similar to: [icecast] another Icecast2/Vorbis stream on-line

Greetings: Another test. I've re-encoded a batch of mono 22050 Hz WAVs, average bitrate seems to hang around 30-40 kbps. Icecast.xml is set for three connects, and the URL is here: http://64.108.112.145:8000/shouter.ogg IMO, the sound quality is much better now. Again, the stream should be up for about 45 minutes or so. Please let me know how it works for you... Best regards,

Greetings: I have a streaming Vorbis program on-line now at: http://64.108.112.135:8000/shouter.ogg if anyone would like to test it. I'm using Icecast 2.

That sounds quite good, comparing it to a 24 kbp /16 khz mp3 mono mp3 stream the difference is striking. The XMMS plugin is still quite buggy though, I have to disable my MP3 plugin to get it to work right. josh On Fri, 16 Mar 2001, Dave Phillips wrote: > Greetings: > > Another test.

Connected to the stream just fine with the Winamp plugin & listened for about 20 min. A few dropouts & 1 disconnect - but I'm on a flaky DSL circuit this morning, so that's hardly unexpected. Winamp reported bitrates from 26-31 kb/s. The sound quality was very decent, given the bitrate. I noted a few artifacts in the 6-8 kHz range (cymbals & electric-guitar harmonics) on an

Greetings: Ouch, that's not good. I can tap into the stream just fine with 'xmms http://64.108.112.135:8000/shouter.ogg' but not by clicking on the same address as a link. More debugging ahead... ;) Btw, I've restarted the stream. Thanks for the report ! Best regards, == Dave Phillips The Book Of Linux Music & Sound at http://www.nostarch.com/lms.htm

Greetings: If you're using the latest XMMS (CVS preferably), FreeAmp, Sonique (?), or ogg123 (maybe), please check out this URL for a Vorbis playlist stream: http://64.108.112.34:8000/shouter.ogg The playlist is lengthy, and I've set it to repeat three times, so it will be on-line for a while. Please let me know how well or badly the stream was received, thanks. Best

Greetings: Yes, I've placed another test stream on-line. Thanks to the feedback from members of this list, I've taken a few extra steps. 1) According to DSLReports, my uplink today is 137 kbps. It may actually be a little faster, they say that Netscape's reporting is skewed (and I use Netscape). 2) Thus, I've prepared a set of Ogg files encoded with -b 24 to fit my

Greetings: Okay, here's where I'm at so far. Icecast 2 builds without problems. I edit the icecast.xml config file as seen in the server output below: [root@localhost icecast]# icecast -c conf/icecast.xml <?xml version="1.0"?> <icecast> <location>DLP_House_Of_Sound</location> <admin>dlphilp@bright.net</admin> <limits>

hi, there is a low bitratestream available for testing. it's around 40kbps and it sounds really bad, because it's 11khz stereo :). http://ogg.radiostudio.org:8007/ostream.ogg -- Sent through GMX FreeMail - http://www.gmx.net --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to

Greetings: I've restarted my Vorbis stream in case anyone still wants to test it. Here's the address again: http://64.108.112.145:8000/shouter.ogg Luck in battle !

Greetings: Just a note of thanks to everyone who tested the stream today. I'll experiment a little more tomorrow. Thanks a lot !

Just tried it, crashed WinAmp bad! I just grabbed the Vorbis plugin for WinAmp, it popped up a little banner saying ti was requesting /shouter.ogg, then the CPU started climbing until it pegged at 100%, machine almost froze until I finally was able to kill WinAmp. Not sure why, but that's what happened here. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dave Phillips"
