This is to announce the release of Icecast 2.4 beta3 (aka 2.3.99.3).
We've landed a nice feature and we're looking forward to testing and
feedback.
As this is a beta release please discuss it on the icecast-dev mailing list.
(Please do NOT cross-post to both lists, do not reply to the icecast mailing
list).
New feature -
Default mount.
This <mount type="default"> allows you to define a global
set of defaults
for ALL mounts.
This way you can use e.g. url-auth for sources and or listeners also for
dynamically generated mounts.
Please test this and also all other new 2.4 features and report to the dev
mailing list with your observations and findings.
Source tar ball:
http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast-2.4-beta3.tar.gz
We will also start to provide experimental Windows binaries soon.
Also there are experimental packages for many distributions built on OBS:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=icecast&project=home%3Adm8tbr
The package repositories are here:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dm8tbr/
Those are not intended for production useand _none_ of the packages
have been tested, so if it scares your cat, bites your dog and blows up -
enjoy the fireworks.
Cheers
Thomas
Hi Thomas,> The package repositories are here: > http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dm8tbr/That package upgraded smoothly from 2.4 beta2 on Ubuntu 10.04, thanks :-)> Those are not intended for production useand _none_ of the packages > have been tested, so if it scares your cat, bites your dog and blows up - > enjoy the fireworks.No explosions yet, but I have noticed a possible problem in 2.4 beta2. With an ogg vorbis stream, near the end of some files, there was an audible glitch. I have not heard this with 2.4 beta3 yet, but if I do, I'll try to isolate the cause. Cheers! Daniel
Hi, quick update. Stephan was so nice and added Icecast win32 builds to his RoarAudio CI sytem. I took this opportunity and put together a 2.4 beta3 archive for windows: http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast_win32_2.4_beta3.zip As this is a beta release please discuss it on the icecast-dev at xiph.org mailing list. (Please do NOT cross-post to both lists, do not reply to the icecast at xiph.org mailing list!) Due to the fact, that we're no longer building using VS6, but are using mingw32 there is currently no graphical user-interface. It wasn't very useful anyway. Most of the information is available through the web interface too. To get up and running, those steps are required: - unpack the zip file - in "etc/icecast.xml" change the "admin-password" and "source-password" values - doubleclick "icecast.bat" You should now see a black window telling you that Icecast is starting. You can now open http://localhost:8000 in your web-browser to see the web interface. Leave the window open to keep Icecast running! If you get Windows error messages saying that it prevented icecast to run, you might need to right click on the "icecast.bat", chose "properties" and then click "Unblock". Also depending on Windows version and active firewall you might get a pop-up message and will need to confirm, that you want to give Icecast access to your local network AND the Internet. If you notice any problems while running Icecast, please let us know! Cheers Thomas
