I also tried installing Icecast 1.31 ... the config file claims its
relaying capabilities aren't very well tested and I can verify this.
But now I'm concerned that even 2.0 won't work for me in relaying.
I'm trying to relay multiple streams from a cluster these hardware
encoding devices:
http://www.audioactive.com/products/realtime_enc/rte_ovw.html
...to do so you need to pull the file:
http://hostname:port/l3audio.m3u
In my case I've set up a test stream from one of these boxes at:
http://56k.pulverradio.com:80/l3audio.m3u
...would anyone be interested in trying to relay this for me from an
Icecast 2.0 server to see if it works? 1.31 definitely doesn't.
Thanks..
-Ian.

I quick try at relaying got the following : WARN connection/connection.c Content-type "audio/x-mpeg" not supported, dropping source I'm not an expert on standards, so I cannot say if this content type is an actual valid content type...but adding it to icecast is a trivial one line addition to format.c....which you certainly could do.... oddsock At 08:28 PM 5/10/2004, you wrote:>I also tried installing Icecast 1.31 ... the config file claims its >relaying capabilities aren't very well tested and I can verify this. >But now I'm concerned that even 2.0 won't work for me in relaying. > >I'm trying to relay multiple streams from a cluster these hardware >encoding devices: > > http://www.audioactive.com/products/realtime_enc/rte_ovw.html > >...to do so you need to pull the file: > > http://hostname:port/l3audio.m3u > >In my case I've set up a test stream from one of these boxes at: > > http://56k.pulverradio.com:80/l3audio.m3u > >...would anyone be interested in trying to relay this for me from an >Icecast 2.0 server to see if it works? 1.31 definitely doesn't. > >Thanks.. > >-Ian. > >--- >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.

You've given a URL to an m3u file, which CONTAINS the stream URL. Icecast 2.0 can't currently do this. Adding it would be fairly straightforward, except... this server is seriously busted, and it doesn't give a valid HTTP response. However, if the URL doesn't change (it's http://192.246.69.155:80/l3audio.mp3 currently), you can just set up icecast to relay this. 2) actually relaying the stream from that URL. This _should_ work fine with icecast 2.0, except for one minor thing. The server sends it with a Content-Type header of "audio/x-mpeg". It should be "audio/mpeg", and icecast doesn't recognise the x- form. Here's a simple patch (untested) that should make it work.

I've been working with AudioActive the last couple of days to fix their behaviour... looks like they're going to update their firmware EPROMs. What are the chances that Michael's fix below could be incorporated into a future version, so that all those boxes without the Firmware upgrade will work? -Ian. <p>On 10-May-04, at 7:20 PM, Michael Smith wrote:> On Tuesday 11 May 2004 11:28, Ian Andrew Bell wrote: >> I also tried installing Icecast 1.31 ... the config file claims its >> relaying capabilities aren't very well tested and I can verify this. >> But now I'm concerned that even 2.0 won't work for me in relaying. >> >> I'm trying to relay multiple streams from a cluster these hardware >> encoding devices: >> >> http://www.audioactive.com/products/realtime_enc/rte_ovw.html >> >> ...to do so you need to pull the file: >> >> http://hostname:port/l3audio.m3u >> >> In my case I've set up a test stream from one of these boxes at: >> >> http://56k.pulverradio.com:80/l3audio.m3u >> >> ...would anyone be interested in trying to relay this for me from an >> Icecast 2.0 server to see if it works? 1.31 definitely doesn't. >> > > There are two problems here: > > 1) Getting the actual stream URL.
