We worked with ClubCastLive in 2000. It was very very cool. One of the reasons they went out of business was that they had to support DSL lines into all the venues, which was of course very expensive. What we're doing is using Wifi, and it's currently only planned to operate for five nights, using loaned equipment and comped bandwidth. We'd love for it to be percieved as really cool and valuable and have someone step up to buy the equipment and future bandwidth, make agreements with the clubs, and make this a full-year-round feature similar to ClubcastLive. Just thought I'd share...

I remember working with a company called clubcastlive.com who were essentially doing the same thing - always wondered what happened to them - I guess as an internet company they went out of business.

You can do in-depth audio analysis to try and guess, but that's WAY outside the scope of icecast. If you've got metadata updates synchronised well to the actual stream (rare - but it's not uncommon to be close enough), you can hook into the metadata updates (see handle_metadata_request() in connection.c, and a bunch more stuff in format_mp3.c), and you might assume that those are equivalent to song endings. You may be better off getting song info from the source program, and doing your own external synchronisation to icecast listener counts, etc. <p>Mike --- >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-dev-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.
