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 heard that Icecast provides a fake "playlist file" along the lines of http://blahblah:8000/listen.m3u or http://blahblah:8000/playlist.pls because Quicktime can't seem to handle the stream without a playlist file to wrap it up. (There may be other reasons.) However, I can't seem to find any documentation about this, and guessing various URLs on my icecast2.0.1

ok this has to be FAQ #1 but it's not in my FAQ file... how do i get it so going to my server (http://pretension.com:8000/) starts an mp3 player streaming instead of opening up a 51M download window? anybody got a nice site with lots of fancy stuff like playlists and such? i want to look at it to get some ideas... i'd like a log of what was played. this has to be fairly basic

I have the icecast with some ices working perfectly in a Linux server, mp3 files are reproduced with no problems, I'm quite satisfied with it but I have a little doubt! When users click the link at the HTML page, their default player (like xmms, winamp... etc) doesn't load. That's how I've made the link: <a href="http://my.server:8000/playlist.m3u"> How can I

Hi all. I finally got my automating stream working. now, I do have a question for you all regarding fallback mount. I believe I have them setup correctly. but what I would want to do is when I go to http://kjscradio.com:8000/stream.mp3.m3u, I would like it to fallback to the mount point that I have setup for my automation stream. Then, when a source drops the connection from the /stream.mp3.m3u

I've noticed that playlist urls change over time. Thismakes it impossible to use them in a playlist (or to use them for other services like radio-browser.info) for long-term use (http://dir.xiph.org/listen/576154/listen.m3u expired today for example). Why don't you use permanent playlist file names? -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed... URL:

Our listeners click on a link which ends in .m3u. So can this be done...if so how??

is it true it's not possible to start or stop indvidual streams using icecast2+icegenerator(liveice,ezstream) combination? i've tried mp3 directory streaming as well as playlist streaming - it works, but with no possibility to see full mp3 file listing and play control (like choosing a song, starting, stopping play). Icecast can't even diferentiate /dev/dsp input from playlist input.

Perhaps I missed something, what is oggs?

Yes, Oddcast tells me it's broadcasting test.m3u at ~32kb (I set it this slow) and Icecast sees this connection. It also sees when others connect, but all attempts result in Error 404 > When your friends try to connnect,

-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hello, We are needing to use icecast to stream a single mp3 _from_the_beginning_ of the file. Using Icecast and Shout, everything works fine, the problem with that is that when you conenct to /default you start listening at whatever point shout is currently playing at. This is not satisfactory at all, the stream must start at the beginning of the

Hi, I'm using ezstream to stream a list of mp3 files to my icecast2 server which works great. I'm using a m3u playlist file which ezstream reads when it starts and rereads when it loops. The problem is that this playlist is quite long and I would like to be able to inject a song last minute some where in the playlist. I have two options at the moment to do this: - restart ezstream -

I am a new to all of this icecast stuff. I have two machines on the network behind a router. On the icecast server itself I can click on the playlist link and it works fine using a xmms player within Linux. But it will not work on my windows machine using every other player. When I mouse over the playlist link it says: http://my_ipaddress/playlist.ogg.m3u is this correct? Did I configure it
