Yeah, there's a lot of spare CPU power and memory. The icecast server
takes 0,0% CPU and each streamTranscoder instance only takes 0,0-0,3%.
This is a dedicated Icecast server with 1GHz PIII and 512 MB RAM.

Severe problem with Icecast2 and streamTranscoder
I have a setup where Icecast 2.2.0 is serving a single Vorbis stream.
The source is either a local ices2 or a remote Winamp/Oddcast. I'm then
running a streamTranscoder 1.2.8 instance on the server to transcode the
Vorbis stream to MP3 on the fly and send it back to Icecast, to be
served at a different mountpoint. My config files are very basic with
most settings at their defaults.

It seems you were correct. After updating my kernel (!), the CPU load
figures given by 'top' and 'ps' for streamTranscoder suddenly rose from
0.0-0.3% to about 30-60%. There are occasional peaks above that, which
might very well be causing the problem. And the system load now shows

Adjusting source->server buffer size
Hello,
we're running a radio using Icecast2 and Winamp5/Oddcast as the source.
We have several DJ's who broadcast from their homes, which means that
the quality of the source->server connection varies wildly.
Several of our DJ's have massive problems when broadcasting to Icecast:
the music constantly goes on a pause, sometimes for a second or two,

restarting streamtranscoder w/ out killing listeners
Hi folks
I'm running streamtranscoder on my icecast server. Unfortunately,
after 5-15 minutes of transcoding, it sometimes produces jumpy/skippy
audio or drops the stream altogether. What I'd like to do is restart
streamtranscoder every 5 minutes. However, when I kill
streamtranscoder and bring it back, all listeners on the stream get
killed. How can I prevent this? In other words,

OT: whats your opinion of ODDSOCK streamTranscoder?
OK guys. Thanks so for taking the time to talk to me even though this was
off topic.
And Oddsock, especially thanks for insisting that no one had this problem.
It got me thinking......your transcoder is at the mercy of several external
components..one of them being lame_enc.dll
So..I went and found several versions of the lame_enc.dll, and experimented.
I'm not sure how I should compile lame

What is everyones opinion and expierience with using ODDSOCK
streamTranscoder to downsample mp3 streams?
I tried it on Windows 2000 and then compared it against shoutCAST DSP
plugin. It sucked. It skipped and popped and cut off the first 1/2 second of
each track and dropped. It sucked, while shoutCast DSP was flawless.
What attracted to me to streamTranscoder was you don't have to run an MP3

This is all happening on a box with:
Win 2k SP3
512K RAM
1.2 GHZ Celeron
The PC has noother load...all its doing is downsampling an MP3 stream to
lower bitrates.
I'm using the LAME_ENC.DLL with streamTranscoder. There is no version number
tagged on the lame_enc.dll, but the file is dates July 2002.
When I refer to "skipped and popped and dropped" I am referring to your

because legally I cannot. Distribution of a mp3 encoder requires license
fees to appropriate patent holders....one of the truly great things about
ogg vorbis......no license fees :)

glmmPQL and anova
Dear R-users,
I have conducted an experiment with a 2*2*2 factorial within-subjects design. All factors are binary and the dependent measure is a frequency of successes between 0 and 4. Treating this as a normally distributed variable, I would perform a repeated-measures ANOVA as follows:
> aov(y ~ A*B*C + Error(subj/(A+B+C)))

Vorbis 44.1khz stereo at quality 0.0 for me averages around 60kbps (would
probably be higher if we didn't talk as much), and I think it's excellent.
Not artifact free of course, but hey, it's 64kbps. The vorbis folks have a

repeatedly applying function with matrix-rows as argument
Dear R-users,
Suppose I have a function which takes three arguments. I would like to repeatedly apply the function, using a matrix N*3 in which each row supplies the three argements for the function. Is this possible? Thank you for your help in advance!

elegant way of re-encoding?
hi,
I have a single stream going to my icecast server, encoded in hi-quality
ogg. goal is to serve hi- and low quality ogg and mp3 streams,
re-encoded from the single hi-quality ogg stream.
encoding all from e.g. oddcast simultaniously is not an option.
it would be easier if source-streams would be static and always named
the same .. unfortunately they are not. if so, I could define simple
