Ah cool! I'll look into it. I wasn't aware of it, but am reading the
wikipedia article on it now. I'm always looking for tools for this kind of
stuff.
The automation software that is sending the audio to the encoder also
triggers scripts that talk directly to icecast to update the stream title
with current song and what not. It's beaufitul when it's all running.

Cool! Will check into those. Wasn't aware they exist. I've been using
Darkice and icecast forever, and recently moved to the hardware encoder
and icecast.
