Hi Nick:

According to some articles I found, addressing input should be done the 
way I have it in those scripts, if I understand correctly, although as 
mentioned earlier, I took that out of the equation entirely with no 
perceived effect.

By the way, just tried --debug on the command line, and still nothing.
Here's the exact output:

  borris@craig:~$ liquidsoap -v --debug -c /etc/liquidsoap/test-input.liq
  borris@craig:~$

As you can see, nothing useful. Yep, I'm confused.
