Icecast dev - Aug 2004 - [Interopcast-general] about translatingdocumentation, but not only documentation.

Just a few weeks ago, I was thinking of writing a streaming source using 
libshout and portaudio. I was also considering LADSPA support, to do 
some minor post-processing before encoding. However, I'm currently 
developing on Mac OS X, and LADSPA's shared library plugin model has 
some issues here to be resolved.

Another nice feature I have given a thought on is incorporating 
AudioCompress, a pretty nice volume normalizer which can be found at 
<http://trikuare.cx/code/AudioCompress.html>, originally an XMMS plugin. 
I often find myself feeding the encoder computer with a colder line 
input to prevent clipping but want to produce a hotter encoded stream. 
This feature would be nice to have.

Before I saw this advice of adding PortAudio to IceS, I was going to 
begin implementing these ideas as a new project, tentatively called 
"PortStreamer." I'm quite enthusiastic about this eye catching
project
name, but I'm also open to the possibility of dropping this project in 
favor of enhacing IceS instead.

Comments or suggestions?

It's a question of getting the compiler environment setup to do the port.
Much
of libshout and ices2 are ready but, certain things like live input are
different
from whats in windows.

Hi all. I just joined this list but have been working with Karl H and Arc
on IRC for a while on using ices/icecast in a radio studio in new york.
I'm pretty involved in Linux audio and have a good superficial
understanding of what's available in the Linux world for audio.

To keep this thread on topic, I've mentioned to Karl H before but I guess
it would be worthwile to mention here that there is an audio I/O library
called PortAudio. It is cross platform in the sense that it is a common
API for audio I/O across Windows, Linux, MacOS X and other UNIXes.

I'm part of a OSS project called Audacity, which uses PortAudio
exclusively for all audio I/O. I have it running successfully on Linux,
MacOS X and Windows, all compiled from the same source tree.

I think if Ices could incorporate PortAudio it would handle some serious
portability issues.

And now for the shamless promotion. Listen to Democracy Now! every weekday
at 8AM EST on the Global Indymedia radio stream at
liveradio.indymedia.org. DN is a daily hour long news show covering
current events the mainstream American media sometimes overlooks.

last time I checked, the use of libao (which was a completly horrible task 
to port to windows) was the reason why ices2 didn't carry over to win32...

Maybe libao is awkward to port I don't about that, but ices2 isn't using
that lib.  As far as I'm aware libao is only for audio output so
wouldn't be of much use to ices2.

ices2 doesn't use libao (libao doesn't do anything that ices2 could
use).
