Hi, Now that I've been able to look at streamtranscoder 3.0, I see there's absolutely no documentation whatsoever. I've not compiled it, but I note that previously when you ran it first time, it would create a sample config file for you to edit. Maybe it still does this. Oddsock's flash demo may shed more light on this, but I can't use it so don't know. Geoff. --

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

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

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

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

Hi! We want to over our stream in better quality (128 or 256) - but we still have listeners using ISDN ... what's the best way to create a 56'er stream from the 128er send to the server? The downsampling has to run on the debian streaming server. Greetings from Germany Philipp

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! Currently I'm using icecast1 and darkice to send a live-stream ... now I updateted icecast2 ... but is there a way to create 2 different MP3 streams (with 2 different qualities) using a streaming client? ices2 would be great but it only supports ogg :-( As real radiostation we have to use MP3 because most auf the windows playeres still don't support ogg ... :-(( My boss wants an

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

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.
