OK we won't do that, so can we use IceCast to stream a pre-built playlist file containing individual .ogg files all encoded at the required bitrate? I'm hoping so, so we don't have

No idea, but that's going to depend on the bitrate and quality of the vorbis stream. The higher the quality, the more CPU it's going to consume, therefore the fewer instances will be able to run.

Most connections are around 48k I believe. Ross. --- >8 ---- List archives:

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

Hi I've just become involved in a company that is starting a new large project which involves streaming thousands of Internet radio stations, possibly up to 8000. They were heading towards the Windows Media format but I mentioned Ogg Vorbis streaming and they are interested. This will be a major boost to Ogg Vorbis in the market place if they decide to do it. I'm not exactly sure

Just my opinion but I've found streaming with quality -1 22khz Mono produces the best sound quality for 32kb/s. 11khz stereo sounds like crap in comparison. I'm just waiting (impatiently) for OddCastDSP(v1) to support 22050 mono via the SQRSoft crossfader. If

Sorry for the long rave.

Hi all, I built the latest Win32 version of Icecast last night (need I say why its so cool?). I am using it with OddcastDSP and it connects and streams to Icecast just fine. However, when I try and connect to the server I get an HTTP/1.0 404 error. The log shows this: 127.0.0.1 - - [21/Feb/2003:19:51:08 Eastern Standard Time] "GET / HTTP/1.0" 404 109 "(null)" "-"

We want crossfading so we need to use the SQRSoft crossfading Winamp output plugin. Ross.

I've not had a reply on the OddSock forum so I'll try here. I am attempting to use the OddCastDSP Winamp2 plugin via the (free) SQRSoft Advanced Crossfading output plugin (http://www.sqrsoft.com.ar/en/plugins.html). This is necessary to provide intelligent crossfading which sounds very professional. I've not heard of any other crossfading algorithm that works so well. It uses the

Hi list, I was just wondering if there was a way to stream using ogg format from WinAmp. I could always take the output from WinAmp and feed it in to the sound card on my Linux box and use the live streaming option of ices, but that sounds a bit messy. Also what is a recommended quality to stream ogg at so that modem listeners can pick it up with out many skips. I found that 32k was fine in

Just some more questions. As a guess, how many IceCast streams could be supported on one Linux PC (say 1.5Ghz PC). And a guess at how many OddCastDSP clients (with Winamp2) could be supported on a similar Windows PC. Are there any other solutions for streaming Ogg Vorbis without IceCast? Thanks, Ross Levis.

Sounds like WinAmp isn't storing a large enough buffer, or Icecast isn't putting a long enough buffer between what it recieves from Oddcast & what it transmits to clients. I've never had such a problem, though. Could be your connection? >===== Original Message From John Farnsworth <si@darkness.nu> ===== >Hrm, but it works fine (and the mountpoint is /dnumusic.ogg).

This may be slightly off-topic but I'm trying to find out information about the Darwin Streaming Server and what it may be compatible with, as far as stream encoder formats. I saw this mentioned in an update. MP3 Streaming: You can serve standard MP3 files using Icecast-compatible protocols over http. Build a playlist of MP3 files and serve them to MP3 clients such as iTunes, SoundJam

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 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. >
