It _is_ streaming, you just aren't accessing it right. You can't just point your browser to a stream. The browser will always download the content, and then pass it off to the helper application. If that

they are the same for practical purposes, but I believe i started pushing m3u because it was better supported, or less application fought over it, or something. it's probably different today, but i still use m3u. M3U is simpler than pls. just a file/url per line, that's it. for a sstream a pls file would look like: http://your.server.com:8000/mymount and that's it. jack. On

Hi: IIRC, the oddcast DSP plugin (http://www.oddsock.org) will allow mountpoints (or at least oddsock said it would soon). Samcast apparently already does, but I forget the URL for this (it's in the list archive somewhere). These are winamp DSP plugins.

I tried a pls file and it appears to work. What's the difference (in practical terms) and where do I find the documentation on M3U files?

A mountpiont is a fragment of a URL (often referred to as a URI) like '/stream1' or '/my_cool_stuff/stream.ogg' You tell shout, ices, or whatever what mountpoint to use.

Once again, I'm clueless as to what is going on because I don't have the source or logs to yp.icecast.org. I am touching yp.icecast.org fine: [14/Feb/2002:01:39:22] directory_touch_xa([yp.icecast.org:80]) completed...server id = 69 but my radio station isn't shown.

Hmmm... Maybe I wasn't clear. This is a public Web site. Some people are using Netscape, most using IE... All different kinds of media players, mostly WinAmp, Real, WMP, and iTunes. What I'm looking for is a way for the media player to be launched automatically. If I choose "Open from this location" from the link, WinAmp DOES open. .pls files *are* mapped to WinAmp, I'd

I'm curious what method y'all are using for getting your streams going on the client. We've been using a hyperlink to the stream like this: http://www.fatfreeradio.net:8000/playlist.pls?mount=/hifi&file=dummy.pls It works okay but people get prompted to save or open the file. It would be better if it just opened their streaming player each time, without the dialog. Anyone know

Hello, Is it still possible to cluster al icecast servers with the same stream to the icecast yp or icecast directory? I get strange results when i configure this, like the stats from server A but streamlink to server B insteat of an m3u file as stated in the docs. Kind regards, Dennis

hello, liveice just won't work for me anymore, it crashes and thus I won't waste my time on it anymore. thus, what's the url with the install instructions for iceS. If I'm not mistaken, it was somewhere hidden on i.cantcode.com? thanks, t. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this

I'm a newbie. I've just installed Icecast2 and am streaming to it successfully via Nicecast (great app BTW). My problem is that the stream from Icecast2 comes through as an .m3u which does not correctly open on any of the Mac or Windows machines that I've tried. When broadcasting directly from Nicecast the file type is a .pls which both iTunes and WMP seem to deal with just fine
