similar to: mp3 streaming with Icecast2 on win32

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

ices.conf: <Public>1</Public> <!-- The name of you stream, not the name of the song! --> <Name>Poohba's Urban Sounds</Name> <!-- Genre of your stream, be it rock or pop or whatever --> <Genre>RnB</Genre> icecast.xml <directory> <yp-url-timeout>15</yp-url-timeout>

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+

Anyone conceive of any reason why I should have a stream that RealPlayer and iTunes have no problem with, but MP9 refuses to play: just sits there dumbly having loaded the .m3u that points to it, ignoring the play button?

I've updated the win32 icecast2 binary on my site to reflect current CVS (as of now - March 19, 2003).... It's available here for anyone interested : http://www.oddsock.org/tools/icecast2/ <p>oddsock <p>--- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to

Gidday, I have a winamp 2.95 source that cannot upload the stream to my icecast server. Since icecast is compatible with shoutcast surely a winamp source should be able to connect? any help appreciated, Greg My icecast.xml follows: <icecast> <limits> <clients>100</clients> <sources>2</sources>

I'm new to this and I want to know what tools I will need and how to compile Icecast2. I have tried OddSock's port of the server but it appears to be out of date and it crashes my computer. The documentation included with the Alpha-1 release of Icecast2 says it will compile on Win32 but doesn't say how. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project

icecast2 is a broadcast server and will broadcast both ogg vorbis and mp3 streams. This assumes that you have a source client which can produce an ogg vorbis and mp3 stream and send it TO an icecast2 server. With mp3 streams, shoutcast mp3 metadata is supported, however you cannot use the shoutcast DSP as a source stream to an icecast2 server. Current clients that we know about that can

Hi, Just wanted to clarify, can icecast2 not read OR broadcast any mp3, or can it just not broadcast mp3 (but still play from a playlist)? I know the quality would be dropped if it had to reencode them though. And what's up with that POS Winamp3, it doesn't even play gg streams?!? I use xmms, but we have winamp3 on a demo computer, it just sits and keeps prebuffering. I need something

it was fixed a long time ago actually. The current YP is now benefitting from the changes made by me (with help from Karl), and yet despite the requests from both Karl and I recommending that these streams be allowed again, it falls on deaf ears. Ultimately it's up to Xiph to decide, although I was hoping that when the objection "it performs badly so we turned off all non-vorbis

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

I want to send from my local studio with Ogg Vorbis 96 KBit 44 Khz to my remote Icecast2 Server. Now i want Icecast2 or another tool to decode this Mountpoint and reencode it to MP3 96 Kbit 44 KHz. So i want to have 2 Mountpoints /stream.ogg <- original /mp3 <- MP3 Mountpoint, with getting stream from stream.ogg --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project

Is there any way to run Icecast2 Win32 at Windows startup and at least one of the following: minimized, in the system tray, or as an NT/2000 service? I looked through the docs but couldn't find anything.

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

Thanks for all the help. I didn't expect a reply so fast. I downloaded the most recent version of Oddsock's port but it always says that it is unable to start the server. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ icecast project homepage: http://www.icecast.org/ To unsubscribe from this list, send a message to 'icecast-request@xiph.org' containing only the
