Hello,

Does anybody know how I can configure icecast so it doesn't disconnect a
client which "has fallen too far behind".

We are using icecast2.01 streaming software for our church home-listening
system.
Our client we use a netgem-netbox.
We are streaming 25kbps MP3 on V90-56kbps modem connection

After around 45 minutes after starting the cleint the icecast error.log
reports:
[2004-11-27  20:25:58] DBUG format-mp3/format_mp3_write_buf_to_client Client
had recoverable error -1.

But the client still goes on playing for about 1 hour. Then it suddenly
stops the music.

The icecast errorlog reports:
[2004-11-27  21:33:18] DBUG format-mp3/format_mp3_write_buf_to_client Client
had recoverable error -1
[2004-11-27  21:33:18] DBUG source/source_main Client has fallen too far
behind, removing
[2004-11-27  21:33:18] DBUG source/source_main Client removed

I think Icecast masters this proces and removes the client isn't it ?

Many thanks in advance for suggestion which may solve this.

Henk
