Ok, I'm using icecast2 (latest cvs as of maybe 3 hours ago) and darkice
.9.1 all compiled under debian/sid with gcc 2.95.4. Everything works
ok, as long as I'm using ogg123 to listen to my stream.
using xmms (1.27 in in debian sid) it'll buffer up to 50% and then start
over again seemingly indefinitely. with winamp 2.80 in winxp, I get
nothing but silence, I'd normally thing I was getting nothing, but I can
see a steady stream of data on my network graph, the winamp title shows
HTTP 200/OK.
Does anyone have any insight into what's going on? Or know how to get
more feed back to figure out this prob? It seems that winamp and xmms
have exactly squat for a debug mode for normal users.
Is anyone else using this setup with success?

Make sure your mountpoint ends with .ogg to avoid the bug. (ices2 issues a warning if it isn't, because this is a common problem) Michael <p>--- >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 at xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

(ices2 issues > a warning if it isn't, because this is a common problem)<p>Doh, I looked for a good hour or two trying to track that down. Glad I just asked and didn't needlessly spend longer than I had to. It works great now, thanks! I guess I'll have to take to look at xmms.org and winamp.com now to see if they're aware of the problem, I did a bit of digging at bugs.xmms.org before my initial email, but didn't find anything. Thanks again. <p><p>--- >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.
