...d link an overview of 6 hardware audio encoders (Link to pmg file via WeTransfer http://we.tl/w0H6HJsxLd ). All offer various output formats, not all matching ICECAST input requirements. Not all offer an authentication on mount level. Price ranges from EURO 350 to 1.000. I like your idea of OSHW. But for now I am looking for the best alternative available (focus on max audio quality, medium to low budget) in the market as is. Thanks and best regards, Maarten Van: Thomas B.

...; brands, or perhaps even built one yourself (Raspberry..)? Personally I'd outright discard the RPi, due to its many design deficiencies and low performance. Coincidentally I've been recently looking into various aspects of a hardware based Icecast source, preferably open source hardware (OSHW conformant, rpi isn't), native Ethernet (USB based sucks), decent audio codec, preferably not just Line-in but also balanced inputs. I have some devices based on the Qualcomm Atheros AR9331 that use a decent Wolfson 8918 audio codec. While the codec is capable of also balanced and DMic inputs,...

Hi, In our design of Icecast2, our multiple sources will stream their high quality audio via a dedicated audio encoder (not a computer): Live audio > L+R microphone > pre amplifier > audio encoder > Icecast2 VPS So far I have a shortlist of 4 possible brands of audio encoders: Sonifex PS-SEND, Barix Instreamer, Bric-Link, Outcaster OC100. All have their pro's and cons.
