similar to: WG: icecast source-buffer

hi, I'm running an live 128kbit mp3-upstream (icecast v 2.2.0 on freebsd) from a site where the internet-connection is rather bad and drops every ~20min for few seconds (I'm using streamtranscoder by the way). my question is if there's any parameter to increase the buffer of the upstreaming-source. the config-file of icecast offers <queue-size>, but this seems to affect only the

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

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,

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. The

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

The streamTranscoder is a multi-platform utility which can be used to transcode media streams from one format to

Does the wins libnss module not "work" yet, or am I misconfiguring it ? Everything else in the whole samba/winbind realm works, I can log in as a domain user using pam_winbind, smbclient can resolve netbios names from WINS, etc etc. but 'ping NETBIOS_NAME' doesn't resolve. Here's some background data: Samba 2.2.8-0.1 on debian from master.samba.org apt repos. wbinfo -N

The icecast server takes 0,0% CPU and each streamTranscoder instance only takes 0,0-0,3%.

Hi all, I'm trying to make some simple MOH (Music On Hold) working. So far I've failed miserably - so I turn here for help. Basically I've been using the wiki and all the sample confs I could from there and via google. The queue system seems to work fine with my limited setup. Just 2 IAX2 clients where I keep Client B busy (by making it listen to mp3 via ext. 777) but logged into

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

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

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

Hello I've been playing around with Icecast, Oddcast DSP v2 and streamTranscoder, trying to get multiple streams with different bitrates in ogg format running. The source I am streaming is from Winamp 2.80 Oddcast DSP v2 serving to a linux compilation (got it from CVS just yesterday) of Icecast 2. I also compiled streamTranscoder 1.1 and after much trial got a not really stable second

i'm running a community-radio/ new-media project out of Barrie, Ontario/Canada . http://theDV8network.com ; free radio and fertile resistances, fresh from the Canadian underground . our listeners are not necessarily very technical . . but i've read Cathedral and the Bazaar , and of course i want to support ogg ( as an alternative media ). but i don't want to force my listeners into

Surely there's a way of doing it which only requires the source password, heck there must be since streamTranscoder is sending in metadata updates nicely without needing the admin pw. Geoff.
