well, if I manually update the metadata via oddcast and enter "M? ire Brennan - I L??thair D??", then check the icecast2 status page, I see : Current Song: M?ire Brennan - I L?thair D? which I presume is correct. If I then open this stream with winamp, it displays as : M - I L?thair D?. If I look at the file properties, the vorbis winamp plugin tells me there are two comment

Just to let everyone know I'm now broadcasting an IceCast2 Ogg Vorbis stream of my LPFM station courtesy of MediaCast1 (http://www.mediacast1.com) for 10 hours a day Monday to Friday 20:00 - 08:00 GMT. Newage, World, Folk, Easy Listening format. 40kb/s mono. Regards, Ross Levis http://soulfm.stationplaylist.com http://winvorbis.stationplaylist.com http://www.stationplaylist.com --- >8

I should have provided a link to my low bitrate vorbis stream. It's a mostly easy listening world music format: http://soulfm.stationplaylist.com/listen.m3u Regards, Ross.

OK, I've organized this. It's not possible to average 32kb/s stereo with Vorbis using VBR. Quality -2 stereo proeduces roughly 32 to 38kb/s which is too high for many modems. I would have to use ABR, but last I tried that, it utilized too much CPU for my 950Mhz PC, and oddcast doesn't appear to support that option anymore. I've tried AACPlus 32kb/s mono and there is very

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+

I believe that Oddsock is using a Content Type of aacp. Using a .aac extension with this Content Type may present a conflict. This might actually be by design. I will do some further testing with Winamp and report here tomorrow. I will also double-check with the developer of Winamp for complete clarification. FYI, Orban Opticodec-PC allows the use of either Content Type of aac or aacp. aac is

Hi Dave, I installed it one month ago and was very surprised by the sound quality. The stream seemed to sound better in Quintessential than in Winamp.

I'm not sure if this is an icecast issue or oddcast issue or both, but the latest Winamp (v5.22) is not now playing AAC+ streams encoded with Oddcast. Winamp v5.21 and earlier versions work fine. This may be some attempt by Winamp developers to force people to use Shoutcast, or to prevent oddcast from using their enc_aacplus.dll. Right, just took some time to set up the Shoutcast DSP to

I'll purposely attach an HTML encoded message in case some of you are using 7-bit ascii readers. I have a number of songs which use extended ASCII characters in the arist or title such as Màire Brennan - I Láthair Dé. The Current Song in the IceCast status.xsl replaces every extended character plus 1 or 2 characters after it with some strange character. So effectivly shortens the title

Hi, There's a rather serious problem with the Oddcast DSP for Winamp, when you stream in vorbis format over icecast2, it drops ~ 1/2 sec of near the beginning of every song except the first. I tracked this down, it turns out oddcast drops the last vorbis page of every stream. (The DSP doesn't receive the new metadata until after the song has been playing for a second or two, which is
