Thanks Josephus for your advice. That is the reason why I have joined this group...to learn. I have never done anything with streaming, but we must start somewhere. I do work with the web as a programmer. As I mentioned before, I do have winamp 5 and I have the server running I still do not know how to tie up winamp on my client machine to the server machine. Does some one have aworking copy

You need the Oddcast plugin for WinAmp 2/5. http://www.oddsock.org/tools/oddcastv2_wa2/ >From: "Nestor" <nestorflorez@earthlink.net> >Reply-To: icecast@xiph.org >To: <icecast@xiph.org> >Subject: Re: [icecast] I am new - how to set client Date: Sat, 20 Dec 2003 >13:59:43 -0800 > >Thanks Josephus for your advice. > >That is the reason why I have

I have just downloaded from anoncvs@xiph.org the ogg, vorbis, icecast, and ices modules. I compiled and installed all four modules without any errors. I seem to have icecast working correctly (no errors in the logs), but I cannot get ices started. I receive the following errors in the log file: [2001-11-09 07:04:54] EROR playlist-builtin/playlist_open_module No playlist type given, cannot

Hi all, I'm new to the streaming audio thing, but have been a linux user for 7 or 8 years. Here's some background: I work in a really EMI-nasty environment that prevents receiving radio broadcasts. In order to listen to sporting events, local news, etc. I planned to set up icecast to stream live audio snatched from a radio at home, and listen to it at work. I installed icecast,

Hello, I'd like to be able to run multiple instances of Ices (2.0), each with their own playlist and streaming to different mountpoints. Although I'm relatively new to Ices and Icecast, so far I have had little trouble getting it running with two or more instances of Ices feeding off fixed playlists (files). I'd like to be able to set each instance of Ices to run with script based

hi everyone, we're running a webradio-station focussed on electronic music (http://www.play.fm), using icecast 2.2.0 (on SuSe Linux 9). we're broadcasting 4 hours of live-program each day (using streamtranscoder). what I would like to do is to stream a generated playlist of mp3-files during the rest of t. day (using something like ezstream, which I have currently installed & played

Hello, I had a big trouble with ices (ices-2kh60). It is reading a playlist file containing "-" to tell "read stdin". But I think that when stdin is having problem, then ices become mad. It tries hundreds of time per second to play the playlist file content, generating huge amount of traces, which are rotated, but causing a denial of service on the server which become

Jappe: I've just added this functionality to ezstream. You can now send ezstream a SIGHUP and it will re-read the currently processing playlist file (it will currently do nothing if you are reading from stdin). In this case ezstream will keep track of the last track played and will reposition to that track (if it exists in the new playlist, otherwise it will just restart at the

I have implemented playlist randomization into ezstream v0.1.2 for Linux. I am currently using a PII 266mhz for a server, so I wanted something that wouldn't have to reencode the audio as it is streamed and be able to play a playlist randomly. It uses STL Vectors to store each playlist and then randomly deletes the song from the list after it is played (this is to make sure the same

I have a few related questions. I'm using the following Debian packages: Ices2 (2.0.1-4) Icecast2 (2.3.1-2) Here's the input section of my ices-playlist.xml: <input> <module>playlist</module> <param name="type">basic</param> <param name="file">/etc/icecast2/playlist.txt</param> <param

I have a bad habit of re-creating the wheel, and have the feeling Im missing some critical info, so... before I delve any deeper I wanted to throw this out there for some clarity: Im all kinds of confused about building a playlist handler. Lets say I wanted on demand streaming... (running icecast-1.3.12, ices-0.2.3 on RH7.2) I COULD conceivably write a cgi that says: heres a list of tunes check

Perhaps I missed something, what is oggs?
