(Already noting the posts that say this is not available) Are you willing to deal with "non authoritative" answers in your query? If so, you can write some scripts that talk CGI to a commercial music vendor. I use a (no longer available) MP3 tagger called "MP3 Internet Renamer". It would go out and request a web page from the "All Music Guide" (

I'd search freshmeat/sourceforge/cpan before doing anything... there might already be a library or package for general-purpose web-grepping.. If not you can probably use a "HTML to ascii" converter (or some Perl/awk tag strip construct) which will reduce fluff in the pages. I find it easier to throw away data I know I _don't_ want first (though, if I knew regular expressions

This doesn't exist, some commercial entities have discussed setting this up but right now it's not there. <p>----- Original Message ----- From: "Leo Currie" <leo.currie@strath.ac.uk> To: <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Wednesday, November 20, 2002 4:03 AM Subject: [icecast] [OT] Online music database <p>> Sorry this isn't really icecast related, but >

Winamp 3 is broken, and will not correctly play Ogg streams. Winamp 2.91 lite is

Hi - Just noticed this feature, not sure if it affects anyone else, but I thought I'd post it here 'for the record'. Icecast 2.2.0. With multiple <listen-socket> entries, the .m3u playlists generated by Icecast will always quote the first entry in the list, even if they are requested on a different port. For example, a server with this config: <listen-socket>

Hi - This is my first post, so please excuse me if I screw up in any way :) I have been trying to get icecast to relay an Ogg Vorbis stream. I have the 1.3.7 win32 version and in the icecast.conf file i have alias radiofg.ogg http://ra.voila.fr:8000/radiofg.ogg I think that this should allow me to point a client at http://fusion1.studio.strath.ac.uk:8000/radiofg and the server will connect to

Hi All, I'm planning to get a stream running in the next month or two, and will be using ices and icecast. Legality: Further to the last couple of posts regarding legality issue. I notice that the PRC do their licence cost on a percentage of your revenue, seeing as I plan to host no adverts or indeed any commercial aspect I hope to get a licence without actually paying anything. (I've

I don't have an Android phone, but if I did, I would look for a VLC port, or a try a Java source client like JRoar. It would be interesting to find out if either of these work! - Leo On 6 December 2010 12:55, <un at dom.de> wrote: > Thomas B.

Try "XIIALive Lite", it works perfectly for my Icecast/Vorbis stream. The 'lite' version is free and works fine (ad supported). *xiialive*.com // On 11/16/2011 06:33 AM, michel memeteau wrote: > Hi all , > > Just wondering if any Android icecast source is on the Way. > > the point is that I build a mobile Icecast source with 3G.

I thought the YP code was going to be fixed to use less resources so it could be used with other stream formats. It seems to be taking a long time. As it is now, Icecast2 is not a good solution for those wanting to be on a popular directory. I am forced to recommend using Shoutcast to my clients so they can get onto a popular directory. I would prefer to recommend Icecast2. Ross Levis.

I can understand wanting to boost the adoption of Xiph codecs, but I think restricting the directory to vorbis streams only will not help this endeavour. I can imagine it will just piss a lot of people, including myself, and give Xiph a bad name. I get very few listeners of my AAC+ stream now since this occured. The restriction is not an insentive to switch to Ogg Vorbis at all. The incentive

Hi folks Got Icecast2 running on Redhat8 with IceS2 as a source, streaming some OGG files. All works nicely (not _especially_ reliable :) but it seems to lock up the Freedomaudio java player between tracks. Everytime a new file begins, the player stops and says 'Loading'. I'm wondering if it's somehthing to do with metadata - is there a way of disabling metadata from IceS2? (i.e.

Hi. I'm confused about one of the statements on http://www.vorbis.com/faq.psp#unique I have a server using Ices2 as the source. I provide it with Ogg's encoded at quality 5, and I get it to provide lower bitrate streams like so: ices.xml --snip-- <instance> --snip-- <encode> <samplerate>44100</samplerate>

Hello, I'm a new user of icecast which is a really cool software. I use it with the the http proxy module of apache httpd to do port forwarding with 2 sub domains. On my router i forward all tcp traffic of the port 80 to my server. 2 Sub domains are redirected to my server : radio.mydomain.com (icecast) music.mydomain.com (ampache) my apache server host the ampache application with a

Hi Rob The stream format has nothing to do with your audio files. I probably have 70% MP3's and 30% Ogg Vorbis files, and 1 or 2 WAV files for jingles on my hard drive. I only encode new CD's to Ogg Vorbis. But my station is streaming in AAC+ format, and I have also streamed in Ogg Vorbis format simultaneously. There is no way I would bother streaming in MP3 format. It's 15+
