Hello All, I'm a newbie in icecast and I'm trying to put it runnig nice, (please, be patient with my english) I got it running with shout, with a big directory of mp3 in my playlist, but after few seconds of transmission it begins to fail. My mp3 files are all 128 at 44. May be the bandwidth to low?? Other question is how can I set a low stream to dial conections of 56K with shout, reducing the quality of my transmission to don't get failure in transmission. I have problems with liveice that can change de sample_rate. I got the Lame 3.70 and compiled it with sucess. I moved the binary "lame" to /usr/local/bin/lame. But the liveice, with USE_LAME3 stops at : /usr/local/icecast/etc/playlist 1 opening connection to localhost 8000 Attempting to Contact Server connection successful: forking process And don't proceed. What's the problem??? I'm sure that the lame binary is at /usr/local/bin and running ok. The mpg123 too. Thank you very much, and I'm sorry for my poor english. -- _____________________________________________________________________ \_ \ Denys Sene dos Santos - sene@cptec.inpe.br o/\_ http://www1.cptec.inpe.br/~sene/ - ICQ #31845401 <\__,\ Divisão de Supercomputação - Tel:(012)560-8458 ">. | Centro de Previsao de Tempo e Estudos Climaticos - CPTEC ` .-| Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas Espaciais - MCT/INPE . \ A happy Linux User #71117 . \ .-| --- >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-request@xiph.org' containing only the word 'unsubscribe' in the body.

May be the bandwidth to low??It could be, is your listening client on the same network, or is it over the internet? How fast is the connection between the icecast server and the listening client? It also could be because of a known bug in shout. Don't use shout. Use ices. Shout hasn't been maintained for ages, and ices has taken its place (and is more featureful).> Other question is how can I set a low stream to dial conections > of 56K with shout, reducing the quality of my transmission to don't > get failure in transmission.Ices does this.> I have problems with liveice that can change de sample_rate.

Make sure you have read/write access to the soundcard you specified, there are no extra spaces in the liveice config file at the end of lines, and your soundcard can support the sample rate/channels that you told it to use. Also try changing the config setting to half-duplex if it's set to full-duplex. If all that fails, try "rm -rf /PATH/TO/LIVEICE/.liveice_temp_files".
