Can the bitsPerSample be set any higher than 16? I try to set it to 20 or 24 and get this error... DarkIce: LameLibEncoder.h:122: specified bits per sample not supported [24] teststream# <p>When I start Darkice I get the following error for about 5 seconds and then it stops with "broken pipe". 08:57:09: BufferedSink, new peak: 53112 08:57:09: BufferedSink, remaining: 28808

This is probably sacrilegious to speak of Shoutcast here but that's what I am streaming to right now. Just a couple questions about Darkice... quality is set to 0.5 by default. What's the range for this and what kind of effect does it have on the audio and the load on the system? I've set the "public" variable to yes so it will advertise to Shoutcasts directory but

Hmmm...I raised my sample rate to 44100 from 22050 and now it seems to be more stable??? >>> Matt@cmitech.com 8/28/02 9:04:47 AM >>> Can the bitsPerSample be set any higher than 16?

Actually...I think it's because I set it to mono instead of stereo...anyway, is there a way to set the bitsPerSample higher?

Yes, I downloaded the aumix utility and am using it now. Set line in to %50 then %25 and to record but still the same thing. I'm streaming from the line in on the sound card which is being fed from a portable radio nearby. I get the distortion whether I have the audio fed into 'line in' or not.

Hi, Maybe a bit off topic for this list, bt anyway. I have received several feature requests for DarkIce to support downsampling of the audio input before passing it to lame or ogg vorbis. For example the audio read from the soundcard would be 44.1kHz, and lame would get it at 22.05kHz. I figure two ways of doing this: 1. For lame, one can specify the input and the desired mp3 sampling rate,

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

Hello, Could the experienced people help me? 1:) Is it possible to start liveice in the background like icecast and shout?? 2:) If I insert another sound card to PC(it will have 2 or more sound cards). Is it enough to specify "SOUND_DEVICE" option to /dev/dspX in liveice.cfg and start another liveice session with that configuration file??? 3:) With many efforts I fail to start darkice

Hi, I'm experimenting with IceCast2, using DarkIce to generate the stream. I have found some peculiarities with the vorbis bitrates. In DarkIce, I call vorbis_encode_init() with about the following values: vorbis_encode_init( &vorbisInfo, 2, 44100, 96, 96, 96); which by all reasons should generate a 96 kb/s stream, as all max_bitrate, nominal_bitrate and min_bitrate are set to 96.

I tried darkice 0.9 with icecast 1.3.12 and lame 3.91. I specified a 64k stream and similar options to what works for us with liveice. Streaming worked successfully, and I applaud darkice for being fairly simple to build and configure. But the stream sounded like mud. It was worse than our 16k mono RealAudio stream. I re-examined my config, I rebuilt everything with gcc 2.96, then with

After babysitting liveice for few months I decided to move to Darkice. First I tried installing Darkice on Redhat7.1 but soon gave up after endless broken dependencies. Upgraded to Redhat7.2 and the rpms were accepted right away. I installed: lame-3.91-1.i686.rpm libogg-1.0rc3-1.i386.rpm libvorbis-1.0rc3-1.i386.rpm darkice-0.9-1.i386.rpm Darkice runs but it eats up memory like hell. I tried

Samuel, I had the same problem. I think it's because the port in darkice does not match the port icecast or shoutcast is listening on. I thought it was 8000 but it was actually 8001. Check that.

I'm compiling Darkice on a FreeBSD 4.6.2 box. Everything works up to this point after I type "make"...then I get this error. Any ideas?

Hi all, I'm attempting to stream audio to a live365.com server, more specifically, it is a Nanocaster/2.0 server: HTTP/1.0 200 OK Server: Nanocaster/2.0 Content-Type: audio/mpeg Cache-Control: no-cache Pragma:no-cache Connection: close Content-Length: 44000000 I tried Liveice (XMMS plugin) and it wouldn't connect properly. I tried ices, that too would not work. I even tried DarkIce

If you want to hear what it sounds like, take a listen. I'll have it up for another 20 mins or so. 216.89.166.14:8000 -----Original Message----- From: owner-icecast@xiph.org [mailto:owner-icecast@xiph.org]On Behalf Of harvey smith Sent: Wednesday, March 21, 2001 11:20 PM To: icecast@xiph.org Subject: RE: [icecast] Liveice & Icecast...help Your distro probably came with an sound mixer

darkice is an execellent bit of software, very well written. and the author of the darkice software, akos, is very active on the darkice ML. http://yp.tilos.hu:9000/tilos_high.ogg <= for a darkice stream. b.

The same as wtih liveice, it stops while trying to open /dev/dsp according to strace. <p><p>On Sat, 20 Apr 2002, Maroy Akos wrote: > Raúl Gutiérrez Segalés wrote: > > > > Hi, > > > > I want to stream to an Icecast server (current version) that is up and running and I have tried plenty of streamers and no go.. > > > > Any advices?

I'm a volunteer who runs the mp3 streaming for KGNU-FM in Boulder, Colorado. We stream live at 64K with Linux, icecast 1.3.12+ minor patches, liveice, and lame 3.92. It easily supports 32 internet listeners 24x7 from a donated 400MHz Pentium II. Liveice is the only problem--it does its job of connecting the soundcard rec in to the lame encoder and to icecast, but dies without

Unfortunately I can't reproduce your memory leak reports. For example, here is the line about my production darkice instance from top: PID USER PRI NI SIZE RSS SHARE STAT %CPU %MEM TIME COMMAND 27516 root 20 0 3564 3564 1340 S 95.6 1.3 47:06 darkice <p>this as after approx 50 minutes from start, but the memory load doesn't change for the whole 4 hours it

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
