Hello. I have a question. We run a number of public service audio streams. They are picking up in popularity, and it would be nice to take some credit for the bandwidth we are supplying. Lots of people directly linking to us. So I would like to attempt to do something that I've seen done with WMA streams. I would like it so when a listener connects, it plays back a 20 second audio clip

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, We are needing to use icecast to stream a single mp3 _from_the_beginning_ of the file. Using Icecast and Shout, everything works fine, the problem with that is that when you conenct to /default you start listening at whatever point shout is currently playing at. This is not satisfactory at all, the stream must start at the beginning of the

Hi, I've had a few problems with broadcasting an icecast2 playlist with peercast. The problem is that when getting the m3u file, the response isn't terminiated with a newline (\n or \r\n). peercast doesn't particularily like this. I've submitted a patch to peercast for this, but I wonder if icecast2 should add the \r\n to the end. Maybe there's some more buggy software around

I'm terribly sorry if this is off-topic, but I've scoured the web for hours looking for a working .ogg file streamer. I have thousands of ogg files, and I want to be able to set up a playlist, enabling any computer on the network to listen to the stream. Sure, I did it with icecast and liveice when I was using mp3's but now icecast doesn't come with liveice, (I found the source,

Hi - I've heard that Icecast provides a fake "playlist file" along the lines of http://blahblah:8000/listen.m3u or http://blahblah:8000/playlist.pls because Quicktime can't seem to handle the stream without a playlist file to wrap it up. (There may be other reasons.) However, I can't seem to find any documentation about this, and guessing various URLs on my icecast2.0.1

Hi all, I'm new to the streaming audio thing, but have been a linux user for 7 or 8 years. Here's some background: I work in a really EMI-nasty environment that prevents receiving radio broadcasts. In order to listen to sporting events, local news, etc. I planned to set up icecast to stream live audio snatched from a radio at home, and listen to it at work. I installed icecast,

I am a new to all of this icecast stuff. I have two machines on the network behind a router. On the icecast server itself I can click on the playlist link and it works fine using a xmms player within Linux. But it will not work on my windows machine using every other player. When I mouse over the playlist link it says: http://my_ipaddress/playlist.ogg.m3u is this correct? Did I configure it

Hello again No replies regarding memory requirements! I have an idea to provide 1000's of streams without the requirement of 100's of source PC's, and perhaps without even requiring Icecast at all. But I'm not sure if this will work. We will have thousands of 24 hour playlists generated everyday by software I'm developing. If we encode all our audio files at 32kb/s, could

Hi guys. I've been running icecast for awhile, and just upgraded to the latest version. Everything works fine, nice work. Here's the deal, I'm still not sure how to make a clean link to my broadcast. On the icecast.org site, it calls a cgi-bin file called 'gen-mpegurl.m3u.' This always stars up my broadcast nicely. Is there anyway to get the source code to

Okay, this is similar to how the mp3 streaming was. The question is then, what is the MIME type for the playlist itself? For mp3s, it used to be audio/x-mpegurl??

My problem is not with the Icecast server, but with my user's ability to get a decent client to play the streams. I have 3 Icecast streams created using Ices, and the mountpoints have the mp3 extension. My users and I have observed: 1) If Quick Time is brought up by the browser, it skips and chokes on the stream. 2) If Windows Media is brought up by the browser, it will do either of two

Hi, I'm using ezstream to stream a list of mp3 files to my icecast2 server which works great. I'm using a m3u playlist file which ezstream reads when it starts and rereads when it loops. The problem is that this playlist is quite long and I would like to be able to inject a song last minute some where in the playlist. I have two options at the moment to do this: - restart ezstream -
