Hi,
does anybody set up an icecast server delivering streams > 160KBit/s ?
I tried that with liveice and shout but in both cases the stream stutters
very much. So, I have eliminated the Net (stream to localhost), the CPU
(P3/800 should be fast enough), and lame (can encode 320kBit/s 3 times
faster then the wav has secs). So the Problem should be icecast.
can anybody please enlight me?
regards Martin

I also have problems with streams over 160 Kb/s. I use pre encoded mp3 files and ices. I think IceCast sends the mp3 data to slow to the clients. ~~ Med vänliga hälsningar, Patrik Lindahl mailto:ramzeus@home.se Thursday, May 03, 2001, 11:16:46 AM, you wrote: MH> Hi, MH> does anybody set up an icecast server delivering streams > 160KBit/s ?

Your mileage on ices, shout, and liveice may vary, but if you write code around libshout, it will work, as I tested libshout with 192kbps files for days. if you are using liveice, your problems might be related to processor usage. And if you're on a slow machine (read, sub-pentium-2) that might also be the case with any of the tools. jack. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

It's at http://cleo.rug.ac.be:8000/mix it streams out of a FIFO, and apart from the fact that the backend programming sometimes makes shout crash for that, other than that it plays fine. thomas <-*- -*-> Ik zei dat ik voor haar wou sterven en dat vond zij niet fijn Zij hield van dieren en van mensen die in leven wilden zijn <-*- thomas@apestaart.org -*-> URGent, the best radio on the Internet - 24/7 ! - http://urgent.rug.ac.be/ --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

The streaming server, version of icecast, any specials, version of os? Shout, on the same maschine or serving over network? Version of shout? Files encoded with lame? thanks for you help Martin -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Martin Hierling - www.hierling.de - mailto: `echo maNrtOin@hSiePrlAinMg.de | sed 's/[NOSPAM]//g'` ---------------------------------------------------------------- --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

So the Problem should be icecast.Have you tried to change the sleep_ratio value in the icecast.conf file to 0? I hade to change that to stop the stuttering when streaming 320Kbit/s mp3 over my local 10Mbit LAN. Im using ices-0.0.1.beta5 and icecast Version 1.3.8.beta2. This is running on a P2 266 with 64MB RAM under Debian 2.2. One question also... Do someone have crossfading working with ices/icecast or is that only possible if you use a plugin to xmms/winamp/whatever and use that as a source for icecast? // peter jönsson --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

Thankx. I compiled the icecast on my Sun and that works without that. But my Linux box needs the sleep_ratio. gruss Martin -- ---------------------------------------------------------------- /"\ \ / ASCII Ribbon Campaign X Against HTML Mail / \ ---------------------------------------------------------------- - Martin Hierling - www.hierling.de - mailto: `echo maNrtOin@hSiePrlAinMg.de | sed 's/[NOSPAM]//g'` ---------------------------------------------------------------- --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

I'm currently in the process of converting it to the gstreamer system (If you don't know that, check out what it does, it's at gstreamer.net and it even has icecast plugins) and make it more general to handle all types of audio data (though with the normal loss of speed in doing a full decode/mix/encode). thomas <-*- -*-> ik kon liegen ik kon jou bedriegen mezelf verraden zonder spijt <-*- thomas@apestaart.org -*-> URGent, the best radio on the Internet - 24/7 ! - http://urgent.rug.ac.be/ --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
