Subject: [icecast] Transcoding ogg with curl, oggdec, ices2: problem after fallback due to oggdec
In-Reply-To: <E1AmVcu-0007ei-00@Yglar>
Message-ID: <E1AnMD2-0007cH-00@Yglar>



I have more info about that problem...
curl | oggdec | ices will never work to my opinion with fallback setup on source
because when transfering listeners to fallback, no ogg headers are sent, so 
whatever we do, oggdec will not be happy with the data received...
I tried
curl | while true; do oggdec; done | ices
to avoid breaking ices stdin in case of oggdec failure.
on source fallback transfer, oggdec fails (normal), restarts, fails, restarts, fails, ...
ices is having stdin timeout, ...

really? That would be a bug unless it rewrites the stream id instead.

It is possible to change the password without restarting the server.
You will need to tell icecast to reread the config file when you've changed 
it, you can send it a SIGHUP to do that.

I haven't yet looked at the code, but for stdin to work correctly on windows, 
you usually need to call:
_setmode(_fileno(stdin), _O_BINARY);

That's for MSVC. There are different variations on this for other platforms 
and other win32 compilers - see oggenc/platform.c:setbinmode() if you need to 
know.

you are, of course, correct Mike, and now stdin reading is working on win32 
and I've uploaded version 0.1.1..

Yes, that's really the behaviour
oggdec in latest CVS doesn't support source fallback.
and ogg123 is better, but I suspect some kind of similar problem, because yesterday, I started
ogg123 http://.... | ices
ogg123 was handling fallback but this morning, it was out of control : consuming all the CPU, giving
no data to ices. I'm not sure about the real problem with ogg123, I'm searching.

But for oggdec, it's easy to test.

curl http://yourstreamurl | oggdec
then move listeners to another mountpoint (even with same OGG characteristics:  bitrate, samplerate, channels)

Subject: [icecast] how much horsepower will i need for streaming?
Message-ID: <401E3B7C.1010205@folkwang-hochschule.de>



hi!

i'm putting together a streaming relay network for the linux audio 
developer's conference #2 (http://www.zkm.de/lad), and i was 
wondering how much cpu power will be required on the master server.

we need to record 2 48k stereo signals simultaneously and encode 
them into three streams each:

2x 54kbit/s 22k05 mono
2x 112kbit/s 48k stereo
2x 192kbit/s 48k stereo

it would be very nice if the same box could handle the streaming to 
between 5 and 8 relay servers, so that we have only one single point 
of failure.

how much cpu and memory do you think we'll need to be on the *very 
safe* side ?

thanks in advance,

j?rn

Icecast alone is very easy on the hardware, the source client is who's 
doing the hard encoding work. You'd want to check if your source client 
is capable of encoding those three streams easily in realtime (let it 
have overhead, so your stream doesn't get in trouble when a cronjob 
starts daily maintenance.)

On the server side, bandwidth is the limiting factor.

Also, relays get their streams from the master server, it's not the 
master server that connects to the relays to send it to them.

Just make some live tests on the master server, and while it runs, 
trigger any possible cronjobs and do other nasty things and see if the 
streams stay up. When you do the real thing, disable those cronjobs, 
don't do nasty stuff and you should be on the safe side. :)

i should have mentioned that i will be using ices2. i can encode 
three streams on a dual p3/600 at about 85% load, but i'd like to 
have some data from other people as well...

> On the server side, bandwidth is the limiting factor.

the master will only be serving a limited number of relays. its 
maximum network output will be 5-10 mbit/s.

true, but the load on the master is the same, regardless of the 
connection procedure.

it's a dedicated machine, there will be no cron running.

yes is does care, but it's possible to relax that, so that un-modified
streams could pass through. For streams like Ogg Vorbis some information
has to be cached (the headers) so that they can be sent to the listener
first, so they have to be handled specifically.

If I am encoding, say, a Windows Media or Real stream to the

stream, is there a way to pick up the audio stream from an encoder 
card without contention over the device? Currently I'm seeing 
WinAmps' linein fighting with the other encoders. Is there a plugin 
that will work around that, or some other way of identifying the 
source?

Most of icecast doesn't care. However, some bits do, so it's neccesary to have 
some handling code in it for each datatype.

It would be _very_ easy to add support to icecast for streams of type 
"application/octet-stream" - i.e. a stream that icecast should just feed 
straight through without having any special handling for at all, then you 
could use that for your purposes.

Would this e.g. allow for Nullsoft Video, mpeg4-video or similar to 
be broadcasted? Or did maybe someone have a closer look on how to 
implement streaming for such data types?

Hi:

Obviously oggdec doesn't support multiple logical streams.  This is your
sticking point.

Doesn't ices2 have an option to accept ogg streams via stdin?  This would
probably work better.

Does your playback match the sound that you are encoding?  Perhaps share

Hi:

Regarding your mirroring (i.e. relaying) question, there's two ways you
could do this.  The first would involve having a master icecast2 server,
which relays would pull from.  This would mean that if the master goes
down, the lot would go, however.  Alternatively, you could use ices2 to
send to each of the servers individually and avoid this problem.  This is
perhaps a bit clunky, but if there is a real chance that any of your
servers could go down, then this would avoid this problem.  Note that you
didn't say which OS you use so I don't know if you are able to use ices2
which is a unix program.

Geoff.

Hi:

Having 3 different directories of files encoded at the 3 different rates
would definitely use less CPU, as ices wouldn't have to re-encode.  But
there would also be no guarantee that the 3 streams would stay in sync with
each other, though they shouldn't drift much if they are the same content.

it would be true to say that yes, you could stream NSV or other video types 
with this manner (assuming that they don't need special stream processing, 
NSV does not, something like Ogg-Theora probably would)...the main problem 
is the issue of a source client.  Currently, there is only one (that I know 
of) source client that will encode and send NSV, and that is the one that 
will only connect to shoutcast and uses shoutcast's proprietary method and 
customization of HTTP for it's connection protocol.  Icecast currently does 
not (and probably will not) support this type of connection.  Similarly, 
the Windows Media Encoder (which can also be used to generate a video 
stream) also uses a connection protocol that is not supported by Icecast 
(they use a entirely different method which involves "pulling" the source 
stream from the client rather than the client "pushing" the source stream 
to the server.

o yes, we can support streaming of video with Icecast, and probably the 
first step is to build a source client which can generate a video stream 
using a codec that doesn't have any special handling properties and can be 
modified to support the icecast connection protocol.

For the record: shoutcast's protocol is not a 'customization of HTTP'. It 
superficially looks somewhat similar, but actually isn't. At all - which is 
why icecast doesn't support it - it's a lot of pain for very little gain.

As of WindowsMedia9, you can also have the Source Client "pushing" 
the stream to the server, using the HTTP-POST-Method (at least it 
looks like the source client is sending a POST-Request.. as I don't 
have a WM-Server, I couldn't check out a true client<->server-
connection). Since it's Microsoft, I presume there is still some 
propietary handling in the background. Would someone care to look 
deeper into this? Are we even allowed to support WM9, according to 
MS' licenese terms?

Oh, BTW: First post here (I guess.. been reading for almost a year 
now, thanks for all the tips and a huge thank you for icecast2) :-)

video streaming was one of the things i had in mind, together with 
speex support (i had asked about that in another posting, but it 
went unnoticed...)

will icecast eventually be able to stream all of ogg 
{vorbis|theora|speex} ?

<p>excuse the off-topic request, but does anyone around here have 
experience with video streaming under linux, preferably with 
open-source tools? if you do, would you share it with me?
(since this is not really icecast-related, please consider to 
contact me in private mail, i will summarize your messages to the 
list to keep the noise down.)

<p>thanks to your helpful replies so far!

all the best,

j?rn

If you want to stream video through Icecast, you should consider the FLV
format. FLV is the new video format for Flash 2004. It means the final
client will be just the regular flash plug-in (installed on almost every
computer connected to the internet). Unfortunately, I am not sure there is a
live FLV encoder yet that could act as a source.

Cheers,

MAX

Message-ID: <20040203111648.12E2F10F04@ovide.student.utwente.nl>



Hi guys,

I've got the following set up:

- Linux SuSE 8.2
- Running: Icecast2
- Source Client: Ices0.3
- Stream Client: Winamp 5.0 in Windows XP

The following is happening:

- I've got Ices0.3 streaming MP3's with correct ID3-tags to the
Icecast-server
- Suppose the stream name is "Ovide's Radio"
- In the status.xsl page of Icecast2, I only see info about: mountpount,
stream type, no. listeners, current song playing and a link to the actual
stream.
- So Stream Name, Stream Genre, Stream Descritption and the Stream URL with
info about the stream is just not there!

So you could think: obviously Ices0.3 isn't sending this information... BUT!
Winamp5.0 displays the Stream Name ("Ovide's Radio") correctly in it's
screen. Apparently, it's sent by Ices0.3 and correctly forwarded by
Icecast2. So why isn't it on the status-page?

Furthermore: sometimes (but that could also be winamp) the title of a song
isn't updated in Winamp, although it IS updated in the admin/status-pages of
icecast2 itself...

My question to you guys: what seems to be the problem here? I already went
to #icecast on Freenode and tried there, but we only could discover that the
headers sent from Ices0.3 were correct... So our guess now is that it's
Icecast2...

<p>Greetz,

Ivo

when you compiled icecast, did you disable YP ?  the fields that you 
mention are really only used for YP listing, and so if you have explicitly 
disabled YP support, then they will not be kept track of in the stats tree...

Subject: [icecast] ices2 + stdin + metadata
Message-ID: <012701c3ea67$30ff13a0$0400a8c0@neuromancer>



Hi,

does anybody know some info about posting metadata to ices2 via stdin?
My system is based on a PHP-script wich sends PCM-data from the player
(mpg123 or ogg123) over a pipe to ices2. As i understand the documentation,
metadata is sent as normal clear text within the PCM-data when using stdin.

I tried the following format:
\n
artist=foo\n
title=bar\n
(\n is, of course, a normal unix-linebreak)
In this case, the metadata isn't updated.

When i write exactly this to a file wich is called as metadata by ices2, it
works. However, i don't like to use the file but would like to use stdin. ;)

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Thomas 'Neo' Weber

no it's isn't, metadata is separate from the PCM.

if you're pushing PCM via stdin then use the metadata file. Don't mix
them in the same stream.

Subject: [icecast] Windows source client problems
Message-ID: <401FCE91.5060704@wcfia.harvard.edu>



I'm having trouble with sourcing from a live mic from a Windows machine. 
I've used oddsock and ezstream, and both stream MP3 files to my icecast2 
server with no problem.

I've checked and re-checked that my Windows recording device is the 
microphone input (Volume control 
settings/Properties/Recording/Microphone is selected as the recording 
device). Windows Sound Recorder records the mic input just fine.

Any ideas as to why this isn't working?

Thanks in advance,

Ethan

Ok, so i have to know the PID of ices to send the update-signal. I've added
this to my ices.xml:
<pidfile>/home/www/bin/ices.pid</pidfile> (directly under the node <ices>)
I thought i've seen this somewhere in the manual.
However, when i start ices, no pid-file is created :-/ Is this the right
way?

If you have added it to where the other general settings are, like logpath etc
then yes. It may of failed to open the pid file though, I'll add a message for
that case.

Nope, I just compiled it with the standard ./configure;make;make install.
And - correct me if I'm wrong - YP is enabled by default... What else could
be the problem?

I don't know the dev-status right now, but I'd say this is not a bug it's a feature. ;) explanation follows later on.

I bet everything is ok. 

To verify everything is ok with your metadata go to
http://$youricecastserverip:$yourport/admin/stats.xsl
or if you like plain XML
http://$youricecastserverip:$yourport/admin/stats.xml

As you will probably see your metadata is 100% complete.

So why doesn???t status.xsl show it? Well IIRC at the time this xslt was written this was the only available metadata through the status.xml file.

As a coincidence on the icecast-dev mailing list there is a discussion underway about all xslt's provided by the server. If you want to have this metadata instantly on your server read my last post to the list through the xiph.org mailing list archive. There you'll find some basic advice how to edit your status.xsl .

If you have any problems with that report them to this list or if they are very specific to your server PM me.

regards 

Thomas

Stream name, genre, description and url are NOT present here also! I've got
the feeling that we're isolating the problem here, so that's fine... but: if
the stream name doesn't show up in the stats/status, why DOES it show up in
the streaming client?

I'd certainly like it to, and plan to implement this if no one beats me to it.

BTW, theora streams are I think a use case for tcp streaming of speex over ogg. The bandwidth 
savings for conference presentations and the like will be worthwhile, and theora itself really 
wants a reliable transport at low datarates.

I also think being able to archive talks by just saving the http stream is as valuable with speex 
as with vorbis.

I would think so, but I might have missed something.

<p>Here is my IceS2-config - with this one, the problem manifests after 2 
minutes of playing, and the client is disconnected after 3 minutes.

I have tried tweaking bitrate, quality, samplerates etc. While it does 
have _some_ effect on how long the client stays connected, it is not much.

Is it possible to rotate daily icecast source dump files ?
If I change the configuration file, then send a signal (which?) to icecast to

This is just a wild guess, but is it possible that
/usr/lib/libmp3lame.so is a broken symbolic link? What does the command
'file /usr/lib/libmp3lame.so' tell you?

hmmm.  Wonder if specifying both nominal and quality is causing an issue

Hi:

So what are you using to try and stream your mic to the server?  If it's
oddcast, are you using advanced controls or, alternatively, a line
recording plugin?

Geoff.

I've tried both oddcast and ezstream. I've tried Advanced Controls with 
a Mic Boost for extra gain, and I've also tried hooking up my walkman to 
the line in, neither of which seem to work. Again, streaming an MP3 
works just fine.

Message-ID: <40210B78.3030109@wcfia.harvard.edu>



Is there any way to run Icecast2 Win32 at Windows startup and at least 
one of the following: minimized, in the system tray, or as an NT/2000 
service? I looked through the docs but couldn't find anything.

Thanks,

Ethan

Short recap:

* Ices0.3 as source client for IceCast2
* Stream name, genre, description and URL are NOT present in
/admin/stats.xml!
* Compiling/configuring with YP-support didn't help...
* Stream name IS visible in streaming client -> Ices sends it correctly,
IceCast forwards it correctly.

I would really like to know if there's an answer to this...

Sadly I have no time to help trace this, so consider this a
motivational message. Using the same setup, my stream name, genre and
description all appear in /admin/stats.xsl. And they all get forwarded
to the YP server (dir.xiph.org) correctly as well. So it is
possible, but since I did nothing special to get it working I can't
offer any advice. Good luck.

there is a checkbox on the main dialog that will automatically start the 
server when the main executable is started (i.e. you don't have to click 
the "Start Server" button)..so if you check that and put a shortcut in your 
startup folder it will start.  The only problem is that it won't start 
minimized...

IIRC you can set the properties of this shortcut to "start minimized". Or does your executable override this?

That works great. It would be nice, however, to have it run as a service 
(like IIS or Apache), since in order for this to run, you have to log in.

Thanks for your help,

I took a look at this. It is true that oggdec does not support chained ogg vorbis steams, so it's 
basically not going to work with streamed situations in general. Now, if you comment out the check 
for the chain boundary on line 246, it will work in this applications AS LONG AS THE AUDIO 
PARAMETERS DON'T CHANGE. The issue is not that "no ogg headers are sent" it's that if the new set 
of vorbis headers for the fallback stream specify a change in audio parameters (since oggdec does 
samplerate conversion, this just means number of channels) there's no way to pass that information 
on with the pcm stream to ices.

So basically you want to be rebroadcasting the ogg stream, not re-encoding it.

I believe there is some way of forcing a Win32 app to run as a service as long as it doesn't require any input, but I can't find the details at the moment.  I can see it being a very useful option for the Icecast2 Win32 program.  It could be then used on a Windows server which are often not logged in for security reasons.  Maybe something for you to investigate sometime oddsock.  A service often generates a system tray icon at startup and only displays the main form when the icon is double-clicked.

Ross Levis.

<p>  Is there any way to run Icecast2 Win32 at Windows startup and at least one of the following: minimized, in the system tray, or as an NT/2000 service? I looked through the docs but couldn't find anything.

  Thanks,

Why not try http://www.firedaemon.com ?
Since I haven't used a Win32 based server is years I haven't used it in
a long time but it used to do the trick quite nicely...

I sent this before but I figured I'd send it again since my current
method is rather kludgey...

Whenever I try to send a HUP to icecast it always fails when re-reading
the config file:
  EROR event/event_config_read Error parsing config, not replacing existing config

However I know the config is good because the server starts up without
any issues (right now I've had to resort to just sending a TERM then
starting it right back up).

Anyone else having this problem? Is it something that is being
addressed?

Thanks,

This is just a wild guess ... but do you chroot() icecast?

If yes, and your configuration is "somewhere else", it works at first 
because icecast chroots after reading its config. Once it is running, it 
might not find the .xml file anymore due to the chroot.

If the problem goes away when you turn of <chroot>, that's probably the 
cause.

Hello,

I'm having problems running ices on OpenBSD 3.4 with input module sun. In the docs it is written that it should run also on OBSD, but it has also been tested?

Has anyone successfully run this on OpenBSD?

Thanks for help,

I don't think so. Using just one of them does not make the error go away.

<p>I have, however, found the error (after some debugging):

In the alsa imput module (placed in the source file im_alsa.c), the 
sample rate on the alsa device is set using the 
snd_pcm_hw_params_set_rate_near() call.

Reading the ALSA API it was suddenly clear to me, that this means that 
if the sound card does not like the sample rate, you ask for, alsa will 
just pick the nearest samplerate.

In my case, I asked for 44100, but the alsa driver was really 
initialised to 48000. No wonder there was too many samples when the 
encoder still thinks that it should use 44100 :-S

I have made a patch to im_alsa.c so that you at least will be warned 
that it selects another sample rate than you ordered. I will post it to 
the developer list.

<p>Had it not been for open source, I would never have found this one!

It wouldn't be particularly difficult to make oggdec work for chained streams 
in the simple cases (i.e. where the main audio parameters don't change). I 
could do that if people are actually going to find it useful...

I've taken another whack at a (hopefully) better looking web-based admin 
interface for icecast.  The look and feel is similar to the new icecast 
website we put together, so maybe there will be a bit of continuity.. :)

You can check out screenshots of the new look and feel here ->

and also pick up the new XSLT files from there too if you don't want to 
update to CVS, you can just drop these in without any server updates if you

Subject: [icecast] *Real* real time streaming (no delay/latency)?
Message-ID: <4021A27C.4040500@elgaard.net>



Hello

Does anyone have experience with _real_ real time streaming - i.e. with 
very little delay/latency?

I need to stream from point A to point B in near-CD quality via a 100 
Mbit network. That is easily done using icecast. But here is the tricky bit:

I want as little delay in the signal as possibble - preferrably below 50ms!

I have made a test setup encoding on and serving from an 800 MHz Pentium 
II with debian GNU/Linux, icecast 2 and IceS 2. That gave me a delay of 
1 or 2 seconds. I need it to be lower.

<p>I have seen hardware that will do the same with only a 30 ms delay. Is 
that possible at all with icecast - even on a fast machine? Has anyone 
tried it? Has anyone made measurements on it?

Bandwith is (almost) no problem. Would it be possible to avoid delay 
somehow using another format (e.g. flac)? And would that work with icecast?

Is there any other software, I should look at?

<p>I have also wondered if it would help to get a sound card with hardware 
support for MP(2|3) encoding. They exist, but do anyone know of one that 
has a Linux driver? I know that it will probably need some additions to 
IceS, but I don't mind getting  my hands dirty...

Any help or thoughts would be greatly appreciated.

<p><p><p><p>A bit about my project for the curious:

I work at a student radio station. Our FM transmitter is located some 3 
km's from our studio, and right now we pay quite a lot for a analog 
leased line to transport our air signal from our studio to the transmitter.

Fortunately, there is a 100 Mbit IP network between us and the building 
on which the transmitter is located (most of the way it's actually 
gigabit). We would like to use that IP network to transport the signal 
from our studio to the transmitter.

We use the air signal from the transmitter for control listening and for 
playing around us when we broadcast from outside our studio (from dorms 
or different parts of the university). Also, we use the air signal as 
headphone feed for our announcers. All that is almost impossible with a 
huge delay on the signal (by huge I mean in the order of seconds).

Anything above 90 ms delay is useless for our purpose.

I have ad an offer on some hardware that can do the trick, but for the 
price they are asking, I could easily buy 5 or 6 top-of-the-range PC's 
with decent sound cards. Also, the PC solution would be more flexible, 
allowing us to control our RDS signal and so on.

Besides working at the radio station, I am also a graduate student at 
Dept. of Computer Science at the University of Copenhagen, so I wouldn't 
mind writing a bit of code, if it was necessary.

There are 3 points at which significant latency (other than the actual network 
latency) is added in an icecast-style configuration:
  * Encoder
  * Server
  * Client

I don't think the icecast latency is particularly large. Both the encoder and 
client latency are likely to be significant. Both can be reduced without 
great difficulty.

Encoder-side: because of the way the ogg/vorbis libraries are designed, the 
natural output gives a relatively high latency (on the order of 200-300 ms is 
typical at moderate bitrates). This is easily reduced (with the penalty being 
slightly higher bitrates) by flushing the ogg stream after each vorbis 
packet. You should be able to hack ices2 to do this very easily - just 
replace calls to ogg_stream_pageout() with calls to ogg_stream_flush(). 

Client side: does the client do any buffering? Obviously, if it does, this is 
a major contribution to latency. Make sure it doesn't do any. I don't know 
what client you're using.

I suspect < 50 ms latency will be very difficult, but ~100 ms shouldn't be too 
hard.

Hi,

I can get ices2/icecast2 to broadcast ogg files in a playlist to FOOBAR 
in MS-Windows (and various apps in Linux). When I try to connect in 
WinAmp in MS-Windows, I get in error.log:

[2004-02-04  21:38:39] DBUG source/source_main Client added
[2004-02-04  21:38:41] DBUG format/format_generic_write_buf_to_client 
Client had recoverable error -1
[2004-02-04  21:38:42] DBUG format/format_generic_write_buf_to_client 
Client had recoverable error -1
[2004-02-04  21:38:43] DBUG format/format_generic_write_buf_to_client 
Client had recoverable error -1

Attached is my config files (xml) for icecast2 and ices2 - am I not 
setting something correctly?
It is strange it is working on many apps in Linux & Windows, but not 
Winamp...

Regards,
Murray Saul

What version of Winamp?  Wimamp3 is broken as regards streaming.

one problem apart from icecast is that tcp/ip over ethernet does not 
guarantee *when* your packets will arrive, or even in what order. 
while the chances are good that it works rather quickly, you can't 
sue anyone if it doesn't ;)
but once the network becomes congested, you are in trouble. if the 
network between your two locations is one cable, not shared, no 
hubs, it might work. but if it's part of a larger net with lots of 
background traffic, i wouldn't rely on it.

transmitting audio with low latency over networks has been a 
frequent topic on the linux-audio-dev list, because it would be ever 
so cool if it worked (think clusters of machines for huge 
synthesizers or effects racks).
there have been some suggestions on how to do it, you may want to 
search the archive at http://linuxaudiodev.org/archive.php3, but so 
far the results have been mixed :(

i can't think why you would want to use an encoded stream though. 
there's many more stages to tune for latency, and you don't get the 
original signal to your fm transmitter. why not stream the digital 
out of your radio desk? or do you have to pay per byte?

regards,

j?rn

Hi Joern,

Have a look at www.live.com

Ross Finlayson has source code available to "livecaster" which allows you to
stream audio using the RTP protocol over a UDP pipe.  Very efficient as
there is no TCPIP overhead.

http://www.live.com/liveCaster/

If you use lc which is part of livecaster, you can send the audio in from
your MP2/MP3 encoder via stdin

At the other end you should be able to decode the audio directly using a
compatible Linux player
http://www.live.com/liveCaster/receiving.html

Cheers,

Matt

i've used macromedia shockwave to connect to an ices playlist stream 
using icecast 1.3.  i haven't been able to get flash to connect to a 
streaming audio source yet.  if you have any code snippets or example 
sources from your flash player that would be a huge help.

Hi,

There has been much around discussing, how to get icecast2 working
with a flash player embedded to a webpage.

Another question by me, even if it's a bit offtopic:
Is there some pre-coded flash player available that can play shoutcast
streams?

Hi Mike,

I've encountered a webpage which also includes a small online radio.
They have somehow succeeded in coding a little flash-player that's
able to connect to a shoutcast stream.

You can find it here: http://www.bassx.de

I am using only WinAmp 2.x and 5.x
It works in WinAmp2.x and 5.x at the college network (T1 line), but not 
at home with cable modem
(even with firewall switched off). It tries to prebuffer over 20 minutes 
- 5 second burst of music and then
quits with message (-2:-11). Again, no problem if using FOOBAR2000, but 
it would be nice to have it
work in WinAmp.

As Mike mentioned, you're not going to get this low with Vorbis. However, if you're really able to 
use a fraction of your 100 Mbps link, you can trade bandwidth for latency by using a less 
space-efficient codec. FLAC, for example, allows block sizes down to 16 samples per channel; it 
would be straightforward to write a source client that did (uncompressed) flac encapsulation 
with latency comparable to that of your sound card's buffer.

Of course that means writing some code. Don't know if you're into that. Have you tried something 
obvious like 'netcat /dev/dsp' or 'wavr - | ssh remotehost wavp -' or the like? Those don't 
provide any reconnection logic on failure but you can do that in a script, or just manually if 
your network is sufficiently reliable.

Sound servers like esd and NAS can both probably do what you want as well. And someone should 
really write a network pipe for jack, if you want another coding option.

FWIW,

You could always run this as a service using Microsoft's tools from the NT
3.5 Resource Kit.  The two tools you need are srvany.exe and instsrv.exe.
I've used this many times on Win2k with no problems.  You can download the
resource kit from Microsoft here:
ftp://ftp.microsoft.com/bussys/winnt/winnt-public/reskit/nt35/i386/i386.exe

And there is an article about how to set it up here:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:
80/support/kb/articles/q137/8/90.asp&NoWebContent=1

I'd be curious to know if that works out.  I think if you change the setting
to allow the service to interact with the desktop, you'll get to see the
window when you log in.  But, it's been a while since I've used this method
and I can't remember for certain.

IIRC you can set the properties of this shortcut to "start minimized". Or
does your executable override this?

message:

"Hole in the stream; probably harmless"

Would this be causing a problem with WinAmp playing the stream in WinAmp 
2.x and 5.x?

Ahhh... how silly of me...

Didn't even think of the whole chroot() thing. Perhaps as a feature in
the future after icecast does the chroot() it can remove the chroot path
from the config file path stored in memory thus avoiding this problem.
But I guess for now I'll just have to make some symlinks in my
/usr/local/icecast directory.

there is. somebody announced a jack-over-udp client a week or so 
ago. browse the mailing list archive on jackit.sf.net to find out 
more. jo/rgen, if you are in hacking mood, i'm sure the author of 
the jack udp thingie would be interested in working with somebody 
who intends to use it professionally.

(btw, speaking of jack, ices2 has experimental jack support in the 
latest -kh snapshots. it's not yet real-time safe, but on lightly 
loaded systems it works quite well. i've been streaming the output 
of my mixing desk through a few jack apps to friends for a couple of 
days now :)

Hello,
In fact, we can use ogg123 | ices2 in place of curl | oggdec | ices2
But chained streams problem (for oggdec) is then replaced by
deadlock problems with ogg123 and icecast.
I will try it again with the latest icecast provided by karl, and I see and keep the list informed
about how it goes...

I discovered the problem.
I simply had to select a port like 8080 (i.e. get around the throttling 
issue)...
Works just fine now...

This worked, except I had to find the Windows 2000 Resource Kit versions 
of INSTSRV.EXE and SRVANY.EXE. They can be found, along with an article 
about creating your own services, at:

http://www.tacktech.com/display.cfm?ttid=197

I tried the WinNT versions of INSTSRV and SRVANY which you referenced, 
but I received errors. Once I downloaded the Win2000 versions, it worked 
like a charm. Important notes:

- You need to Add a Value for AppDirectory in the Parameters Key so that 
it knows to find the icecast.xml config file in the Icecast2 Win32 
directory.
- In the Icecast service properties, under the Log On tab, make sure the 
"Interact with Desktop" check box is checked.

This is so cool. Thanks everyone for your help!

Hello.

we are trying to setup some rebroadcast of live feeds with IceCast 2 and
darkice server on
dedicated machines. With some customers we have problems to get the the
mp3 stream
through fiorewalls on port 8000.

If I reconfigure the IceCast 2 server on port 80 it cannot create a
listener socket on port 80.

There is definitly no service on port 80 running.

Any suggestions are appreciated.
Best Regards

 - Johann

Normally you need to run services as the root user (which icecast recommends
against doing) for ports under 1024. So if you're running icecast 2 as a
non-root user, that might be your problem. I would try a different
non-standard port, like 8002, or whatever.

I've had problems with various isp's blocking uploads from port 80, 21, 23,
and even 8080. So if your users are trying to upload from port 80, they
might still have problems, even if you can get a listener socket on 80.

I compiled and installed both icecast2 and ices0 fine, but ices0 seems to

I've got it running fine right here, so that's not the problem.

What did you set as a source-password in icecast.xml (or whatever
config-file you use)? Don't tell me of course, ask this to yourself ;)

When you start ices you should have the -P flag or - when using the password
in a config-file - the <password></password>-tag set with that password.

Greetz,

Subject: [icecast] MB soundcards and PCI soundcards
Message-ID: <1076364286.10972.102.camel@quasi.ksl.com>



Here's a problem that I have uncovered on two entriely separate machines
using the latest icecast2 and ices2 software. Even when the onboard
soundcard is disabled, the PCI soundcard (which has been both a Creative
Live! and an Ensoniq soundcard) is unable to accept input or stdin
audio.
If I enable the onboard soundcard everything works well and I can stream
audio using icecast and ices. But using the PCI soundcard with the
onboard card disabled, no input is detected.
I have tested this so far on only RH9 with the latest updates.
Has anyone else come across this, and if so, how did they fix this? Not
a big issue, but I would like to use the nicer soundcards rather than
the built-in cards.
Thanks.
KJ

Subject: [icecast] Problem with Icecast2/Ices streaming MP3.
Message-ID: <1076368469.22846.45.camel@Almaroro>



Hello everyone,

I am running Icecast 2.0.0 with ices-3.0. I run ices on a machine which
has all the mp3 files I am playing and stream these mp3 to Icecast which
is running on another machine. Every now and then, say 2 hours. Ices
keeps churning out errors saying updating meta data and socket errors
and keeps retrying and after some time it suceeds for one file and then
when playing the next file it tries a couple of times and then ices says
too many stream errors and exits. ( I have attached the excerpts from
the log files of both ices and icecast below)

Has any one faced same problem ?

I would appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance,
Midhun Kumar Allu.

If you're using a unix system, then you need to run as root to bind to any 
port below 1024. 

You can run icecast as root, and using the <changeowner> directive in the 
config file to make it change to a non-root user. If you do this, icecast 
will start up, bind to the appropriate port as root, then change to the 
configured user (you don't want to actually run continually as root for 
safety/security reasons) before accepting connections. If you don't use 
<changeowner>, icecast will refuse to run as root.

You probably have it configured to use the wrong protocol.

Kerry,

I have two soundcards in my system, using RH 7.3, and I had a hell of a time 
getting the second one to work.  I think it was because I added the second one 
after I installed the machine.  I'm not sure anything I am about to say will 
help your case, but what the hell :).

My first problem was that I had /dev/dsp and /dev/dsp1, but both pointed to 
the same sound card.  Apparantly, this is because I am using a SB Live, and it 
uses two dsps.  So although I thought I saw two cards, I really only had one 
usable.

Once I made sure the module was loaded and running properly, I had to create 
two new /dev entries for the card to use - dsp2 and dsp3.  I did that with the 
following two lines:

mknod /dev/dsp2 c 14 35
mknod /dev/dsp3 c 14 51

After I did that, pointing my streamer (in my case DarkIce) at /dev/dsp2 got 
me access to the second card.

I also had to use aumix on /dev/mixer1 to set the levels on that second card.  
It defaulted the input to mute on me, so I wasn't getting anything at first.  
Unmuting it and boosting the level got me in business.

Maybe your RH install took the onboard sound and mapped it to the dsp and dsp1 
entries.  Maybe it preserves that mapping even though the card is "disabled" 
and is treating the new soundboard like a "second" card?

Hi everybody,

I am connecting to my Icecast/Linux server via SSH because I don't have any
monitor for my server yet. So I have a simple question for all Linux
specialists: how can I edit the icecast.xml file trough SSH?

Sorry if my question is more related to Linux than Icecast but I know a lot
of people participating to this list is using Linux!

Thanks in advance!

use a generic text editor, like vim, emacs, nano, pico, etc, etc...

Hi,

I dont know if I got the question right. It is simply straight forward.

*) Connect to the machine with ssh
*) Use an editor like vi/pico/nano/joe

Example :

$vi /etc/icecast.xml

$pico /etc/icecast.xml

Hope I didn't oversimplify the question.

Have fun,
Midhun Kumar Allu.

this is almost certainly a driver or device mapping issue. the 
answer depends on whether you use alsa or oss.

if you're using oss: use alsa :)
if you're using alsa: are both cards correctly installed? what does 
aplay -l say? what does lsmod | grep snd say?
have you specified the correct device to use? depending on your 
installation, the onboard sound chip might be set to be the default 
device.

btw, for all questions related to linux audio, may i invite you to 
the linux-audio-user list at 
http://linuxaudiodev.org/subscribelau.php3 ?
many people there use multiple soundcards (i've been doing so 
without problems for years), and will be able to help you with 
distro-specific stuff (i don't run rh, so i can't help you there.)
since this is a cross-platform list, os-specific driver issues won't 
be of much use to many readers anyway...

regards,

j?rn

btw, many thanks for your excellent howto. it helped me a great deal 
with a webcast of the linux audio developers' conference last year 
(http://linuxaudiodev.org/eventszkm2003.php3). kudos!

I use a command line like this:

It's of course the same password as in the icecast config ;)

I've tried to rename it in the web/ diectory, but it is always at

Hi Midhun,

Thanks for your answer; it's exactly what I needed. In fact I used to have a
monitor so I was doing all this kind of stuff with a graphical interface;
but now I have to do everything through SSH.

Thanks also the other persons who replied my email!

Hi,

I dont know if I got the question right. It is simply straight forward.

*) Connect to the machine with ssh
*) Use an editor like vi/pico/nano/joe

Example :

$vi /etc/icecast.xml

$pico /etc/icecast.xml

Hope I didn't oversimplify the question.

Have fun,
Midhun Kumar Allu.

there are 3 protocols: HTTP, ICY and XAUDIOCAST.
HTTP should be the one working with icecast2

Ok I figured it out. I didn't know it was possible for ices to use a XML
config. When I changed the ices configuration and used HTTP as
authentication protocol it worked like a charm.

btw, if the machine without the monitor has an xserver installed, 
you can even start graphical applications and see the output on the 
monitor of the other machine:

user at boxwithscreen:~> ssh -X user at boxwithoutscreen
[...]
user at boxwithoutscreen:~> xosview &

after a couple of seconds, the window should pop up on your screen.
(don't use this on slow links, such as a modem, but LAN is fine.)

Hi:

Make sure the file you are modifying is the one in your webroot.  Also, I
*think* there's some caching of stats (not sure) so give it a bit of time
to work, and also be sure to refresh your browser so that it's not say
pulling it out of some cache or proxy.

Jorn,
Yep, I checked all tose variables, and have tried installing things in
different manners. But this is something I am seeing on multiple
machines.
I can get one or the other to work just fine with normal Linux audio. I
will also look into subscribing to the linux audio list.
Fuinny that icecast is having problems only seeing the input on the PCI
card.
Haven't had a chance to really test out alsa. Perhaps it is time :-)
I'll keep looking into this.
I will be updating my FAQ pretty soon. I need to mention the latest
icecast-2.0.0 release and also update the section on darkice.
Thanks.

I'm sure the file I have modified is the one of the webroot (web directory)
And I've refreshed..
I hope this is ssth like a cache or something like that =)

Subject: [icecast] mp3-streaming client for icecast2
Message-ID: <40296B17.2030905@chili23.de>



Hi!

I'm looking for a streaming client for the icecast2-server. It should 
just feed mp3-files from a playlist to the icecast2-server. The old 
shout doesn't work:

hout -P a  -e 8000 -x -p /big/m3u/list.m3u

=>
[3:21] Size: 3231748 Bitrate: 128000 (41432 bytes/dot)
[Server error: [HTTP/1.0 401 Authentication Required        ]
WWW-Authenticate: Basic realm="Icecast2 Server"

Shout should do a http-login with user "source" I bet, but it cannot.

Also ices-0.3 doesn't work:

/usr/local/bin/ices -F /music/m3u/list.m3u -P a

=>
Logfile opened
Playing /music/mp3l/Bloodhound Gang/Hooray/18 Bloodhound Gang - Along 
Comes Mary.mp3
Error during send: Mount failed on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ices, error: 
Login failed
Error during send: Mount failed on http://127.0.0.1:8000/ices, error: 
Login failed

Is there a simple client that can stream mp3-files to icecast2.

Thank you so much.

Sincerely

   Frank

hi list
 . .i did try to setup icecast . . .for a audioinstallation.  . .. . worked
very good on the local network with 3 computer. The reason wy I post is: iI
have to find out what dimenson of server i have to get to realise the
following:
I have 6 computers maximum witch  should be able to send 3 streams to
icecast . .they are the source . .the same computers should receive 1 to 5 streams
of that what the icecastserver is broadcasting. The software I`m using is
pd(www.pure-data.org) . . ..so the question is  . .. .works this with a single
computer 2500 amd . .. .? . . and is there any trick to lower the latency . .
. .

thanx nos

If you move it to a different name that ends with .xsl, it'll be available 
under that name. If you move it to some other name, it won't be available. If 
you delete it, it won't be available.

I have no idea how you could be seeing it after you've removed it - it's not 
possible as far as I can tell. There's nothing special about the 'status.xsl' 
name.

ices 0.3 does work. You have it misconfigured.

Hi,

Just check if the ices you are using is indeed ices-0.3. If you use
ices-2.0 to stream you get a similar message.

ices-0.3 should run off the box.

Hope this helps.

Does EZStream have a problem with file names that include spaces (Am I just

greetings!

i'd like to incorporate a "now playing" section on my

i'm guessing i have to get the <xsl:value-of

tags from the status.xsl file.  not sure what else
needs to be coded into the index.html file to get this
info.

can anybody point me in the right direction?

nice idea. ;)

Correct guess.
My xslt-sheet looks like this:

<xsl:stylesheet xmlns:xsl = "http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform" version = "1.0" >
<xsl:output method="text" indent="yes" />
<xsl:template match = "/icestats" >
<xsl:for-each select="source">
<xsl:if test="@mount='/test.ogg'">
<xsl:value-of select="artist" /> - <xsl:value-of select="title" />
</xsl:if>
</xsl:for-each>
</xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

This (text/plain) page containing only one line of text is then read by an flash-applet & included by a php-page.

You could of course place an frame/i-frame in your index.html to have the users browser make the "lookup". Then you need to make the output method "html" and make some nice formatting that suits your needs.

Regards

Thomas

Hi from spain! (sorry, I speak only a little english) 

I collaborate with an spanish NGO and we're planning to set up an Internet radio station. I would like to base our project on linux and Icecast / liveice (right?) but I don't understand some terms of  "radio" practices. I need your experience&help;

the project should cover the following scenarios:

* A broadcast server on spain with a local speaker 
* A broadcast server on spain and remote speaker (possibly through long distances. For example, the broadcast on spain and the speaker from Honduras )
* A broadcast server on spain and remote collaboration with some speakers ( the local speaker collaborating on the same program with differents and  remote speakers )

It's difficult for me thinking about  2d and 3d scenarios. I understand a broadcast and "local" speaker with one ice streamer client, but, are possible long distances between broadcast server and streamer client? Another options (to compare)?. And what about "to mix" different speakers "around the world" (on the same program)?

Is possible to accomplish these options with linux/Icecast/liveice(or iceS). What do you think about this?

Best best regards,
;-))

Hi Ra?l,

interesting project ;-) So this is what I would recommend. For a number of
remote speakers (1 or more) it would make sence to mix them together in the
studio the local speaker is located. All remote speakers could mount as a
source at the broadcast server (shouldn't be a problem to have a bigger
distance between them). Other way would be to have a icecast server at each
remote speaker's location.
However, a PC could play these streams from the broadcast server on a number
of soundcards and the output of them is put into an analog mixer where the
local speaker can control the volume and can listen into the stream without
broadcasting. The main audio output from this mixer goes into the broadcast
server which creates the final stream.

This is how we make live broadcast from remote venues.

I hope I could help some,
Enrico M.

Ok, the first is more or less what I thought (and what i need), mix them
together in the "local" studio (where will exist the broadcast server,too)

mmm ... but I confused with  "... mount as a source at the broadcast
server...". Do you refer each remote location will have an streamer client
(pc) to send their signal (through Inet) to the broadcast server? or another
way?

<p>>Other way would be to have a icecast server at each

They want only a central broadcast server for controlling and planning the
kind of  programs (and to mount them).

OK.. I'm digesting ;-)) ...

... and analyzing ...
* I will have a broadcast server (bcs).
* this bcs will have various soundcards (n +1 -> N speakers + 1 final mix)
* the output of each soundcard is put into the analog mixer.
* the remote clients will send the signal to the bcs (through liveice?) .
* these channels will be received by bcs (and not broadcasted) and will
output them to the analog mixer (one channel per soundcard).
* The local speaker (or producer) will mix all and will send the results to
the bcs.
* the result will be broadcasted ...

right?

More doubts:

- about soundcards: are important terms like "latency 0"?or MP3 decoding by
hardware?, do you know  RME digi9336? can you recommend me any soundcard?

- Do you know if it is possible to control an MP3 file list  manually
( for example if someone want to launch these files one by one and on demand
while mix the rest of remote channels - it could be another pc playing as a
MP3 server ... )

- the rule 1 soundcard = 1 remote speaker isn't fixed, right?. If the number
of speakers grows I will have some way to mix various sources to the same
soundcard. yes?

one bcs routing various "channels" to each soundcard is possible with one
icecast server or I will need N icecast servers on the same machine?

Hi Raul,

Here is how I would set it up to answer your scenarios:

-One Icecast server in Spain.
-One source in Spain
-One source in Honduras
-One source in Guatemala (for example)
...

I would reserve a mountpoint for each one of these sources:
-Spain = my_radio.mp3 (Your listeners will listen to this mountpoint ONLY)
-Honduras = Honduras.mp3
-Guatemala = Guatemala.mp3
...

Let's say you use Winamp/Oddcast as source clients. If, you want to
broadcast a live from Honduras, you won't ask your listeners to switch to
"Honduras.mp3" so you have to set up your Spanish source (Winamp/Oddcast) to
listen to "Honduras.mp3" and resend the stream to "my_radio.mp3". In this
way, there will be a smooth transition between the Spanish and the Honduran
sources because the final user will always listen to "my_radio.mp3" (not
Honduras.mp3 or Guatemala.mp3).

Also, if you want to listen to several sources without broadcasting it on a
single computer, you don't necessarily need several soundcards. You can run
more than one instance of Winamp/Oddcast and use a silent output plugin
(attached to this mail). In this way, the audio pipeline is managed by
software and not hardware.

I don't know if it's the best solution, but I am just suggesting.

Saludos de Barcelona,
(?Yo tambien escribo desde Espa?a!)

MAX

exactly what I meant! :)

Concerning your questions regarding soundcards I can't give you any helpful
advice.

Do you want to broadcast the remote speakers one by one or all of them
together? If one by one you need just 1 soundcard, one for 'playing' the
remote speaker and 'recording' it together with the local speaker (Microphon
in). This can be done by one soundcard (captering master).

yeah, this also sounds like a good solution, but on the screen you can just
fade one chanel at a time (one mouse), at a mixer you can fade both
smoothly. Having several sources (Microphone, MP3, CD-Player, ...) it is
good  to mix them analog.

Ahh...well, that would explain it. Pity, I've felt that was one of the best 
features of Icecast. Hope it gets added soon. Continue to use 1.3.12 I 
guess. Thanks very much for the response.

Hola Mac (qu? bien, un espa?ol ;-)  )

> I would reserve a mountpoint for each one of these sources:
>-Spain = my_radio.mp3 (Your listeners will listen to this mountpoint ONLY)
>-Honduras = Honduras.mp3
>-Guatemala = Guatemala.mp3

Ok, it's seemed to my conversation with Eric. My Bc server will receive N sources, mix them and broadcast the final results, but I see some differences (or doubts cause my inexperience on audio streaming, I'm sure)

I thought that an streaming scenario was basically:

* A broadcast server (icecast server)
* A source (liveice, iceS ... )
* some receivers (WinAmp)

Translated to this project:

* Bc server with icecast server (independent of the final signal treatment  - analog, digital - ... )
* N speakers around the world, each one with your microphone and your liveice station, ready to speak live.
* many many people with WinAmp and ready to enjoy this radio ;-)

I confused with "you use Winamp/Oddcast as source clients". Do you refer WinAmp can work as liveice? or related to your latest comments, too,  "You can run more than one instance of Winamp/Oddcast and use a silent output plugin". Do you refer each speaker (honduras, caracas, barcelona) must to have a bc server too, and into the central studio I must to have various Winamp to listen each remote server for to mix and to resend the result to the central broadcast server?

returning to my first mail the more "strange" scenario could be a program with N remote collaborations. More than one speaker live on the same program, one in honduras, one in madrid, one in caracas ...  bcause the people that will work in this project (the speakers at the central studio) come from a "traditional" radio world and they like to have an analog mixer to control the faders and the collaborations live , my idea was to set up an "easy" way to afford their daily work. The more easy way for them could be to have an analog mixer with N inputs, one for the principal speaker, one for each remote speaker, the stereo channels for music files,  the master output (to the bc server)...

In this way, I can assume that in an input channel (analog mixer) I can attach pre-mixed sources with your method (although still I haven't understood it well :-(   ) so I could to pre-mix the remote speakers to one stereo input channel to the analog mixer. it's ok?, so this means that now I will need:

* 1 card for all the remote speakers (to pre-mix and reserve only 1 stereo input line)
* the rest will be mixed live directly on the analog mixer (music files, principal speaker ... )
* All the remote speakers will have a microphone and a pc station (previous doubts Winamp vs liveice)
* Even so if i need I can "associate" one source with one card (only forecast) and send the signal to one input channel.

OK?

I like it .. this world is very very interesting

very very thanks, Mac and Enrico

<p>Hi Raul,

Here is how I would set it up to answer your scenarios:

-One Icecast server in Spain.
-One source in Spain
-One source in Honduras
-One source in Guatemala (for example)
...

I would reserve a mountpoint for each one of these sources:
-Spain = my_radio.mp3 (Your listeners will listen to this mountpoint ONLY)
-Honduras = Honduras.mp3
-Guatemala = Guatemala.mp3
...

Let's say you use Winamp/Oddcast as source clients. If, you want to
broadcast a live from Honduras, you won't ask your listeners to switch to
"Honduras.mp3" so you have to set up your Spanish source (Winamp/Oddcast) to
listen to "Honduras.mp3" and resend the stream to "my_radio.mp3". In this
way, there will be a smooth transition between the Spanish and the Honduran
sources because the final user will always listen to "my_radio.mp3" (not
Honduras.mp3 or Guatemala.mp3).

Also, if you want to listen to several sources without broadcasting it on a
single computer, you don't necessarily need several soundcards. You can run
more than one instance of Winamp/Oddcast and use a silent output plugin
(attached to this mail). In this way, the audio pipeline is managed by
software and not hardware.

I don't know if it's the best solution, but I am just suggesting.

Saludos de Barcelona,

Ok, the first is more or less what I thought (and what i need), mix them
together in the "local" studio (where will exist the broadcast server,too)

mmm ... but I confused with  "... mount as a source at the broadcast
server...". Do you refer each remote location will have an streamer client

OK.. I'm digesting ;-)) ...

... and analyzing ...
* I will have a broadcast server (bcs).
* this bcs will have various soundcards (n +1 -> N speakers + 1 final mix)
* the output of each soundcard is put into the analog mixer.
* the remote clients will send the signal to the bcs (through liveice?) .
* these channels will be received by bcs (and not broadcasted) and will
output them to the analog mixer (one channel per soundcard).
* The local speaker (or producer) will mix all and will send the results to
the bcs.
* the result will be broadcasted ...

right?

More doubts:

- about soundcards: are important terms like "latency 0"?or MP3 decoding by
hardware?, do you know  RME digi9336? can you recommend me any soundcard?

- Do you know if it is possible to control an MP3 file list  manually
( for example if someone want to launch these files one by one and on demand
while mix the rest of remote channels - it could be another pc playing as a
MP3 server ... )

- the rule 1 soundcard = 1 remote speaker isn't fixed, right?. If the number
of speakers grows I will have some way to mix various sources to the same
soundcard. yes?

one bcs routing various "channels" to each soundcard is possible with one
icecast server or I will need N icecast servers on the same machine?

Subject: [icecast] relaying using latest builds
Message-ID: <1076601428.27031.13.camel@quasi.ksl.com>



Does anyone have a working configuration of relaying using icecast-2.0.0
and ices-2.0-Beta4? Also, anyone using multiple streams from the master
server to the slave?
I had relaying and multiple streams working great using a CVS download
sometime ago and tried setting it up with the latest builds and it is
appears to work, but no sound is coming from the slave box. Also, some
of the syntax has changed.
Not sure if this is a bug or my audio card. I am able to set up single
streams and stream from each of the test machines. This works on two RH9
boxen and one Fedora box here at work as well as my test Fedora box at
home. Both live and playlist streaming works.
Just having problems getting multiple streams (one at 96kbps and the
other at 16kbps) and relaying to work.
I can post my prior configs and the new configs if anyone is interested.
Thanks.
KJ

I'd like to relay content running on an icecast server to a Darwin 
Streaming server.

Darwin doesn't have relay capability. Icecast can pull from one 
server to make content available on another.

What are my options for grabbing a source at one server and sending 
it on another without re-encoding?

Hi:

If you have a card like an SB Live, you could have all the remote streams
playing and use something like alsamixer to set the volumes of these
sources relative to each other, and then feed the lot through one mixer
channel on your mixer.

You will hit two problems though.  The first is that you will need to have
a stream for remote participants to listen to.  Finding a way to send the
local host plus all other remote parties but not their own voice out to
them will be tricky.  If they can cope with hearing their own voice coming
back to them, or you can send them a mix where you can mute the remote feed
for them while they are talking, then perhaps you'll be OK.

The other problem you'll hit is latency.  Not sure how much of a problem
this will be, it all depends on how much buffering both the source and
client programs use.  If you're using MP3, you could use something like
mpg123 to play the remote streams, which uses very little buffering.  But
it's possible that the latency will be too big to be workable.  If you
could use speex with icecast or some other tool using speex for remotes,
then you'd be OK.

In fact, both these problems *could* be solved by using something like the
open H323 programs and using their conference server to connect everyone.
Pretty low latency and everyone would hear everyone else without hearing
themselves.  The only bummer about open H323 is that I don't know how to
get the sampling rate any higher than 11khz, which is not really good
enough for broadcasting (IMHO).

BTW: AFAIK, you can't use liveice with icecast2, you can use darkice
though.

Geoff.

OK. The only doubt I have about this; I always understood that pre-mixing must occurs into the broadcast server (or better on another pc listening these mountpoints?). I say, I will have mountpoints for each remote speaker and there will be a way to pre-mix and put them to the analog mixer. If I not mistake this can be translated as to have 1 winamp per mountpoint playing their source.mp3 and mixing on alsamixer... it's right or there are another and better way?

another doubt is: 
How to send the final mix (from analog mixer) to the bc server? would be right to have a source client on the same machine where is installed icecast server to convert the final mix?

Does someone know more about speex vs icecast?

I'm reading about speex and is very interesting. There are speex plugins for WinAmp and seems to be capable to sampling till 32Khz. Perhaps there would be a way to send (speex based) a final mix to all speakers ... 

... how another Icecast-users achieve to solve this trouble today? returning "a mix" to a remote speaker and avoiding latency problems ... is not a common scenario? I'm the one? ;-)

Yeah, that's right. If you want the remote speakers to be able to listen to
the other speakers this becomes a little complicated. If you hear your own
voice with a latency more than 1/10 or 1/5 second it becomes very
distracting! This latency really is a problem.

And mixing a certain signal for every remote speaker also means a huge
effort. And you need to decode each of this signal, which means you need to
create N MP3 streams, that's a lot of CPU laod.

But the remote Users don't need to hear the local speaker in 128kBit
quality, therefore you could establish a H323 session with all remote
speakers and the local speaker in it (if H323 works with multiple clients,
I'm not sure). This can be in low quality. Everybody can hear the other
speakers and vice versa. For broadcasting, the high quality signal from each
remote speaker is send to the studio (just one direction).

Here are pictures of the two layers, layer 1 is the icecast MP3-stream,
layer 2 is the H323 RTP-stream:
http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~mie/layer_1.gif
http://www-user.tu-chemnitz.de/~mie/layer_2.gif

But I doubt that 2 programs (ices and the H323 software) can capture the
microphone channel of one soundcard simultaniously. Maybe there are
technologies out there to grant multiple access (I am sure there is),
otherwise two soundcards and two mics at each remote speaker location would
be necessary :-(

Well, this is getting quite complex ;-) I love it, though!

find a client for icecast (mpg123, wget, fetch, ...), put the content to
standard out, find a source for darwin (sorry, I don't know any) and let it
use the standard in.

oh!, very good graphics. These solve enough of my doubts about  "practices". Very thanks Enrico.    

Well, according to H323 graphic, it will be necessary to establish N to (N-1) channels on each speaker ...  or it seems. In any case I must to read about H323 a Mega-bit more ... ;-))

I suppose today someone must have solved this problem and it must exist some solution ... and open solution ;-)

I hope ...

wget might be the things to pick up the stream. What just puts a 
stream out in icecast1 format (that's what Darwin needs).

Will the old ices work for that? I tried to compile ices (after 
installing libshout). I keep getting that /usr/bin/pkg-config 
couldn't find libshout. How do I fix that?

Subject: [icecast] Line input to client for Icecast Server
Message-ID: <200402132327.i1DNR4EA030999@toolz.com>



My needs are simple.  I need a Windows client to accept the line input
on my sound board and stream it to an Icecast server.  I plan to 
encode the stream at 56kbps stereo.

I tried this about 2 years ago using Winamp with the Oddsock plugin.
This turned out to be a very time-wasting excersize in futility.
I gave up, but now I'm back hoping the technology (and documentation) is there.

My server is already running 4 streams, two 56kbps and two 24kbps.
They are using playlists from encoded mp3 files on the server.

Thanks,

Hi:

If you only want to grab the linein and send it straight out without any
compression or other processing, you could use the line recording mode of
streamtranscoder (see www.oddsock.org).  Of course, the oddsock DSP plugin
either using its advanced controls or in combination with a line recording
plugin would achieve the same, with the added ability to apply other
effects and EQ.  All depends what you want, I guess.

Geoff.

Im running in a chroot'd environment:

RH 9.0
lame-3.93.1
icecast-2.0.0
LiveIcePatched-1.0.0
xmms-1.2.7

I was able to get icecast running on port 8000, I was able to get liveice compiled and can see the .so file within xmms.  Im pretty sure I have xmms configured to match my icecast config(passwords for source match).  When I start up xmms I get the following error in my icecast error.log

There was a thread some days ago about using http headers instead of icy,
maybe that could help? Search the archive for more information.

Hi:

Unless anyone's released an update, liveice does not work with icecast2.

If you just want something to read from the soundcard, maybe darkice is for
you.  Or, since you're using XMMS, try oddcast DSP for XMMS (visit
oddsock.org).

Geoff.

I just needed some more time to work this out. I finally got things
working with three different streaming options and I am successfully
doing relaying from three different machines.
I will post my findings on my HowTo page at
http://quasi.ksl.com/icecast/
If anyone has anything else to contribute or add, I'd be happy to add
it.
Thanks. I just needed more time to work out the kinks in my configs.

If you are not too bothered about running more experimental code, then
try my mods, I've added this weekend.

http://www.xiph.org/~karl/icecast-2.0-kh26.tar.gz

just add <on-demand>1</on-demand> to the relay definition. The bulk of
the infrastructure to support on-demand relays should be going in CVS as
it really deals with something else.  The extra work for implementing
on-demand specifically needs to be discussed before going into CVS

<p>Liveice doesn't support icecast2. There's an experimental patch I wrote 
floating around that might fix it, but I didn't test it.

Subject: [icecast] changeowner question
Message-ID: <003201c3f47b$05889de0$0200a8c0@dragon>



I just installed Icecast2 and the installation was a sucess. However, when I go to startup Icecast. It's reply is: 

[root at linuxserver bin]# ./icecast -c /etc/icecast.xml
WARNING: You should not run icecast2 as root
Use the changeowner directive in the config file
[root at linuxserver bin]#

<p>So then I go into the icecast.xml and alter the changeowner User to admin. Here is a bit from my icecast.xml config file:

   <security>
        <chroot>1</chroot>

        <changeowner>
            <user>admin</user>
            <group></group>
        </changeowner>

    </security>

<p><p>When I go to start up Icecast, It replys with the following:

[root at linuxserver bin]# ./icecast -c /etc/icecast.xml
Couldn't find user "admin" in password file
Changed root successfully to "/usr/share/icecast".
WARNING: You should not run icecast2 as root
Use the changeowner directive in the config file
[root at linuxserver bin]#

<p>So my question is where is the icecast2 user password file located?

Thanks heaps.

Nathan

I guess it is the system password file (/etc/passwd), means: the user
'admin' is not existing at your machine.

Subject: [icecast] time out and buffering issues
Message-ID: <1077054767.5544.38.camel@quasi.ksl.com>



I've upgraded a couple servers to the latest icescast2 and ices2
sources. Everything works well with relaying. 
However, I am getting some reports that after about 50 minutes the
stream on the relay machine dies and people are unable to connect again
using Winamp-2.91. They have to close up and restart Winamp. 
I am thinking this may be a problem with the tree separate audio streams
I am running out of a single box. When it was just two streams, all
worked well.
I am of the opinion this might also be a network issue for these people
since I have been playing a relayed stream continuously since Friday
with no hiccups within an internal network. laso, my own master box has
three separate streams on it.
Has anyone seen any similar issues? Just wanting to rule out any
software glitches.
Thanks.

I could really use a hand.

I need to relay an MP3 stream to a Darwin server.

Would

wget -O - http://picasso.astro.ufl.edu:8000/icy_0 | ices

be a reasonable approach? Darwin uses icecast protocol. I don't want to 
transcode, just pull the stream and send it.

Is there a better way?

Right now I'm pulling the stream with WinAmp on Windows and resending 
with Oddcast, but quality sucks since I'm just re-encoding.

Is there a method to code on XHTML webpage that will use a "scope" to 
display the music stream that is being played? (like something using 
JavaScript?)...

Just curious...

AFAIK liveice isn't a supported project anymore.  So I've taken it upon 
myself to make it work and I'm about to release something called 
liveice-sn, which is an updated version to support Icecast2 style login 
as well as Icecast1.  Most of the code has come from MikeS on #icecast 
I've just been making the changes to the config file code.  Anyone that 
wants to test one of the betas mail me.

It Lives!

<p>> AFAIK liveice isn't a supported project anymore.  

It was supported to the extent that I'd offer advice occasionally, but 
that was about all I had time for.

Hi Murray,

Depends on what data you want to use for that scope. ATM the only usefull data I can see in the source file (/admin/stats.xml) would be number of listeners. If you know about the bitrate of the stream you could translate this additionally to bandwidth.

To realize this you have several choices:
- do something using the built in xslt possibilities.
- put out the raw listener numbers and process it with an external app (php/gd/perl/python)

Depends on what you want to have as output...
I like my stats as a history graph:
http://dk0td.afthd.tu-darmstadt.de/mrtg.png

This is accomplished using mrtg + some xlst + some wrapper so mrtg can read the output.
I'll put up a webpage covering this topic, but am quite busy ATM. Don???t expect this before middle/end of next week.
Oh, and - yeah uhh - nowadays I'd probably choose its successor RRDTool...
But should be fairly similar to set up.

Regards

Thomas

Maybe you could work together with Scott (the author)? In my eyes 
it's not needed to branch off a new liveice and have development 
divide into several trees. Please check if you can arrange to work on 
it together and simply package a new liveice-release. Would be better 
IMHO.

 Stefan

Hi Thomas,

So those possible solutions could allow for an audio spectrum analyzer 
to be on a webpage?
(i.e. like the ones you can see on XMMS or WinAmp?)

no, you missunderstood my explanation.
There is no way to do this from xslt.

For such an feature you would either need to stream the content to the client, decode it there and display the wave-form or decode it on the server and send an outputstream corresponding to the waveform which would then be displayed by some sort of applet (java/flash)

IMHO I don???t see any sense in such a feature.

Thomas

Hi Thomas,

Thanks for the info,
I just wanted to experiment with a different effect for my webpage...
I will check out Java/Flash...

Hi.

<p>When I kick a broadcaster to start another streaming on this mountpoint,
all the listeners are disconnected.
Is it possible not to have them disconnected, like with shoutcast?

If yes, how, and if not, why ? =)

<p>Thanks

help is greatly appreciated.

Only solution that comes to my mind: You should be able to create a 
fallback-mount, kick the broadcaster, all people will be transfered 
to the fallback and then you can pick up that mountpoint again from a 
new broadcaster. Guess that should work, though I haven't yet tried.

Hope it helps ...

Yes, provide a fallback mountpoint (and a stream on that fallback - which 
could just be a simple looping playlist).

If you want to do more complex things that what 2.0 allows (fallbacks in 2.0 
are very limited), you might want to try the cvs version, which allows more 
complete/flexible fallback behaviour.

Liveice uses an old protocol which isn't supported in icecast2. 
I hacked together a patch the other day to make liveice work, someone is 
putting that together with the intent to release an update to liveice with 
proper support.

OH MAN THANK YOU!!! I have been pulling my hair trying to get this $hit to
work for weeks now.  What other DSPs do you recommend instead of LiveIce?
Either that or when do you expect the patch to be released?

Thank you so much!!!

I managed to get liveice working. It has to do with the new icecast2
security. I've included a 'Hack' to bypass the need for the source to
use the username. Basically they all have a username (internally to
Icecast) of 'source'

I really think the new authentication mechanism is a plus, But the rest
of the world not quite bleeding has its drawbacks too.

I read somewhere that there sill be an option to set the username to
whatever you want ( and hope 'null' is an option for backwards
compatability). 

I believe this will work, mine did, but I was really busy hacking
several other things that night I may have missed someting...
icecast2 - letme-in hack
 MRU 20040124 V0.3  pjf at cape.com Pete Flaherty

This hack is for the connections.c source file, and will make the
username 'source'
Icecast2 requires the use of a username password pair for
authentication. 

Many sources at this poing (eg xmms liveice ) do not supply any type of
username, 
 and if they do it is not set to 'source'. This hack willl force the
username to 'source'
 without regaurd for what the source program is telling it.
 
-- WARNING -- This hack bypasses a small part of the icecast2 security,
and is not
 recommended for public production servers. Tightening of security to
only allow
 specific IPs to stream to the server is encouraged.

Reference the hacked version is from CVS as of Jan 24 2004, though this
should be 
 applicable to most icecast2 source code.
 
You will need to compile source code to make a working icecast server

Pete - Thanks for the hack, I've gone in an adjusted the necessary
lines(Even though my C is REALLY rusty, cut and paste to the rescue), I
re-compiled the source, so hopefully things will work once I get home to
test.  You mentioned that I shouldnt use this for a Public Production
server, is there any other security measures I can take to override this
exploit? I had planned on running it public, but maybe not anymore.   Im
jail root'd and will have the files locked down. Thoughts?

Wel It's a kinda standard disclaimer.  Truth is I believe this is as
secure as Icecaast1x.  But I didn't write the code, and can't be 100%
sure..... and of course needs testing.

Mine has been running for about 2 weeks now, so if nothing else it's
stable

You should look at python for this.  Use py-imaging, have it generate a 
.mng (because gif is still a little evil) with frames generated from 
actual stream data.  Not very difficult overall.  I thought about 
putting this together myself some time ago.

Subject: [icecast] streaming ogg and mp3 on the same machine
Message-ID: <1077223443.1000.44.camel@quasi.ksl.com>



I have been able to successfully stream ogg vorbis as both a playlist
and as a live stream off my icecast2 server here using port 8000. Works
great. 
I can also stream MP3 live audio using darkice and icecast2 off the same
box using port 8001.
But I have been unable to create a situation where I can stream *both"
ogg and mp3 off the same machine. I have even created a new icecast
directory to store the darkice and mp3 configs.
I'm looking to minimize the number of servers currently running. ANyone
had luck getting this to work?
Thanks.

darkice can stream both ogg and mp3 at the same time, to the same 
server, or different servers...

you'll have to be a bit more specific in the error you're getting,
icecast can stream ogg and mp3 at the same time provided they use
different mountpoints.  The other area which could be an issue is if
your live capture system only allows for one app to record at any one
time.

well, it's in the darkice distribution :)
the sample config there streams to a shoutcast, icecast and icecast2 
server, two mp3 streams and one ogg vorbis.

also you might want to read the man page darkice.cfg:

man darkice.cfg

but if you need other configs, I can send one to you.

Thanks for the superfast reaction.

You got me started thinking.

I got rid of the following lines number 3 and 8 hereunder. They were
present in the example xml and I think that they don't belong here
because icecast won't run if chroot is not being used........

Now it starts. I am very happy about this!!!! :-)

Lines 3 and 8 specified the beginning and end of a commented out section.
The chroot section is commented out since you only need to configure it if
you are running it as root (you're encouraged to run it as someone else)
and should be edited before use at any rate.

Not sure if this has been fully answered yet, but in order for chroot
services to run effectively you will need to change the ownership of all
directories and files to, in this case, nobody:nobody.  If you are not very
familar with running chroots, you will also need to disable the shell login
within your /etc/passwd file ex like this:

icecast:x:504:505::/opt/icecast:/sbin/nologin

In this case I set the home dir to my chroot directory where Icecast begins,
but also disable the shell login.  Im really anal about my users and
services matching so I created a specific user for running icecast.  In your
icecast.xml file you will also need to set your base directory to match your
chroot:

         <!-- basedir is only used if chroot is enabled -->
        <basedir>/opt/icecast</basedir>

        <!-- Note that if <chroot> is turned on below, these paths must both
             be relative to the new root, not the original root -->
        <logdir>/logs</logdir>
        <webroot>/share/icecast/web</webroot>
        <adminroot>/share/icecast/admin</adminroot>
        <pidfile>/share/icecast/icecast.pid</pidfile>

<p>Let me know if you need anymore help setting this up.  This seems to be one
aspect of icecast I found rather easy for myself.  Now if I can just get it
connected to a DSP!!!

Cheers,

David

Hi,

As a relative newby to linux I figured it out myself that the security on
the dirs, as you mentioned. had to be opened. As far as the shell login, I
use the user "icecast" and have the following setup:
icecast:x:503:505::/home/icecast:/bin/bash

I believe that it might be wiser to indeed disable the login of icecast, but
on my redhat 3.0 as machine it is not required in order to perform the
"chroot" operation.

Hmm Im not too familar with RH AS, I have been using Redhat since 5.2
though, and in my experiences its better to be safer than sorry.
Essentially what you are allowing is the icecast user the ability to login
to a shell, which can lead to disaster.  Just a piece of advice, I would
disable the shell on that user!!  Good Luck and let me know if you have any
other questions on getting Icecast up.

this is not implemented, whether it will I'm not sure. I suspect it
could be added, but I haven't looked into it.

Maybe what you could do is create a .pls playlist file, which contained
first an intro file, then secondly connected to the live stream.

Subject: [icecast] icecast shuffle
Message-ID: <1077366198_145@fels.p>



Hi there,

 

I am using icecast with ezstream. I have several mountpoints. For each
mountpoint I play a set of tracks which form a cd.

 

I create the filelists with a command  similar to the following:

 

find ~/Music/lennycravitz/* -type f -name '*.mp3' >
~/Music/lennycravitz/lennycravitz.m3u

 

So far, everything is great.

 

Now I would like to be able to use a shuffle/random playlist, so that I
don't know the next song. This playlist is then based on all the cd's which
are place on the harddisk. A playlist is a static snapshot. So it might not
even be possible to do this.

 

Anyone any idea's?

 

Cheers,

 

JK

Not sure if this is a limit of icecast or ezstream.

These lines are the start and end of a commented-out section. They're meant to 
be here - most users don't run icecast as root. You only need this section if 
you're running it as root - and you should only be running it as root if you 
need to run it on a port <= 1024.

The standard way of implementing this is to link to a playlist file (rather 
than directly to the stream), and have two entries in the playlist - the 
'greeting' file, then the actual stream.

How about having a config setting for Icecast which allows you to 
specify bumper track URLs to be sent in the .m3u files Icecast 
generates for listeners?  This seems simple enough to write...

Message-ID: <1077523746_155@fels.p>



Hi,

I can run icecast as root and have it switched to another user e.g.
"icecast".

    <security>
        <chroot>0</chroot>
        <changeowner>
            <user>icecast</user>
            <group>icecast</group>
        </changeowner>
    </security>
</icecast>

The advantage of this strategy is that the icecast user doesn't have to have
login capabilities at any time. E.g. when for whatever reason you need to
start icecast again, you don't need to give this user (icecast user in my
case) login capabilities.

Hi,

Is lograte can be used to rotate icecast.log, ... ? IceCast seams to 
keep files open during is running time. So, when you try to move 
icecast.log, it still writing is the moved file. Moreover, if you delete 
the file, icecast doesn't write any more.

Best regards,

It sounds like you're not sending the HUP signal after renaming the
file, only after the HUP signal is sent will the log files be re-opened.

Subject: [icecast] statically link icecast2.
Message-ID: <20040223153526.GC17344@mail.librelogiciel.com>



Hi there,

I'd want to know how can I statically link icecast 2 when compiling 
it on my laptop.

I want to compile it there, then just copy the final statically 
linked executable on a server which doesn't currently have the 
appropriate libraries (and for which upgrading is currently not an 
option).

I've searched a lot, and tried --enable-static and --disable-shared, 
but these options don't do this, they are for library generation, 
not for library linking. 

The only solution I can think of is to manually modify the 
automatically generated makefiles, which is IMHO completely stupid. 

(I admit this problem has nothing to do with IceCast but more 
probably with autoconf/automake, but IceCast is the software I need 
to compile) 

Thanks in advance for any help

bye

Assuming gcc is used (the default many cases) and provided you have the
static libs installed, you should be able to build it statically with

make CFLAGS=-static

I currently utilize Icecast on my website, but I am looking for the same 
kind of functionality as I get with realaudio server when I stream 
static content - namely, the ability to seek, show the time remaining, 
etc, especially with Vorbis audio.

I realize the intent of Icecast is to serve mainly live, streaming 
content (or at least radio-style content), but I utilize it mostly for 
streaming static files already on my webserver.

Does anyone have any tips on whether or not this is at all possible with 
Icecast, and/or if there are any other open-source projects (barring the 
Helix DNA server project), that would offer this on a WinXP platform?

Thanx in advance!

This should be possible to implement in icecast, but it's not currently 
supported.

I think it'd require:
Sending correct content-length headers for static content (I think we already 
do this? It's easy, anyway)
Supporting the Range (or is it Content-Range? I forget) header. This is fairly 
complex, but not really that hard.

Is anybody working on this, or should I just on the dev-list and throw 
in the suggestion?  If Icecast were to implement this, then Realaudio 
server would have very little in terms of most usage over Icecast.  It 
would easily allow a large library of audio to be accessible, but not 
downloadable, for many people, with no sideeffects or problems.

For example, it is difficult and not always reliable to seek in a Vorbis 
stream when using HTTP-push (is that what it is when you just download 
it and listen to it via Winamp - pseudo-streaming?)

This doesn't seem to work. If I use the file command on the
icecast executable, it still says that the file is dynamically linked.

If I use ldd I've got :

port50-2:~/icecast-2.0.0/src$ ldd icecast 
        libssl.so.0.9.7 => /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libssl.so.0.9.7 (0x4002a000)
        libcrypto.so.0.9.7 => /usr/lib/i686/cmov/libcrypto.so.0.9.7 (0x40059000)
        libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x4014a000)
        libz.so.1 => /usr/lib/libz.so.1 (0x4014e000)
        libpthread.so.0 => /lib/libpthread.so.0 (0x4015f000)
        libm.so.6 => /lib/libm.so.6 (0x401b0000)
        libc.so.6 => /lib/libc.so.6 (0x401d2000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 => /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x40000000)
port50-2:~/icecast-2.0.0/src$

All the libraries above exist both as a .so and as a .a

Interestingly, when I compile without the CFLAGS=-static, there are
additionnal libraries when I do an ldd, and executable is smaller, 
so I suspect that the statical linking worked somewhat, but not
completely : in fact it worked for all "non-system" libraries.

Any other idea ?

Thanks in advance

bye

Well, have you tried grabbing a stream with wget? Works perfect. So 
again: It's easily downloadable, all icecast-content. Or did I get 
something wrong?

Only good solution in my eyes would be to use rtp/rtps or mms:// or 
similar as streaming-protocols. However, nobody jet tried to 
implement something like that afaik :-((

Hi everybody,

I am trying to parse an xsl file on Icecast/Linux (RH9) but I always get the
message "Could not parse XSLT file". I don't think it's a problem with my
XSL libraries because I can parse status.xsl and status2.xsl.

Also, the file I am trying to parse on the Linux box can be parsed without
any problem on my windows/icecast box.

I guess there is a mistake in my code. Can anybody take a look at the
attached file? I am trying to isolate the "title" element and generate a
kind of XML file...

Thanks in advance,

MAX

Hi folks!

I'm trying to run icecast2.0.0-1 on my router machine. Since this is a 
Pentium 75 with minimal configuration, I'd like not to compile it, but 
downloaded the binary distribution. After installing and configuring (not 
my first, others were on Win32) everything looks fine, but ... well look 
for yourself:

<----------------------->
nserv:~ # icecast

openssl-devel-0.9.7b-74
nserv:~ #
<----------------------->

I have openssl0.9.7b WITH sources installed.

Maybe there's a problem in locating the Files? I'm just getting used to 
Linux ;-))

maybe you need to add other flags to gcc to get all the shared lib
references, try

make CFLAGS="-static -static-libgcc"

If you want a good way to test out your xsl files, the following will help 
quite a bit :

1. get a copy of the stats tree in a file somewhere : wget 
http://admin:hackme at server:port/admin/stats;mv stats stats.xml
2. run xsltproc stats.xml yourfile.xsl

xsltproc will try to perform the transform and give you much better 
messages than icecast will (icecast just says Cannot parse, but xsltproc 
will give you file and line numbers and contextual information)

Subject: Re: [icecast] Parsing problem

If you want a good way to test out your xsl files, the following will help 
quite a bit :

1. get a copy of the stats tree in a file somewhere : wget 
http://admin:hackme at server:port/admin/stats;mv stats stats.xml
2. run xsltproc stats.xml yourfile.xsl

xsltproc will try to perform the transform and give you much better 
messages than icecast will (icecast just says Cannot parse, but xsltproc 
will give you file and line numbers and contextual information)

Subject: [icecast] What's your setup?
Message-ID: <403BB724.2030106@hidayahonline.org>



After reading several of the posts to this listserv, I realize that I am 
hardly utilizing Icecast to its full potential.

If it's not a problem, would anyone like to describe their typical setup 
and/or usage for Icecast?  For example, describe your platform, what 
helper applications/utilities you use with Icecast, and/or your 
integration of Icecast with your website, if that applies.

I really want to step-up my usage of Icecast on my site, and I'm looking 
to see what worked for others.

Thanx in advance.

Subject: [icecast] Icecast/IceS relay question
Message-ID: <1077659657.9889.7.camel@jwilhelm.ofsloans.com>



Okay... I realize this has probably been asked dozens of times, but I
can't seem to find a definitive answer after googling and archive
scanning.

What I'm looking to do is simply relay one stream (In this case, a
Shoutcast stream), re-encode it at a lower bitrate, and then
re-broadcast it at this lower bitrate. Obviously for purposes of
providing a dialup stream.

At this time, I don't have access to the system that provides the source
for the stream, so I need to pull the relay and do the re-encode
locally. Is ices able to do this? Or perhaps any of the other related
tools? I've found various Perl scripts to re-encode using different
tools (wget/curl to pull, lame to re-encode, then pushing to the
source), but I would prefer to use an "official" method if such a thing
exists.

you could use wget/curl feeding mp3 to ices 0.3 via stdin, another way
is using streamtranscoder.

Ah ha! I got it working with streamTranscoder! Thank you very much!

Should something to this effect perhaps be added in the official
documentation/FAQ? I would think this may be a widely appreciately, yet
not widely known tool...

Anyhow, thanks again!

Hi everybody,

I am wondering if Icecast can post the duration of the currently played song
or the remaining time to an XML file. Is it possible?

Not possible - icecast doesn't know how long it is.

Hi Mike,

Thanks for your quick answer. If it's not possible to get it with Icecast,
I'll take a look at the encoder side. I already know Oddcast can handle
that.

Cheers,

What kind of Icecast server are you trying to log into? v1 or v2?

Subject: [icecast] icecast2 on Fedora Core 1
Message-ID: <Sea1-F42lAPSakxJ5zH000057d5@hotmail.com>



I have just successfuly installed Icecast2 on Fedora. I had been trying to 
setup a Darkice>Icecast2 live streamer for our University radio station.  
WHen I was told I had to switch to Fedora. This caused some complications.

I am not asking a question here, simply sharing my experience on how I got 
it to install.

First, yum wouldn't upgrade, I got a CRC error when it was attempting to 
install python2.  So I installed apt and it was able to get past that point, 
now yum works fine.

Darkice installed fine w/ minimal dependencies.

Icecast redhat9 rpm was looking for libcom_err.so.3 which I COULD NOT FIND, 
turns out they didn't include it w/ Fedora, so I installed the Icecast 
src.rpm and now it's sitting in there nicely.

I'm a relative linux newb, been using it for 1 year but I'll be happy to 
share this experience w/ anyone attempting to get this running on Fedora. 
Hope this helps someone.

Ramon

Subject: [icecast] XML statistics?
Message-ID: <403D8998.2080005@hidayahonline.org>



The documentation for Icecast2 references a structured XML document 
containing statistics, such as the following from the docs:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<icestats>
        <client_connections>13</client_connections>
        <connections>14</connections>
        <source_connections>1</source_connections>
        <sources>1</sources>
        <source mount="/test.ogg">
                <artist></artist>
                <audio_info>ice-samplerate=32000;ice-bitrate=Quality -1;ice-channels=1</audio_info>
                <ice-bitrate>Quality -1</ice-bitrate>
                <ice-channels>1</ice-channels>
                <ice-samplerate>32000</ice-samplerate>
                <listeners>0</listeners>
                <public>0</public>
                <title></title>
                <type>Ogg Vorbis</type>
        </source>
</icestats>

At the following page:

http://www.icecast.org/files/icecast_docs/icecast2_stats.html

However, I cannot find such a file in my Icecast2 Win32 directory.  
Obviously, I'm using the Win32 build of Icecast2, and I wish to parse 
the XML file for display on the front page of my site.  Perhaps it is a 
configuration directive I have neglected?

Thanx in advance!

This stats file is a sort of "virtual file", created by icecast on demand. It 
doesn't live on the filesystem at any point.

You can request it from the server using http://server:port/admin/stats.xml

Can you suggest some text for the documentation that would clarify this?

Well, I still don't get an XML file when I visit that page on my 
server.  Granted, all the information that is in the file is there, 
however, I can't use PHP's nifty XML parsing tools to get that information.

To clarify the point, I would advise simply not using an XML file to 
represent the data, unless such a file is indeed attainable, whether 
actually existing on the file system or not.  If a file like this can be 
generated at a given URL or by a command to the server, that would also 
be neato, but if nothing like the really exists, I would advise 
re-writing the page without the XML at all.

All of this is assuming that I am understanding what you are saying - in 
that, whomever wrote the documentation simply used XML as a way to 
present the data.  I would suggest, rather, a screen-shot of the actual 
page, or what the actual page looks like.

Well, I'm not sure what's going wrong, then. It's meant to produce an XML 
file, and last time I checked it did produce an XML file. So either you're 
doing something wrong, or a bug has been introduced, and this doesn't 
currently work.

The file produced by the server IS an XML file.

you can try to runn ldconfig as root, maybe the ssl libs are not yet 
in the linker cache.

also, try ldd /wherever/icecast, to get a complete list of dependencies.

also, check whether you have a symbolic link from libssl.so.4 to the 
actual library (something like libssl.so.4.x.x probably).

OK...since Liveice doesn't support Icecast 2 I've set up an Icecast 1.3.12 
server.

<p>When I run Liveice I still get the problem:

-------------------------------------------------------
/local/liveice/temp.playlist

-------------------------------------------------------

where the client hangs.

<p>Looking at the Icecast logs shows:

<p>What's the problem with Liveice?

I think you are misunderstanding something. The stats XML is not accessed 
via a file on the file system (I.e. you shouldn't expect to see a physical 
stats.xml file).  I'm a bit confused by your statement that you don't get 
an XML file when you visit the link, but yet you also say that "all the 
information that is in the file is there"...what exactly do you see when 
you visit the http://server:port/admin/stats link ?
perhaps your confusion is that you dont actually need a XML file in order 
to parse it in PHP....You can retrieve it via a URL call.  I think you can 
do something like :

$handle = fopen("http://user:password at server:port/admin/stats", "r");

and then proceed to parse it using PHP's XML parsing routines...and I know 
there are a lot of people who actually do exactly this...

I'm SURE I am misunderstanding something.  What I get when I visit 
http://server:port/admin/stats....wait a minute, I just went to /stats, 
instead of /stats.xsl, and I see what you guys mean...:)

So there is a page "stats", which exists virtually, and a page 
"stats.xsl", that I kept linking to.  So, minus ".xsl", I get the pure 
generated XML file.

NOW I GET IT!  :)

Thanks a lot for all that commented, but I THINK there should be a 
clarification on THIS point.  Am I the only one to have been duped by 
this?  :)

I have no prob seeing stats with mozilla.  Icecast has come so far in a 
year.  Last year at this time there was no need for stats. hehe  We were 
just glad to get the stream out.

For further clarification, I missed that Mike had references 
"stats.xml", which I read, simply, as "stats.xsl".  I was only going to 
.xsl, before.  Both "/stats" and "/stats.xml" produce the appropriate 
XML file I have been seeking.  I am now successfully displaying 
Title/Artist (in this case, reciter, not really artist) on the front 
page of my site.

This XML stuff is really neat.  :)

And, in reference to Chup's comments, I didn't mean to be disrespectful 
in any way, i.e., "I PAID NOTHING FOR THIS SOFTWARE, SO WHY DOESN'T IT 
WORK LIKE THE $4,000 REALAUDIO SERVER!"  I hope I didn't come off that 
way.  ;)

Subject: [icecast] XML statistics on remote server
In-Reply-To: <403E21E1.3090802@hidayahonline.org>
Message-ID: <20040226180121.ED9B35329BB@motherfish-II.xiph.org>



Hi everybody,

I am wondering if it is possible to generate the XML/XSL files on a remote
server (status.xsl, status2.xsl or stats.xsl). I am trying to create a
player that parses status.xml every 20 seconds in order to show the
currently played song (my player doesn't support ICY). Here is the problem:
if 1000 users are currently connected, status.xsl will be requested 3000
times in a minute, what really increase my Icecast server's CPU. For this
reason, I would like to generate such an XML/XSL file on my web server which
is a lot more powerful. I know I can store an XSL file on my web server
(let's call it "statusWEB.xsl") that would parse the original status.xsl;
but it doesn't change anything because if I call statusWEB.xsl into my
player, it will parse status.xsl, what means my Icecast server will be
contacted still 3000 times per minute...

I guess I can solve this problem either by:
- Setting up Icecast to PUSH status.xsl on a remote web server (is that
possible??) maybe with php or FTP.
- Create a script that would AUTOMATICALLY download status.xsl from Icecast
and make a copy on the web server. This script shouldn't need to be called
by any listener. I mean, it should do its job automatically by itself
without needing to be requested (because if it is requested 3000 times per
minute, it doesn't change anything at the problem)

Any idea??

Thanks in advance for any help!

MAX

For further clarification, I missed that Mike had references 
"stats.xml", which I read, simply, as "stats.xsl".  I was only going to 
.xsl, before.  Both "/stats" and "/stats.xml" produce the appropriate 
XML file I have been seeking.  I am now successfully displaying 
Title/Artist (in this case, reciter, not really artist) on the front 
page of my site.

This XML stuff is really neat.  :)

what i did in this situation was dump the stats/status file to the local
server through a lynx --dump call from php ..  and then i also update a
sql table to reflect the changes so i can poll that instead ..

i've been trying to figure out how to create a "now
playing" on my website from the status.xsl or
stats.xml file for a while also.  so, i can really
appreciate the current dialogue.

here's my current hump.

i can view the status.xsl file at:

http://server:8000/status.xsl

however, when i go to:

http://server:8000/admin/stats

and am prompted for my password, i can not log in.

i tried the username as "source" and "admin", paired
with the password defined in the config file.

any suggestions?

thanks

jg

I'm not entirely sure what that problem is there, however why do you 
need a live encoder if you're just playing mp3s?  Use IceS 1 to play the 
mp3 files directly to the Icecast Server.

Hi:

Assuming you're using *nix:

For MP3 you can use darkice or streamtranscoder, or the oddcast plugin for
XMMS.  for ogg stream, all of the above plus ices2.

Well, I'm running a test of Qur'an radio on my site, HidayahOnline.org.

http://hidayahonline.org

There are links in the latest news, and also you can click on the title

I must have missed the point where Icecast is being used for this,
I only found static mp3/ogg files to download?

Hi all 
I'm runing Icecast2 on a Linux Box, feeded by IceS2
All are CVS version

My problems :

#1 - If I make tests on some mountpoints ( eg: /test.ogg ) and then if I 
remove the source ( because I finished the test ) , the mountpoint is still 
displayed in status.xsl . How to get rid of the mention of "dead" 
mountpoint ?

#2 - As well as you can see at http://stko.dyndns.info:9000/status.xsl , the 
bitrate is 0 . Why ? OR it is not the bitrate but the quality ?
because i'm using <quality>0</quality> in the iceS conf file ....

Thanks for your help

Hi:

The hostname as you define it in the config file will be used to generate
the m3u file.  So if it contains your 192.168 IP address, this won't work
from outside.  So I'd suggest changing it in your config file to your
external IP address.

Geoff.

Hi Jason,

 

I am not sure I understand your question, but just as Shoutcast, you can set
up a direct link to your stream in Icecast like:

http://youricecastserver:port/mountpoint.

For example: http://myradio:8000/live.ogg or http://myradio:8000/live.mp3.

 

If you don't like this kind of link, you can easily set up a script in
Javascript that would redirect the user to the stream. Let's say you call
this page "jump_to_stream.htm", the code would be:

 <html>

<head>

<title>Jump to my Radio</title>

<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">

</head>

<BODY
onLoad=javascript:window.location.href="http://myicecastserver:8000/mystream
.ogg">

</body>

</html>

 

 

Cheers,

 

MAX

Hi,

> what can you do for icecast so it can be a clickable url?
I haven't touched sc for at least 2 years (icecast2 is so damn good),
but I think I know what you want.
Icecast2 will automagically respond with an playlist file 
if e.g. a browser is pointed to http://abc.def/yourmount.ogg.m3u .
This means: appending ".m3u" to the mountpoint will give you an valid URL 
you can point a webbrowser to.

This won't work if the stream is not connected.
If you want several streams to appear in this playlistfile you'll have to create this file manually and copy it into the webroot of your Icecast2 Server. Same procedure if you don???t like the automatic filename.

Regards

Thomas

Hi everybody,

I have a theoretical question here.

A 128K stream is a 128 KiloBITS (NOT kiloBYTES) per second stream; am I
right? Is a 512k internet connection a 512 kiloBITS or 512 kiloBYTES
connection?

128 KiloBITS = 16 KiloBYTES (8 bits = 1 byte). I am wondering if a 512k
connection (upload and download) could THEORITICALLY handle 4 (512/128) or
32 (512/16) 128k streams?

I am confused because I often read that to calculate the potential number of
listeners with a given connection; you just divide the connection speed by
the stream bit rate... is it true? In this case, how is doing SomaFM to
handle 4000 listeners at 128k?? Do they have a 512 MB connection???

Thanks in advance,

MAX

Right.

Internet connections are also expressed in bits, or kilobits, not
kilobytes.  In this sense, calling it a 512k connection is actually wrong,
as this implies kilobytes, not kilobits.  But everyone seems to do it.

Unfortunately it's 4, not 32.

I guess they must.

Hi Goeff,

Thanks for your precisions. You wrote: "Internet connections are also
expressed in bits, or kilobits, not Kilobytes"; then I guess a connection of
1Mb is also 1 megaBITS and NOT megaBYTES. There is something I don't
understand; how are affording small radios that have up to 1000 concurrent
listeners a 128Mb connection? Is there any magical solution I am not aware
of?

Thanks for clarifying this topic!

MAX

If you look at the PLS file for SomaFM's "Goove Salad" channel you'll see :

------------------------------------------------
[playlist]
numberofentries=3
File1=http://64.236.34.97:80/stream/1018
Title1=SomaFM Presents: Groove Salad 128k (Feed #1)

Length2=-1
File3=http://server2.somafm.com:8032
Title3=SomaFM Presents: Groove Salad 128k (Feed #3)
Length3=-1
Version=2
-----------------------------------------------

So for this channel they have 3 possible feeds to spread the load over.  You 
could be clever and set up some sort of 'round-robbin' system to spread the 
load evenly...but I imagine that in this case it's deteremined by the number 
of connections per server - Feed #1 fills up to max of say 500 users...so 
next user is forwarded to Feed #2.

Yeah, I knew they had several servers for the same content, but the
financial cost of such internet connections still remain the same...

1st) I wouldnt call a radio with 1000 Listeners a small radio. That would be a rather impressive one. IIRC there was no Radio using Icecast that has more then 100 or 200 concurrent listeners.

2nd) One solution is sever housing or renting a ready server. Then you pay for the housing + Traffic exceeding the traffic included in the basic fee.

As for Icecast2 I'd call radio stations that have an _average_ of more then 20 listeners medium and radio stations with more than 50 very successful. (note this implies max listeners of 50/300 and down to 5/10 at night)

Just my 2cc

Regards

Thomas

PS: For listener Stats look at shoutcast.com - there you'll note an e^(1/x) distribution of listener counts. Only few have more than 100/200 listeners.

Hi Thomas, 

By "small radios" I was meaning "small companies". It's why I am impressed
they can afford so expensive connections...

for most stations that have this kind of listener capacity, they are 
getting bandwidth from AOL/Nullsoft.  Nullsoft had (may still have) a 
policy of offering free bandwith to stations they hand-picked.  They 
were tapping into the rather huge amount of bandwidth that AOL had, and 
thus could offer the kind of listener capacity you are seeing.  
Alternatively, many stations also operate on bandwith donations (people 
offering relays because they like the station)....I'd say most (if not 
all) stations that have high listener capacity are operating using one 
of these two mechanisms.

I don't think they still have this policy... since they don't reply to
my E-mails... maybe one day, who knows.... :)

I dont't think there are many stations who are able to pay for so much
bandwidth... in our case (Frequence3, see below), we rely on bw
donation... but it's quite hard to get some, because of the prices, so
we should go and try to use new broadcasting methods (multicast, or
oggvorbis)...

University Radio Chemnitz, Germany
We are broadcasting 32-40 hours a week for almost 2 years now.
Shows start again in the middle of April. We are using icecast for
live streaming and recording. Additionally, we use a multicast
streaming technology for the university network.

Hi Oddsock,

Like Clement, I am sure Nullsoft is still "offering" AOL's bandwidth since I
think Nullsoft is not part of AOL anymore. About the new broadcasting
methods, is the multicast technology already available? I have heard only
few providers are equipped with multicast enabled routers. What about p2p
streaming, is it really reliable? When I see Peercast's statistics, only few
stations have more than 10 listeners currently connected... Do you think p2p
streaming could support an "unlimited" number of listeners or is it only a
utopia? Anyway, I am not sure many listeners would be attracted by p2p
streaming until a reliable Applet is available. I mean, I know only few
users that are ready to install additional software to listen to online
music.
Does anyone know about such an open source Applet or ActiveX? I know
www.chaincast.com is selling such a solution but it's only targeted to
windows users because it's an ActiveX that streams WMA...

Cheers,

MAX
