Icecast - Sep 2015 - Use case question

I'm investigating the build out of a Push to Talk server with multiple
subscribers as part of a mobile app.

Has anyone seen this usecase with Icecast?

Any suggestions or places to look.

Thanks,

That most likely will not work with Icecast, you might want to check out 
alternatives. Icecast is a HTTP streaming server so there will be a 
quite noticeable "lag" of a few seconds (usually 5 to 10), which I
guess
is not desired for your usecase?

Use apps like mumble of Teamtalk, they are build to do what you want to do.

Kind regards,

Dennis

Hi Guys,

Can anyone provide more details about where the lag would occur if I did
try to pursue a push to talk scenario with Icecast.  I'm not sure exactly
how it works now so I'll outline the two potential discussion flows I have
in mind.

Perhaps someone could elaborate on between which steps the 5-10 seconds of
lag would come into play.

Mumble does look like it might be a better fit for what I'm trying to do,
but I still am trying to get a rough understanding of the limitations of
the different options.


*Scenario 1*

   1. You record the message for 30 seconds (T0 to T30)
   2. They listen to your message (T30 to T60)
   3. They reply for 30 seconds (T60 to T90)
   4. You listen to their reply (T90 to T120).


*Scenario 2*

   1. You record the message for 30 seconds + they listen to your message
   (since it is streamed as soon as you speak, T0-T30)
   2. They reply for 30 seconds + you listen to their reply (same
   reasoning, T30-T60)


Thanks guys
