Folks:
I'm trying to set up a streaming server under Fedora Core 2 using Icecast
2.2.0. Everything compiles; everything runs. There are no indications of a
problem in any of the log files.
When I look at http://192.168.0.128:8000/status.xsl, everything looks ok.
But when I click on "Click to listen", it brings up xmms, but there's no
indication of audio, and xmms shows a bit rate of 1 kbps.
This is a machine that formerly ran icecast 1.3 and liveice under OpenBSD
2.8, so I know the hardware is OK.
What gives?
