Bug Description

As an internet DJ, it would be good to be able to load the previous DJ's stream in through mixxx, then transition over to my music at the end of their song. This allows for seamless transition. I would very much like the ability to load a stream in as a source.

I use Mixxx on Mint Linux 17.2 on a Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-2630QM CPU @ 2.00GHz.

There might be a tricky chance using jack, if there is a jack compatible stream listener.
You can start Mixxx, connect the Aux inputs to the system capture.
After that you can reconnect the inputs to the jack stream listener using QJackCtrl.

This is a bit hard, since Mixxx is not a native Jack client Bug #1172299

In any case it would be better to handle the whole use case inside Mixxx.

This is possible without jack using the ALSA looback device
Configure your system sound (pulse) to use the loopback device. Catch the Stream by one of the Mixxx Aux inputs.
