If you have more than one ie: /ices /ices2 /ices3 Does this allow you to serve more users? Thanks!

Here are some specs on the problem I've been experiencing with mine. Any advice? Have searched the archive for this and seen only one other person with the same issue however there was no reply to his post. Here goes. I installed icecast version: 1.3.10 with shout version: 0.8.0 on my Redhat 7.1 700Mhz CPU with 128Mb of RAM. Got the streaming to work however I keep seeing messages such as the following from debug 3: [small excerpt] -> [15/Jul/2001:11:31:05] [5:Source Thread] DEBUG: Kicking trailing clients [1] on id 48-> [15/Jul/2001:11:31:05] [5:Source Thread] Clearing cid 48 -> [15/Jul/2001:11:31:05] [5:Source Thread] DEBUG: Kicking trailing clients [1] on id 49-> [15/Jul/2001:11:31:05] [5:Source Thread] Clearing cid 49 ... etc. This interupts the stream badly and will force WinAmp or XMMS to drop my server and go to the next selection in the users playlist (if it exists) I have modified my default_bitrate variable in the shout.conf file to 24k as the documentation suggests however T1 connections and cable connections keep buffering the file which causes a delay. I have also changed it to every iteration of 24k all the way up to 128k again. (ie. 24k, 48k, 96k...) If there is more information needed please ask and I will provide. Server_info: Runtime Configuration: Using nanosleep() as sleep method Using 64 chunks of 8192 bytes for client backlog Using linux own gethostbyname_r() and getaddrbyname_r(), which is good. Using posix signal interface to block all sign Thanks, Natr Thomas Kirk wrote:> On Fri, Jul 20, 2001 at 11:13:18AM -0400, AJones! wrote: > >> Where can you get libshout?

It should affect your overall performance at least not to the worse :) We are running 18 diffrent mountpoints feeding the icecast server over 100mbit local network. No Problems at all? -- Venlig hilsen/Kind regards Thomas Kirk ARKENA thomas@arkena.com http://www.arkena.com What's this script do? unzip ; touch ; finger ; mount ; gasp ; yes ; umount ; sleep Hint for the answer: not everything is computer-oriented. Sometimes you're in a sleeping bag, camping out.
