Hi! We have a little problem. We have to get 4 channels through a Dual-ISDN Line (128k). MP3 sounds awful (tested with lame 24k). Real sounds good, but I cannot encode 4 mono streams from a 4 channel soundcard, only 2 stereo streams. So I tested Vorbis. I encoded a 22050Hz mono file with -b 112, but this has a average bitrate of 59kbps. the 44100 mono file is 94kbps in average and the stereo 44100 108kbps. It was the same song converted with sox. The stereo file is only 14kbps bigger than the stereo file. How could I achive lower bit rates without reducing the sample rate below 22050Hz? I wonder how good Vorbis is at lower bitrates. At 60kbps Vorbis and Lame sounds nearly the same. Is there a streaming program vor vorbis and icecast? I compiled icecast 2.0, but cannot test it with live streaming (I was not able to compile example). Are there any differences to the icecast 1.3.7 protocol (for the encoder side)? --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'vorbis-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

[vorbis] annyone interested in "ogg streaming" maillinglist
... maybe through yahoogroups (since it is much easier to organise with archives and software updates + example)? Please end direct e-mail to me (and I will collect names for subscription) so the whole group would not be spamed because of this .
