[Icecast] [Icecast-dev] Icecast 2.4 beta5 release
This is to announce the release of Icecast 2.4 beta5 (aka 2.3.99.5).
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, PLEASE reply to icecast-dev at xiph.org only).
* Updated web interface to be fully XHTML compliant and mobile
friendly. Credit to ePirat
* Send charset in HTTP headers for everything,
excluding only file-serv and streams.
* Documentation updates
* Backed out a patch that caused bad behaviour in combination
with the -b command line option.
Please test this and also all other new 2.4 features and report to the
dev mailing list with your observations and findings.
We've spent considerable time looking for memory leaks using Valgrind.
While no tool is perfect, we believe that we've found all leaks related
to source connections. All other memory activity is likely related
to buffers and should plateau according to settings.
We expect the next or latest the following release to be RC1.

Windows build:

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:

2.4 beta5 is not intended for production use and _none_ of the packages
have been tested, so if it scares your cat, bites your dog and blows up
- enjoy the fireworks.
Cheers
Thomas

It looks like you've fixed them all! :) Here is a screenshot analogous to the previous ones: http://ftp.wombat.org.ua/IceCast-2_4_beta5-memory_leak.png Thank you for your work on this issue!
