hello alexander... you may or may not be acquainted with the program otto; it is a web-based jukebox solution. it has the ability to play both locally as well as to an icecast server via ices. however, as there is not a static playlist, ices needs to to exit after streaming an individual song. the author of otto had the following suggestion for stream.c per ices-0.0.1.beta5: --- i modified the

Hi all, I'm currently trying to set up ices2 with icecast2 along with otto, a jukebox interface written in perl. Otto allows the user to kill a song via the web interface, which in turn kills all running instances of ices, rewrites the playlist and launches ices. This has the bad side effect of terminating the client's connection to icecast and leaving a bunch of ices

I've been through this on the list a while back. Unfortunately what you are asking is not possible, nor are the authors of ices interested in solving your problem :) I'd recommend ices-0.0.1.beta5.tar.gz (as recommended by otto's author) and seeing otto/misc/icecast/ices.readme. I use the recommended setup things run great. brian moseley wrote: > > hiya. i'm using ices

ok from the beginning .. the "otto mp3" is a software piece that can take a lot of mp3s , put them in a mysql data base and then can 1. play requests that users make on the web interface out to the sound card 2. stream the song to the browser using icecast and ices. now the icecast and ices in "general" configurations works with either a playlist or mp3s if i am not

Hi Michael, I'll try, but just from looking at the code inside im_playlist.c it doesn't appear to check the pl->nexttrack variable inside the 'while(1)' loop unless it reaches the eof on the playlist file. Honestly I don't understand the ogg function calls, but just wondering if code has to be added to check this. Brant At Tuesday 06:24 PM 3/19/2002, Michael

i have installed ices with lame suport (thanks to all who helped!), and it happily reencodes bitrates. i have installed otto, and that too is brillient however i can't get otto to call ices in such a way that it will reencode stuff streamed thru otto... when i have had ices working with reencoding, i've configured it via the xml config file rather than with command line switches

Before I went out to potentialy reinvent this particular wheel, I figured I'd check to see whether anyone had or could recommend a web-based playlist manager for ices/icecast. The one I've got in mind would take requests, play random tracks in the absence of requests, keep a very limited history and look-ahead... This must have been done before, right? If not, I'll take a stab at

I use the Jukebox program 'otto' (which is really good...), but have been experiencing bugs with 'shout' streaming to IceCast. Thus, I decided to use IceS (yesterday). Otto relies on playing one song at a time (i.e. no playlist), and the streaming program (shout/ices/whatever) to exit after playing it just once. Although the otto author has proviceded a patch which stops IceS from

But maybe getting the maintainer to do it correctly would be nice. This isn't our bug to fix :) jack. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage:

Hi, got a little problem with the current cvs version of ices. I'm invoking it with the following: ices -v -F /home/nick/icetest.pls -h localhost -P <my password> which seems to connect ok, get past password validation, and gives me the following: DEBUG: Sending following information to libshout: DEBUG: Stream: 0 DEBUG: Host: localhost Port: 8000 DEBUG: Password: hack Icy Compat: 0

Hi all I'm Toni from Italy and i have a problem with Icecast2 and IceS. I've get the source code from cvs and i installed them an a linux machine with 2.4.18 kernel (mandrake 8.2) with any problem. I've modified the conf files of icecast2 and IceS and I've done a playlist.txt file... i started icecast2 and IceS with no problems, (im using some .ogg with 96.00 kbps) no error comes
