Logs indicate everything's running correctly, my player says I'm connected, and the Web page for the server says it's playing files, but there's no audio. Strange. Any thoughts? Did I possibly convert the MP3's to Ogg Vorbis incorrectly?

Strange. Any thoughts?Which player are you using? If it's not a web browser, then most desktop players are notoriously horrible at content-type sensing (they ignore HTTP headers and go for "file extension"), so make sure your mountpoint name ends in ".ogg".> Did I possibly convert > the MP3's to Ogg Vorbis incorrectly?Do the files play back directly fine? e.g. using ogg123, vlc, or avplay Cheers Thomas
Thomas, Do you by chance know which players are ignoring the content-type headers? I have done quite a bit of testing for that exact issue but haven't ran into any problems. Perhaps I am testing the wrong players. Thanks, Brad Isbell brad at musatcha.com http://www.musatcha.com On Fri, Nov 21, 2014 at 7:49 AM, "Thomas B.

We may have to revert to IceS 0.4 because normally the audio stream is in MP3 format, but when IceS takes over when there is no live programming, it requires the files be in Ogg Vorbis now. I suspected this would be a problem for us. I thought that if files were in Ogg format, IceS would send them to Icecast and Icecast would re-encode them or otherwise handle them appropriately.
