I don't know if mpeg4 has been tried. The likes of libshout and icecast
could pass mpeg4 straight through but without timing so it would run far too
quickly for streaming.

However with some modifications to something like oggfwd or ezstream you
could get a feed from mplayer to do the timing. Needs checking up on though
to make sure it works well enough.

Compared to ices2, ezstream is very simple - easy to set up, easy to use.
It's also much, much less featureful. ezstream supports some formats that
ices2 doesn't, though. It also runs on some platforms that ices2 doesn't
(notably windows).

If you really need mp3, you might also consider ices0, which, despite the
similar name and low version number, is a seperate program from ices2, and
is very stable and usable.

Hi,

Excuse my ignorance, I'm primarily a LInux user and don't have a Windows
install on any hardware that's actually working at the moment.

Is it possible to use aoTuV B3 with Oddcast?  Is this simply a matter of
replacing a DLL?  If so, are there any precompiled DLLs anywhere, or is
anyone with the appropriate tools prepared to cook one up for me?  I have
people who are probably interested in trying it.

Any help anyone can provide will be most useful.

Geoff.

The current OddcastV3 install comes with the aoTuV b3 DLLs, and allows you
to optionally install them.  And yes, they are just a simple replacement.
These DLLs have (among other things) a quality setting of -2 that triggers a
special low-bitrate mode that people say is quite good....for low-bitrate
that is..

Hello folks!!!

I'm happy, i do it! I've broadcast mpeg4 and i choose following method
ffmpeg2theora -v 10 -a -1  -x 384 -y 256 /mnt/hdc/movie/godsend.avi -o
/dev/stdout | oggfwd xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 8899 hackme /video.ogg But
ffmpeg2theora have very big CPU load average and if use source package of
oggfwd and compile, oggfwd crashes with Segmentation fault, but if you
download binary of oggfwd it works correct. Big thanks ALL!

Hello,
One question about cpu and ram.
I'have a pentium IV with 512 Mb of Ram, running icecast2 in debian.
If I supose that i have unlimited *bandwidth,* how many streams support at
the same time?
I want to stream ogg audio at 32 kbps.

Thanks in advanced,

Raul.

yes, it is substantial. but afaik not much optimization work has gone into
theora yet, so there's hope.

i heard some guys on irc mention theora-mmx, which makes use of the
pentium's simd instructions. it's somewhere in svn.xiph.org. haven't tried
it myself yet, but it might reduce the load somewhat.
