hello all! After having read http://www.xiph.org/ogg/vorbis/listen.html and listened to the examples on that very educational page, I decided to augment the info. This example is more simple, it involves the comparision between two streams of the same radio station, FranceInter (a station of Radio France in Paris). The ogg stream is running at around 30 kbps/11 kHz in stereo. The WMA stream

hello, I like your point here .. it's difficult to make such a comparision, since yacast.fr choosed to stream like that. Why did they choose to stream like that? That's beyond me, since Radio France has a budjet of millions. The point of this comparision was to show why is Radio France doing and paying for something like this? Me, with cheap computers which were had no more value (well,

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

I have to setup an online radio to support 5K users initially and grow into 80k users later. 1.Has anyone any tips on this? 2.Would you recommend serving more than 2000 listeners on a single server? 3.Are there any redundance features on the relay server mode? I was thinking about setting up 2 servers to receive the encoded stream and then setting up the relaying servers so they try the

These popular WMA music and WMV movie download programs among the music fans always come with a disgusting word - 'DRM'.

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,

Is stereo vs. mono, and 22khz vs. 11khz even a fair comparison? 22khz vs. 11khz: 22khz, by definition, gives the 22khz stream much more frequency range and *opportunity* to sound clearer.

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

hi folks, in my (unlucky) first test of ogg vs other encoders, i found a case where wma and mp3pro sound much better than ogg at 64k. can anyone suggest a setting that i haven't tried yet that can rival the wma and mp3pro samples at 64k? it's the "gravel effect" that is troublesome. the part in question is the first 15 seconds of this wave file:

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.
