similar to: big buffer on server-side

Hi Karl, Thanks for the reply. As I read the documentation, the queue-size is related to the listener, not the source. If the listener sets up a small buffer, they can easily run out of it. The source-timeout parameter is an important one for me, I'll raise that. Thanks! Isn't there a parameter that controls the buffer size used in the server...? Or any other way to make this goal?

Hi, I'm running Aaron's tunequeue scripts for my radio site. (tunequeue.sf.net) I have ices2 to read Ogg Vorbis files and feed the icecast2 server with those files. Could someone please tell me how can I disable ID3 updating? I want all clients to only show the name of the radio, but don't get any of the ID tag information stored in the Ogg files. Where can I set that? Sorry for

Hi Christian, Aaron Wolfe has already sent me a script he used for his online radio. I only need to customize it -- and maybe create a Debian package from it. It knows much more than I need (requests, cancels, more stations, etc.), I'll have to cut out some parts. To answer your questions I use Debian Linux, I'll use ices2 as source, not a media player. Thanks, Jacint Christian

Hi all, I'd like to launch a radio station that would show the current, previous and upcoming tracks on a dynamic website. Is there any software around that would do just this task, or do I have to create my own scripts? The source (ices) is on the same computer where the icecast server is. Thanks in advance! Yours, Jacint

Hi All For a project we'd want to authenticate Listening Clients over their Network MAC address. Anyone knows whether that's possible or not? We think about a (flat) file, containing the allowed MAC addresses, the icecast server checking whether the clients match (=authenticate) or not (=deny). Thanks, Alex

Aaron, I am looking forward to have a go at your work! So ..... If your ready I will have a go at it ;-) Sounds great !!!

Hi, We're planning to launch a video stream. We do not have anything yet (no camera, no computer, no software, only a Linux server that will do the broadcasting with icecast installed). Has anyone ever done such a thing? What hardware do you suggest? What software can be used (both for Linux and Windows on source side). Can Icecast be used for this video streaming purpose (on server side)?

what about "ethernet over tcp"? don't know if windows support this, but for linux/unix users it should be possible to authenticate via mac address in routed network using icecast url authentication + eth over ip software bridge. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Balint Jacint" <bjacint@kvark.hu> To: "Alexander Dal Farra"

Hi All, I have two questions. I have an icecast2 server installed, and I need to set up a Linux-based computer that sends a church's programs to the icecast server. (Both worship and teaching.) What application do you suggest? It would be really pleasing if I wouldn't need X11 to use the software, and it would display (with charactergraphics) the current signal level. The signal

Hi, I just wanna share with you my experience with theora ffmpeg2theora, icecast2 and ubuntu edgy. I wanted to broadcast live video on an Ubuntu machine with ffmpeg2theora, oggfwd and icecast2. I read the thread http://lists.xiph.org/pipermail/icecast/2005-February/008608.html about the stream dying after a couple seconds with libshout 2.0. Now the same happens if you use libshout3 v2.2 with

Hi, I searched the Internet to find an answers, but I didn't find anything useful, so I'm turning to you, maybe someone has the answer. I want to make a realtime broadcast from a Linux box. The source is the soundcard's line-in, and it sends the stream to an Icecast server. I would like to have realtime compressor/limiter functionalities on this Linux box, so the outgoing signal

Hi, I know two solutions for that. 1. You set up icecast to broadcast on the 80 port (there's a <port> tag in the xml). If you run a webserver on the same machine, then you can't do this. 2. If you run a webserver on the 80 port, you can set up the webserver to relay the stream through it. If you use apache, you need something like this in your httpd.conf: <VirtualHost

Hi there, is it possible to use such encryption like SSL/TLS for authenticating users on a mountpoint? I can't find somethin like that in the docmentation and it would be nice to have such a mechanism like that, because all passwords will be transmitted in PLAIN text. This is not very secure, because anyone can see the usernames and passwords in his sniffer program. Would be pleased if

Hi, I got a Matrox RT.X100 Pro capture card to make a live video streaming with it. The concert to be streamed will be on Saturday... I have a Linux-based server running Icecast 2.3, so I need to make this computer with the Matrox card to work with the Icecast server. I'd prefer Ogg Theora. Unfortunately there's no Linux support for this card, so the only choice I have is Windows XP.

Hi Guys, My first post here so hello to all :-)) Anyway, my question: Does anybody know if there is a tool out there that can process the icecast log files and return a graph of listener numbers over a set period? I'd like to be able to know when our most busiest time was. Thanks very much in advance, Andy

Jacint, Could you please keep me updated on your progress, I have tried to get the song info on our web page using FTP. But don't like this way! So I am anxious to see and learn!

Unfortunately, this won't really help with some corporate HTTP proxies, because the proxy never finishes loading the stream (it's a stream) and therefore never sends anything on to the client. Interestingly, I've seen windows media streams work in such places. Does anybody know that happens? Are windows media streams really a bunch of small files that the clients reassemble?

hm, to have a look at Pure Data and external called oggcast~ http://www.akustische-kunst.org/puredata/ is recomended, you can set quality/bitrate/samplerate ... while streaming then, and do whateweryou want to your sound before sending it to icecast, including building your compressor-limiter. cheers Ales Zemene -- http://ales.mur.at irc.kunstlabor.at #kunstlabor citation of

I knew it wasn't ID3, I just didn't know the name for it. This way you knew what I meant. :) Thanks for the reply. Then I'll modify my Ogg files. I have jlGui Java player embedded into my web page, and it keeps reconnecting every time a song has ended. Unfortunately by reconnecting it looses the first 1-2 seconds of the songs. According to what you've said there's no way
