In addition, I'm getting a segmentation fault when encoding at bitrates <= 44000. Is this a known issue or a limitation? Using gdb (gdb ices) I get: (gdb) run ices-playlist.xml Starting program: /usr/local/bin/ices ices-playlist.xml [New Thread 1024 (LWP 7503)] [New Thread 2049 (LWP 7504)] [New Thread 1026 (LWP 7505)] Program received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault. [Switching to Thread 1026 (LWP 7505)] 0x4011b17f in drfti1 () from /usr/lib/libvorbis.so.0 (gdb) /usr/lib/libvorbis.so.0 is the one that came packaged in the RPM from vorbis.com. However, earlier this morning I was using the latest CVS version (latest as of this morning) of libvorbis and got the same error. Here is a config snippet used to get the above: <instance> <hostname>mystreamer.net</hostname> <port>9000</port> <password>changeme</password> <mount>/alpha40.ogg</mount> <reconnectdelay>2</reconnectdelay> <reconnectattempts>5</reconnectattempts> <maxqueuelength>80</maxqueuelength> <encode> <managed>1</managed> <nominal-bitrate>44000</nominal-bitrate> <!-- <minimum-bitrate>40000</minimum-bitrate> --> <maximum-bitrate>44000</maximum-bitrate> <samplerate>44100</samplerate> <channels>2</channels> </encode> </instance> As soon as I push nominal up to 45000, It works, but still not constant. It fluctuates between 30 and 70kbps! I'm combing through the code now, but I'm kind of learning C at the same time. I'll try to be as much help as possible. Thank you (I'm not complaining; vorbis is great!), Darian -- D.

I have got ices running with quality -1 (and on my roommates crappy computer speakers it sounds damn near the real thing - better than FM radio anyway)... I'm just wondering if it's posible to configure it with a maximum bitrate, or a nominal bitrate. i.e. to use managed bitrates instead of quality (I know it's a no no, but this is streaming!).

Yeah, it's definitely crashing. I'm also getting crashes when I try to reencode at a bit rate less than 48000. This is without <managed />.
