similar to: icecast strangeness...

I've been running classic icecast + liveice for some time now (several years) without problems. A couple days ago, the station manager (NPR affiliate) came to me and asked if we could 'inject' a static file into the stream. Basically what he wants is for the client to first receive a static file (requesting donations of course) and then on to the live stream (*not* intermittently).

i know with icecast2/ices , karl heyes has some example config files for mixing live/static content ( if i recall correctly ) . however, what i had done in the past is add the static file to the .pls prior to the live mount . if you generate the .pls files on demand , this would work . ALSO , i'm quite sure that both icecast1/2 support intro/outtro files , etc .. this may achieve the same

I have Icecast 1.3.11 working just fine. Now I want to try to migrate to the Ogg Vorbis thing, for purposes of static file streaming. With 1.3.11 as a default install on RedHat 7.1, would I install v2.0 as a new product or overlay / delete the v1.3.11 install?

Hi! I'm running icecast 1.3.11 and liveice under Mandrake 7.2 Right now I don't have a sound card, but I will. Also I need to reencode the MP3s that I'm sending to the icecast server. I followed the instructions but it doesn't seem to work, when I first run icecast and after liveice I got this: from icecast Accepted encoder on mountpoint /icy_0 from localhost.localdomain. 1

Hi! I want to realize a realtime DJ Battle where some DJs enter in a virtual cypher and start a HipHop Battle. For example, there are 5 DJs an 5 listener in the Jury.

Can i realize it with icecast? thanks, buelent -- buelent caliskan

Hi all, I just wanted to know where to find icecast2. I've downloaded icecast 1.3.11 and it looks wonderful, and works fine as far as I've tested it. However I want to be able to stream ogg instead of mp3. I've search "icecast2" on sourceforge, freshmeat, and google but to no avail. Google's "I'm feeling lucky" sends me directly to

Don't know if this has been covered or even asked, but how can you allow access to the streams to those on WebTV and those using Windows Media Player. We're using Icecast and Ices. Thanks in advance!

Hi all, is icecast good for me? I am interested in delivering some audio + mpeg4 animation through the internet (live streaming). my mpeg4 animation is supposed to be smaller than the audio o my questions are: - would icecast, as it is, support a different kind of stream (my own type) or do i have to mux the audio and video before into a special format? or maybe it supports only audio? - it

I have installed lame, and its working well, How to choose CD mode in liveice? I have just seen with or without live input (soundcard).

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello! First, sorry if my english is not very correct :-) I'm a spanish student making a streaming project under Linux and I'd like to use Vorbis format but I have a problem. Now I have installed Icecast, LiveIce and the Lame encoder and they work... but in mp3 format. Lame don't have any problem with Vorbis but Icecast and LiveIce

Hi list, I am wanting to stream audio live to my sound card, have it compressed on the fly and sent to my icecast server. I had a look at darkice (http://darkice.sourceforge.net) but I didn't seem to be able to get that to work, the stream skipped seriously and no config options or different encoder I used managed to get it sounding normal. The machine I am using to do the live encoding

Hi, I am trying to stream two different sources with two soundcards using liveice and icecast, all from single Linux box. Can anyone tell me if this is possible? I tried creating two sets in the liveice config file where I specified different devices. No erros but the latter source was streamed on both mount points. Running two instances of liveice talking to one instance of icecast failed.

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 hello! does anyone have patch for liveice that the saved files (SAVE_FILE directive in the config file) don't get overwritten if liveice is stopped and started? i think about something like adding the current date and time to the filename... or ist there some other solution concerning dump (or save) files? if there is no patch around, i

are there any decent alternatives to live audio streaming [via. soundcard] to darkice or liveice? after a few days fighting with darkice, i finally managed to bring it up only to see that it takes 55% of my cpu just to encode one 128kbps stream using libmp3lame. a similar 128kbps stream only takes up 36% cpu using liveice. maybe i have something configured wrong, but i was sortof expecting darkice

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
