Which DSP are you running to feed your stream? (on winamp I am assuming) If you are using the new shoutcast 1.8.2 DSP, it has had a lot of problems with super high CPU load and memory leaks. Try Oddcast instead (unless you can run ices or darkice) using VBR Mp3 streaming. Nothing but happy times here on a win2k dual p2 333 with winamp (2.74) and Oddcast DSP Beta 25 connected to KasterBlaster

How long has that system been up? Back when I was using Winamp/Win98 as a stream source it would do that after a day or two. Sometimes closing & restarting Winamp would help - more often I'd need to reboot. Win2000 would probably work better - of course ices on Linux would be best :-) -bg ----- Original Message ----- From: "Moritz Grimm" <gtgbr@gmx.net> To:

Hey folks. I know tags aren't anyone's favorite subject, but I'd like to make a suggestion for a tag that I think is quite important -- a quality tag. So important, I think, that oggenc really ought to automatically create one when the -q option is used. As all of us know, in the Vorbis codec the quality of the stream is often a more important (and more informative) value than the

Not much more to say, thanks a lot to all developers for your hard work!

Hi! Propably a stupid question, but where can I get those brandnew encoders from? It'd be great if someone could post those URLs to the list for people like me who don't read any forums (no time, no fun :P). Thanks in advance! Obtw, CVS would be fine, too ... but as long as the new code isn't merged to the main branch I feel pretty lost searching for it. Any help here would also be

Hi, <p>John Zitterkopf sent a mail to his beta-testers and registered users about the "Consumer Broadband and Digital Television Promotion Act" containing this link: http://www.vanshardware.com/articles/2002/03/020325_CBDTPA/020325_CBDTPA.htm Although I'm not an American, I find it quite interesting and disturbing, which is why I want to share it to the list.

Hi! On March 17th I posted a message on this list concerning an artifact bug in beta4 that is audible in all available bitrates. It was this rumbling sound in the bass area. I made a demo clip, which still is available at http://www.stud.uni-karlsruhe.de/~us87/ogg/vorbis_bassrumble_demo.rar and that contains both the original .WAV and an .OGG @ 350kbps. This archive is 2.1 MB large. Today, I

Hi, maybe this is of interest for someone out there. I found that taking the difference between an original sample and its decoded Vorbis counterpart is a cool way to mangle sounds (especially voice samples get a nice weird touch :] ). A side effect is that the result is not only exactly what information the encoder omits, it also contains things that it adds to the sample (artifacts). Leaving

Hi, <p>here's my €0.02 on that topic. First of all, all those new tags are total overkill to be standardized. They're only useful for people who both tag OGG files for a living and listen to classical music only. Imagine what will happen when the Jazz fans, and the Techno fans, and the Rock fans and who knows else demands his very own, customized + standardized set of tags. And

Icecast2 compiles on OpenBSD 3.2 with the steps outlined by Moritz (thanks for that). I'm running into problems streaming ogg files from the fileserve directory, although serving mp3 files from the same directory happens without a hitch...again, both work fine on a Debian system. I'll try building the ogg and vorbis libraries from source to see if that fixes anything (they are

Perhaps, if that is the only requirement to have a fully-functional streamer. Unfortunately, I believe this is not sufficient for the user base. So, if the

Here is some code i wrote to send a mp3 file to a shoutcast server, with a little modification im sure you could change it and use it to connect to icecast2 and write various things etc... not sure but here it is ------------------------------------------------------ <?php $port = '8000'; $ip = '127.0.0.1'; $fileplay = './whatever.mp3'; $password = 'changme'
