<p>yeah, your resample in-rate is supposed to be 44100 not 22050

Duh, I had assumed it took the sample rate from the stream directly
before it and was not a standard rate. That's what you get for assuming.
Makes an *ass" of *u* and *me*.
I will fix that now. Thanks.

Thats the sort of thing I've sorted in my mods, the samplerate is passed
with the audio so some run-time info can be supplied to the backend.

Hmmm, I guess more is incorrect here than I thought. I changed the
resample in-rate to be 44100 like it should have have been.
But still no joy. Here is the error message as shown in the error.log
file. I'm looking things over and am not seeing my error.
It looks like the audio resample for this particular stream is good.

The "login failed: success" message is especially cryptic.
It loks like the smallband option which is the smallest now works, but
the mid-range or lowband option never initializes. Funky...
Am I taking variables from the first set and is it ignoring the
mid-range set and going directly on to the last?
Just looking for any suggestions or hints.
On a positive note, the dual streaming works great still. Just can't get
the smaller third stream working.
Thanks.

I didn't spot this before, your card/driver likes a samplerate of
41000hz, but 44100 is probably what you want.

I would suggest using the <quality> tags and not the
<nominal-bitrate>
tags as the latter forces managed modes, therefore higher CPU usage.

notice a slight mismatch here, 44100 expected but audio is actually
41000

this matches the actual input rate, but I guess you'll want to change
this as well.

<p>> The "login failed: success" message is especially
cryptic.

again check the icecast log to see why the source is dropped.

That sounds like a race to connect type problem, make sure of the max
source count on icecast.
