Access.log
I'm using Simplecast to feed 8 mount points of a 24/7 live stream to Icecast on a win platform. When I have the Statistics Relays graphing activated, I get an entry each minute in Access.log for each of the mount points.
That particular entry is pretty much useless but of course, being able to see the IP address of client drops can be useful. This log grows to mammoth proportions unless I

Overhead of individual mount points
I'm running a private stream which only has a handful of clients. I have found it convenient to create a separate mount point on my encoder (Simplecast) for each client. This allows me to track the current client list using the tools built into Simplecast. It also allows me to do custom streams when required on a per-destination basis.
All mount points are normally running the same

Strange occurrence
I had something happen the other night that I just can't explain. It may not be an Icecast issue at all, but I thought it was interesting enough to post.
I have a private stream with 6 mountpoints, all receiving the same 32 kbps mp3 stream from Simplecast. Both Simplecast & Icecast are running on the same Win2k system. The configuration allows me to track the comings and goings of

Ports required for Icecast
I am providing a machine to a client that will be connecting to an existing Icecast stream that is working just fine. But the client will be connecting from behind a firewall. They need to inform their IT department what ports need to be open for proper operation.
Running ethereal, I see the client machine using ports that vary with each connection in the range of 32782 upwards to 32827 over

Time for log entries
I'm running Icecast 2.3.1 on a Windows 2000 platform with Simplecast feeding a live stream with multiple mount points. At scheduled points in the day, I have a scheduler that launches EZstream that overrides one of the mountpoints for a local 1 hour insert.
Since we went back to standard time last weekend, the log entries in error.log have shown that the EZstream overrides have occurred

Sennheiser is a reputable brand. The model you cited is in their lowest cost series. I have sold a number of these systems over the years. Their first generation (not G2) were problematic in not being very durable. I don't have as much experience with the G2, but the few we have sold have worked fine for several years.

I'm afraid I don't know all the places to look for logs that might tell me something. My script that keeps MPG123 running keeps a log of all reboots and outages. A reconnect that lasts less than one minute is counted as continuous outage.

I didn't describe it fully. If an outage is detected, the system attempts a reconnect immediately. If a reconnect is established but is lost again without a full minute of audio, I don't log it as a reconnect. Once a reconnect is

Buffer in IceCast
Hi Tom,
You might be right, but I don't get why my existing downloads (I guess they
are on different routes) are not affected. If my ADLS provider is doing some
IP adjustments (btw my IP is static) I expect everything to disconnect, not
only my icecast connection. So I'll monitor my USRobotics logs today and
tomorrow so see if there is something strange.

24/7/365 ogg-vorbis client
Don't know if this is the proper place for this question ...
I'm setting up an audio stream from a public radio station's studios to a
remote transmitter. We're using icecast for the server, and it's performed
remarkably well (it's been up for over two years now).
I need a client for the remote location. Requirements are it must run on

using ezstream with stdin
I'm having a hard time not getting mp3 data to ezstream via stdin fast
enough. The vb.net application I'm writing, ezstream and icecast are all
running on the same machine (Widows XP). Some where in the process, a
buffer empties out and that results in a drop out when you are
listening. Usually the dropout happens at a song change.
At first I was chunking up the data according to bit
