I am trying to pass an ogg stream through icecast and then from icecast through to winamp. I pass the ogg stream to icecast with the Content-Type = "application/x-ogg" however icecast serves the audio out with Content-Type = "application/ogg" unfortunately winamp seems to only accepts "application/x-ogg" am i missing something, or what's a guy to do? thanks! kendal --- >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.

Hello Kendal, Thursday, March 13, 2003, 8:06:44 PM, you wrote:> I am trying to pass an ogg stream through icecast and then from icecast > through to winamp.> I pass the ogg stream to icecast with the Content-Type = "application/x-ogg"> however icecast serves the audio out with Content-Type = "application/ogg"> unfortunately winamp seems to only accepts "application/x-ogg"> am i missing something, or what's a guy to do?The MIME type of ogg streams has changed recently. "Application/ogg" is correct. Icecast accepts and serves only "application/ogg" now, but winamp seems to be receiving both (I haven't had any problems with winamp 2.81 yet). If you use winamp as the source client with some (possibly oddsock's) plug-in, you have to change it by hand or send a request to the author of the plug-in. I've already sent an e-mail to oddsock about that, but I haven't received any reply yet. I had to change the MIME type in the streamTranscoder's source by hand (that was pretty easy).

Make it clear to developers that their software should support both at least to begin with, or their titles will suddenly stop working when MIME types are registered.
