I found the problem, and it lies with icecast. If I set sleep_ratio to 0, I get no problems with icecast reading data from the socket. I spent a while working out that after a certain length of time, ices started falling over when the thread reading the socket in icecast wasn't waking up in time so send() in ices started blocking.

Hi, does anybody set up an icecast server delivering streams > 160KBit/s ? I tried that with liveice and shout but in both cases the stream stutters very much. So, I have eliminated the Net (stream to localhost), the CPU (P3/800 should be fast enough), and lame (can encode 320kBit/s 3 times faster then the wav has secs). So the Problem should be icecast. can anybody please enlight me?

Alright , once again, thank you for all the help , it has been interesting. I got ices to work successfully , except for using lame.h , i for the life of me , can not get it to include it , no matter what version ( i have tried from 3.66 to 3.70 ) and can not get it to include it. ( heh i started using 2.* series and have not figured out it is not included :P. The other issue i find i hear about

I am trying to stream various 320kbps MP3s across my 10Mbps LAN. Either locally or across the network, freeamp and xmms prefetch a chunk, then play it, then fetch another chunk etc. No continuous streaming. shout gets a lot of !s between its "."s when sending the file to icecast. Any ideas? -- Always hardwire the explosives -- Fiona Dexter quoting Monkey, J. Gregory Keyes, Dark

Hi all, I'm afraid that having spent yet another entire day floundering around in the world of icecast, I've really now got to the point of asking a difficult question. I set up an icecast server back in early 1999, and it seemed to work fine for months. We had a server crash here that meant I had to go and reget the sources to rebuild, and ever since then it has been nothing but

Have you tried to change the sleep_ratio value in the icecast.conf file to 0? I hade to change that to stop the stuttering when streaming 320Kbit/s mp3 over my local 10Mbit LAN. Im using ices-0.0.1.beta5 and icecast Version 1.3.8.beta2. This is running on a P2 266 with 64MB RAM under Debian 2.2. One question also... Do someone have cros...

Using icecast 1.3.10 and ices 0.1.0. Read in the archives about adding sleep_ratio 0 to the conf, which I did, with no success. I'm streaming and listening on the same system. However every few seconds there are two quick breaks in the stream, at a very consistent pace. I'm streaming MP3's with this result. No re-encoding done, just straight streaming. I set my bitra...

...e money and get the non-open source version of that > something that will run on my Linux box and work ?? you can get the not-open-source version free from shoutcast.com. Your symptoms imply that you may be trying to stream high-bitrate MP3s? (that would be 160kbit+). For starters, try setting sleep_ratio to 0 in icecast.conf. Although it burns more CPU it may save you some grief.

Has anyone been successful getting an icecast webcast going under Solaris? I have tried several times using different versions of icecast, ices, shout and solaris, but have never been able to get it working without seg. faults, or glitching, or other problems. -- ........................................................................
