Icecast - Aug 2004 - ices & savefile

Thanks Karl, I will give it a try.

Do I have to install your modified libshout or isn't it required if I am
live streaming?

Cheers,

Matt

Got it all compiled nicely.. I called it ices2 so I can keep using my
existing ices executable as well..

Tried getting it up and running but it seems to be having trouble
connecting to my soundcard.. sample from ices.log

<p>With the CVS ices however:

I checked and I definately didn't have the CVS ices running at the same
time.. I thought that might have been the problem but it wasn't! Hmmm...

Thanks for all your help Karl!

<p>it is required, there's more in that ices than just a more complete
savefile support. The threading structure changed which is something
that the CVS libshout (or v1.0) doesn't support (non-blocking sockets).
However I've made that modified libshout to be backward compatible with
CVS (v1.0) so any existing libshout uses should work as expected.
