[icecast-dev] Can't listen to a stream from icecast-kh
Yes, but I'm also unable to read that stream from VLC on OS X and Windows Whamb works on OS X, QCD works on windows. If it is confirmed that VLC is not working with that header, then we may ask VLC team to handle that header ? I downloaded the latest Realplayer, but I'm unable to play my stream... is it really possible? or perhaps it is only for mp3? in that case why not to send that header ICY only for mp3? Is there some other reasons? Thanks Chris Karl Heyes wrote:>On Wed, 2004-05-26 at 23:15, Iceuse - Kris wrote: > > >>Hello, >> >>I have some troubles with the latest icecast kh.

Is there some other reasons?that is certainly possible, we don't want to have many special cases but using ICY for mp3 only would not resolve the wget issue. karl. <p><p>--- >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 When I replace ICY 200 by HTTP 200 then : - wget works - videolan VLC works (i thing its bad to send headers that it doesn't understand as it is one of the few crossplateform ogg players) So, I suggest, either to put something in the code to handle a different response header per stream type, or to put something in the config file (but then icecast admin have to bother with that) Or, keep as it is if it makes sense (I don't know the importance of having or not ICY) and then, see with videloan.org to update their player. One more question : is having ICY instead of HTTP helping firewalls to drop these musical packets ? Because with HTTP, it cannot make the difference I think (not sure at all, just a question) <p>What do you think about that?
