I am streaming mp3 to an Icecast 2 server. The stream works well with Winamp, xmms, and Windows Media Player, but Real Player runs for a couple seconds and blows up. The newest Linux version doesn't blow up, but emits a sharp scratching noise about every 2 seconds. Has anyone made this work? --- >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.

It's unlikely realplayer requests them but can't deal with them correctly.

Maybe that can only be done in Icecast1? --- >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.
