Or you could try playing the stream with mpg123 -s http://url, and pipe this into ices, set up to take pcm input from stdin. You might have to pipe through sox as well to get the format right for ices. -- http://www.niftybits.ukfsn.org/ remove 'n-u-l-l' to email me. html mail or attachments will go in the spam bin unless notified with [html] or [attachment] in the subject line.
