Icecast - Nov 2009 - running icecast on top of hadoop

Hi,

I have MP3 files stored inside hadoop's HDFS.

Is there anyway of running icecast on top of those MP3 files ?

Is there any help on how to do it?

Thanks,
jb

that is of no relevance to icecast itself as it is not meant to handle any sort
of file directly (for primary streaming purposes)

sure get any source client that can read mp3 files and encode them into a
stream.
We recommend encoding into an ogg/vorbis stream. The encoded stream is
independent of the file formats used anyway as reencoding is a necessary step in
most source clients.

there should be plenty of howtos on the topic of playlist based source clients
feeding icecast.

possible source clients include but are not limited to:
liquidsoap, mpd, ezstream, ...
