Mmmm. On 2nd thought, I believe I have my decimal points in the wrong place. We would need 100's of T1 connnections. > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-icecast@xiph.org [mailto:owner-icecast@xiph.org] > On Behalf Of Ross Levis > Sent: Monday, 10 March 2003 13:46 > To: icecast@xiph.org > Subject: [icecast] Icecast2 memory requirements > > > I mentioned

Hi Dave > In the realm of internet radio id have to say 80% use winamp, > or other players supporting http streaming. Perhaps that is the case for stream listeners. I was quoting (from memory) media players usage figures I read somewhere. Once someone is using WMP, they are generally hooked, and there are 100's if not 1000's of streams available in the Radio Tuner section. >

Hello again No replies regarding memory requirements! I have an idea to provide 1000's of streams without the requirement of 100's of source PC's, and perhaps without even requiring Icecast at all. But I'm not sure if this will work. We will have thousands of 24 hour playlists generated everyday by software I'm developing. If we encode all our audio files at 32kb/s, could

I don't develop in C unfortunately, but I think I've thought of another way of doing it for those using Winamp. A DSP plugin could be developed to read /admin/streamlist to get number of listeners. If listeners is zero then zero the audio data. Place this in front of the OddCast DSP. I'm not exactly sure what is possible with a DSP plugin. Someone else may know if the audio data

I've downloaded and compiled icecast from cvs and the ices-0.2.3 from the download area for MP3 support.. (I'd use ogg, except I have 1000's of mp3. I'll re-rip them, but not today) 8) Is there a particular version of the icecast2 server that works w/ the ices-0.2.3 I'm using? I'm having difficulty getting the two to communicate. >From ices, I get the errors: Error

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 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+

Thats a damn good idea, client connects, player sends request, server responds to dsp encoder says hey i need a stream, dsp says ACK ill send ya a stream. <p><p><p>Dave St John Mediacast1 Administration (720) 641-7586 ----- Original Message ----- From: "Ross Levis" <ross@stationplaylist.com> To: <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Friday, June 20, 2003 6:53 PM

Its my understanding that with any Icecast 2 source, you don't have to re-rip to get them to ogg, just tell your source to send vorbis instead of mp3. At least thats how it works with Oddcast anyway. > I've downloaded and compiled icecast from cvs and the ices-0.2.3 from > the download area for MP3 support..

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.

Hi all, First of all, thank you for supporting us. I've installed Libretime (https://github.com/LibreTime/libretime) which user Icecast2 on Ubuntu Server 16.04. I've also developed a mobile application to listen to stream myhost:8000/mount. My problem is when the number of listeners increases up 500 (On live streaming with butt), the application blockes, and I hardly get info from

Hi there! I don't know, if there have already been such a question, so that it is... I have icecast2 and 7 livestreams on it (by some reasons 6 darkices' mp3 and 1 ices2's ogg). By the given order I need to summarize the time each mount is listened for (for example, /mount1 is being listened by 3 listeners for 3 hours, than by 2 listeners for 1 hour and then by 1 listener for 2

I have a setup where Icecast 2.2.0 is serving a single Vorbis stream. The source is either a local ices2 or a remote Winamp/Oddcast. I'm then running a streamTranscoder 1.2.8 instance on the server to transcode the Vorbis stream to MP3 on the fly and send it back to Icecast, to be served at a different mountpoint. My config files are very basic with most settings at their defaults. The

I have just committed this code to CVS, and here is more information about it for those interested : - the spec that I went off of for the protocol can be found here -> http://www.oddsock.org/icecast2yp/spec.html - since icecast2 now needs to potentially connect out to yp servers for communication, libcurl has been added as a dependency...I used curl 7.9.8... - I also have currently

I only have mp3s and it doesn't make sense to me to change all of them to ogg. My MDA(windows mobile phone) plays mp3s with no problem. It uses them as ringtones. Its more widely used in my circles. Why would I and everyone else want to switch to ogg? What is the benefit? Why the shun on mp3? And I can stream at 64 and 32 which is great for those streams that will get a lot of

I seem to be having problems with people accessing an icecast stream from one of my computers. I am using the current cvs of icecast2 (icecast module), libshout2 (libshout module), and ices2 (ices module) and the RC2 version of the ogg and vorbis libraries. I connect to the internet via DSL and have the DSL modem attached to a Linksys router. The router is configured to forward all port 8000

I was under the impression that Tobias's Direct Show filters would allow Windows Media player to play Ogg Vorbis streams, but after testing it here, apparently it doesn't. Does anyone know if there is anyway of making WMP play vorbis streams? The company I'm involved with who will be creating thousands of internet stations will most likely need WMP to play the streams, since it is
