Please The easiest solution if you must broadcast with winamp is to use Oddsock's dsp plugin which has icecast support built in.

Ok i got a few questions when a client connects (winamp) what are the incoming headers icecast looks for to signify what type(ogg or mp3) of stream the client is requesting? example (for shoutcast winamp sends icy-metadata:1) shoutcast server then recognizes its a player capable of streaming media so it sends the icy-metaint:8192 to winamp, along with a slew of other icy headers. o here is my

also, keep in mind that support for streaming song titles is also a function of the source client you use.... I've been very successful with use_meta_data=1 and using either my DSP source (oddcast) or the Shoutcast DSP source.... and you can always know for sure if song titles are supported on your server by looking at the HTTP response headers from a request of the stream, (your request

Hi Stephan, I am talking about the meta-data: Artist - Song. It's weird because you are the second person on the list who doesn't get it working in Real... I just tried again with "BEK_dns" and "Radio Alcanzando Naciones" the 2 first MP3 radios I found in the stream directory and everything worked perfectly for Real (but not for WMP). In RealPlayer, I clicked

Hi Everybody, It works with Peercast because Peercast receives the headers from Icecast2 and sends its own headers back to the client (Winamp, WMP, Real...). Remember that Peercast is a client AND a server... I guess Peercast doesn't send back the headers in the same way than Icecast2. Maybe Peercast doesn't use ICY/X-audiocast. Talking about Real (v9.0 and 10), I already got the

I have Oddsock loaded and it will not complete the connecto to the server. I have been trying it in MP3 first before I move to Ogg to be sure I am understanding all I need to know. And it will connect and the eye candy will go let to right and the server will show that there is a connection, but the thing never sends data and a media player like WinAMP will will tell me that there is no ICY

the problem is probably that nsvcap most likely tries to attach using the "shoutcast source" protocol, which is some strange variation of HTTP (but definitely not HTTP).... It's strange-ness and non-HTTP-ness is the reason why icecast doesn't support connecting the Shoutcast DSP to it. So I don't think any magical combination of headers will get live NSV

Hi all: I'm looking at some of the features in SVN Icecast, particularly the ability to reclaim fallbacks. This feature would be very useful for a project I work with, and could see us switching to icecast from Shoutcast compatible technology. One problem arises, however. Some of our broadcasters use the legacy Shoutcast DSP plugin, which can only perform ICY-style connects. My problem

Hi, I've been running Icecast on my server for over five months now and am having lots of problems with it. I must have pulled out half of my hair on this product, mostly due to lack of support. (I mean, have you ever gotten an answer to your question at icecast.org?) I've tried it all: sc_serv, Icecast, shout, ices, streamcast, liveice. I could greatly use any help. I am using the

Greetings Icecast masters! Does anyone know what the supported character encoding(s) are for strings in ICY metadata?

I am trying to pass an ogg stream through icecast and then from icecast through to winamp. I pass the ogg stream to icecast with the Content-Type = "application/x-ogg" however icecast serves the audio out with Content-Type = "application/ogg" unfortunately winamp seems to only accepts "application/x-ogg" am i missing something, or what's a guy to do? thanks!

I've searched the archives on xiph and elsewhere in hopes of finding an answer on whether song titles will work. There seems to be no definitive answer. use_meta_data 1 DOES work for WinAmp 2.75 but nothing else I've tried (which includes the latest WinAmp and Sonique). Also, I can get some header by telnetting into my port (see below) but still the "meta_data" issue remains a

hi guys - its the first time i post to this ml - i had a silly problem i cant resolve i would like to test creating a source with winamp/dsp and then send it to an icecast server - i tried but nothing works fine - winamp cant connect to the server and icecast - from the admin interface - doesnt signal any mounting source what could be? maybe i have to compile icecast with some particular options?

> clear as mud ? Thick in it LOL Ok since you discussed how clients handle mp3, what about ogg vorbis? winamp is just supposed to recognize the .ogg extension? like i said before the mp3 works with that code, but ogg mounts just sit there, doing nothing. <p>Dave St John Mediacast1 Administration ----- Original Message ----- From: "oddsock" <oddsock@oddsock.org> To:
