Hello all, I'm just querying if anyone's attempted to stream off icecast over wireless onto devices such as photos/mp3 players, As these devices are finally coming onto the market with wifi then I'm sure they will play an important part in any distribution for University Radio stations such as the one I'm part of running. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

It uses a USB sound card and MPD. This makes for a very cheap (~50 euros) and flexible embedded Icecast/Vorbis player. Leo
