I'm trying to set up a live stream originating from line-in on my soundcard. I'm attempting to use Icecast2 and Ices2. I've been up and down the configuration. I switched from the line-in method to using .ogg files as source. These .ogg files play find independent of Ices2/Icecast2. Ices2 and Icecast2 are running on the same Redhat 9 machine. In both cases, Winamp appears to connect, and the access log shows a 200 with the data transfer size. The access log also leads me to believe that Ices2 is logging in properly (I'm still using the default passwords). Attached are my config files (ices.xml = line-in config, beck.xml = ogg playlist) and the log files. Any help would be appreciated, I've been looking all over for documentation that addresses this problem. <p><p> -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

You must have the line-in to Record. try with: aumix -l R The aumix program is a mixer that controls the volume, lines in/out , etc. Perhaps you are using another one, but the idea is the same. bye, pau. <p><p><p>--- >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.

Winamp 3 is broken with regard to ogg streaming. It is also discontinued. Get 2.95 (I think that's the latest release). You may need to go to http://classic.winamp.com to get this, even though it's the only current release at the moment.

Well yeah I was. Tried winamp2, and it got rid of a sporadic "prebuffering done" message I was having (I Had fixed this by manually adjusting a prebuffer size within Winamp. I also tried Zinf this morning. In Zinf, I am getting a message stating that the data is corrupted...? I watch my verbose output from Ices, and it's queuing the new song at the appropriate times (one song is 3.5 minutes, the other is 12). So I'm going to assume Ices is good. I've built Icecast from source twice, and it appears to go okay. I didn't get any catastrophic errors during the build. If I shouldn't be seeing the "corrupted data" message in Zinf, what could be wrong with my Icecast2? If anyone has a chance, might they be able to review the error/access log in my first message (in a slightly different thread). -----Original Message----- From: owner-icecast@xiph.org [mailto:owner-icecast@xiph.org] On Behalf Of Geoff Shang Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 7:36 AM To: icecast@xiph.org Subject: Re: [icecast] Looks good on server, no audio on client.

Ensure your mountpoint ends in ".ogg" to work around it.

Thanks for everyone's help so far... Just to bring everyone up to date... - With Winamp2, I seem to be stuck at "connecting..." My logs show a perfect 59 bytes transferred with each connect. Set mountpoint to .ogg extension also. - My logs show various transfer sizes with other clients (depending on how long I'm pseudo-connected. - Using the Ices <savefile> parameter, I can verify that Ices is encoding both the static .ogg files (playlist) and a live line-in stream.>From that file, I'm quite impressed with the quality I may get if I getIcecast2 working! Right now, I'm leaning towards fault lying with my Icecast2 itself. I'm going to triple check my compile and the umpteenth check of the configuration/logs. If anyone knows a sure-shot way of isolating Icecast2's reliability, let me know. -----Original Message----- From: owner-icecast@xiph.org [mailto:owner-icecast@xiph.org] On Behalf Of Michael Smith Sent: Tuesday, September 09, 2003 5:33 PM To: icecast@xiph.org Subject: Re: [icecast] Looks good on server, no audio on client. <p>> In both cases, Winamp appears to connect, and the access log shows a 200> with the data transfer size.
