[Icecast-dev] Javascript source client

[Stephen Mahood]

Thomas,

Thank you for your interest in this, you description is as accurate as I
can see.

here is the great news
http://www.webrtc.org/faq#TOC-What-is-the-VP8-video-codec-

and

http://www.webrtc.org/faq#TOC-What-is-the-Opus-audio-codec-

both Opus and VP8 are codecs are already supported in webrtc :)

It seems to me the bigger challenge is getting a javascript source
client, the reason being is webrtc is written in javascript.

I think there are amazing things that can be achieved with the webrtc
connection to icecast. It seems could be similar to google hangout
without the google dependency
