With Icecast the basic rule is: - you run out of bandwidth before anything else The rest is fairly simple bandwidth math. Just keep in mind: 128kbit/s = 16kbytes/s Also take into account TCP/IP/Ethernet overhead. I don't have a hard number at hand, but I'd just multiply stream bandwidth by 1.1 or 1.2. I'm a bit surprised at the low monthly data volume of 6GB you state, as that is unusually low for a hosting arrangement nowadays and translates to 5500 broadcasting minutes (about 0.13 average listeners 24/7/30). Or did you mean something else than hosting an Icecast server?

I mean 6,000GB sorry, but while your calculation answers the question, I dont see the math to it. I need a basic calculation that I can figure generally for different configs. like how do you get broadcasting minutes figure? Maybe you can answer this. I have been mucking around with encoding since 1999, and we were broadcasting video streams. I do not remember figuring each connection to the broadcast into bandwidth needs, as its a broadcasted stream, a single file played in a single instance, the only requirements were that the streams bandwidth and the users bandwidth were important to the playback quality, 128k video stream required a user to have that at minimum to be able to watch it correctly, like you said 128 + "overhead". Why now do you figure in also each connection? As I see it the server is just serving a single 128k up stream and taking up 128k up stream bandwidth, the user end connection is a mute point as they are downloading it using their bandwidth. Seems to me hosting services are double dipping charging the server end the up and down of the single 128k stream to make sense of the per user, or to me its not a true broadcast, its a truely separate instance of the stream to any connection. Maybe shed some light on this if possible.

If not someone should certainly add it! Depending which target operating system you use there are all sorts of software packages available, including commercial ones like by Greg's company. > Still a bit unclear on the method to calculate a 128k stream with > 6,000 GB available bandwidth over 30 days to give an estimated average > user connections possible. The math is really simple, you just need to make sure you don't confuse bits and bytes. 128kbit/s = 15.625 kbyte/s we multiply by 1.2 to account for any overhead: 18.75kbyte/s So each listener consumes 18.75kbyte/s while connected. maxVolume = 6000GByte = 6144000MByte = 6291456000KByte maxVolume/bandwidth = 335544320s = 5592405.3min = 93206.76h = 3883.61d = 129.45mo So you can feed 129.45 months of streaming from 6000GB. Obviously that also means you can have an average of 129.45 listeners per month, before you exceed your Volume limit. Which conversely would mean egress traffic of about 16-17MBit/s 24/7. How much a station really needs depends alone on how popular they are. If larger Volume costs extra (it usually doesn't if you rent a whole server), then starting small and seeing how you fare is probably a good approach. One thing to note though. This does NOT mean that the station should never exceed 130 listeners, actually I'd expect it to have spikes around at least 300-500 listeners before you hit an AVERAGE of 130. Cheers Thomas PS: I've oversimplified, especially on the overhead, but the ballpark should be close enough. > On Fri, Jul 5, 2013 at 11:05 AM, Greg Ogonowski wrote: >> Scott- >> You are describing UDP multicast in your example.

Assume 128kbps becomes 20kbyte/s after TCP encapsulation. A back-of-the envelope calculation would be (6000 [GB] * (1024 * 1024)) / (20 [kbyte/s] * (365 * 86400 / 12) ) = 119.7 users, continually streaming 24/7 for the whole month.

That's a bit contradictory. Ogg/Vorbis is audio, while MJPEG is pure video. Anyhow, I'd take a look at both avconv and gstreamer.

The listener data is written to the access.log. There are some log file analyers that can handle the extra data (compared to 'classical http access logs'). I never had the need to touch one of them so I can not tell you names. If you really want to build something yourself (e.g. to well integrate into your existing system) you just need to parse the logfile. -- Philipp. (Rah of PH2) -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Between broadcasts it uses a fallback mp3, which loops. During broadcasts it relays from a local Icecast server that I broadcast to (config also below). I am aiming for approx 30-45 seconds buffering, as the connection from public to local icecast server is 'less than ideal'. The set up is working fine except that if someone connects just before the broadcast starts, then it appears the fallback file (approx 2.5min) is queued multiple times, and the delay I've seen can be between 8 and 30 minutes. If they connect just after then the they listen approx 30-45 seconds behind real time as intended. I'd really appreciate any pointers on where to look into this: is it an Icecast issue (I cant see why) or a player issue (harder to control, although I can recommend). Any advice much appreciated.

The reason for this is that Icecast will send a static MP3 file as quickly as it can, rather than at the correct bitrate. Whether or not it should do something intelligent, possibly by having a configured bit rate, is something for debate I guess. The way to get what you want is to have something streaming your backup content. Something like EZStream would do nicely. Cheers, Geoff.

I think we do some minimal rate limiting, but it's nowhere near what would be necessary. Fallback to file is 'lazy' and discouraged for professional installations anyway. > The way to get what you want is to have something streaming your backup > content. Something like EZStream would do nicely. Exactly. And if you just loop a couple of files without re-encoding them, but send them as is, it doesn't take up any noticeable CPU cycles.

No idea about that particular codec, but in general I do know that people are running source clients like ices2 and darkice on their rpi and other embedded Linux devices. > if you are succeed or have an idea about it, please share... It really should be as easy as 'apt-get install ices2' or 'darkice' if you run that debian variety for the rpi. Cheers Thomas PS: please don't send HTML emails to the mailing list, thanks.

I have version v2.0.0 b1023 installed on a QNAP NAS. The station is working fine (http://digitalcarnage.myqnapcloud.com:8002/stream). However I do have a few questions. How do I submit my station to the Icecast directory? I may have got it wrong but I understood that the application submitted it automatically? Or do I have to submit/create and XML file etc. The MP3 link works fine at http://digitalcarnage.myqnapcloud.com:8002 but the XSPF link returns: "Could not parse XSLT file" What have I missed here. I have had a good look around for this one so I'm guessing its a "no" but can you have multiple streams? through the same port/server? Finally, and this is finally. I'd like to get a better understanding of Relay Servers and how they are used in IceStation and also "Mounts" What they are and how to use them.
