Subject: [Icecast] Regarding fallback mount points.
Message-ID: <68ADC83A-E99C-4F86-B829-54DBA2952ADA@q.com>
Hi all. I finally got my automating stream working. now, I do have a question for you all regarding fallback mount. I believe I have them setup correctly. but what I would want to do is when I go to http://kjscradio.com:8000/stream.mp3.m3u, I would like it to fallback to the mount point that I have setup for my automation stream. Then, when a source drops the connection from the /stream.mp3.m3u mount I would like it to go to my automation mount for it. My .xml file config is below.

a few comments:
1. It's not a good idea to publish your passwords. If these are the
passwords you use, I highly recommend changing them.
2. I would either comment out or remove the auth stuff if you're not
using it, as it may make things not work because the auth fails.
3. You usually wouldn't want streams that fallback to each other and i've
not tried it. It could very well confuse Icecast, particularly if neither
stream is on at any given time.
Having said all this, does it work?

Okay, the mount for my automation still works. But, not for the fallback mount I have setup I don't know what I'm doing wrong. If you want to check it out, go to, http://kjscradio.com:8000/stream.mp3.m3u

Subject: [Icecast] Icecast and ezstream?
Message-ID:
hello all, I?m not sure if I could discuss this here in this mailing list, but it has to do with ezstream with ice cast. so, I do have ezstream set to read from a config file which reads from a .m3u play list that I have setup for my automation. Now, here?s a question. what if I wanted to add more songs to the play list and when I do that, I would like to have the songs to be added to the play list during in the middle of the reading of the play list? not when it loops again and re reads it. How would I go about doing this? and what would be the best way? I don?t have to reload and have it kill the automation process of the stream at all. I would like it to have it seamlessly add the songs to the playlist and read from the point in the play list. Thanks. all.

Subject: [Icecast] [Icecast-dev] Icecast 2.4 beta4 release
Message-ID: <52E14603.2080303@ruecker.fi>
This is to announce the release of Icecast 2.4 beta4 (aka 2.3.99.4).
We've landed an important bug fix and we're looking forward to testing
and feedback. As this is a beta release please discuss it on the
icecast-dev mailing list.
(Please do NOT cross-post to both lists, do NOT reply to the icecast
mailing list, PLEASE reply to icecast-dev at xiph.org only).
* Fixed a memory leak. Lost headers of stream because of wrong ref
counter in associated refbuf objects.
* avoid memory leak in _parse_mount() when "type"-attribute is set
* Completed HTTP PUT support, send 100-continue-header,
if client requests it. We need to adhere to HTTP1.1 here.
* Updated web interface to be more XHTML compliant.
* corrected Date-header format to conform the standard (see RFC1123).
Thanks to cato for reporting.
* Added a favicon to the web-root content
* We now split handling of command line arguments into two parts.
Only the critical part of getting the config file is done first (and
-v as it prevents startup). The rest (only -b) is deferred.
It allows us to log error messages to stderr even if the -b argument
is passed. This is mainly for the case where the logfile or TCP port
can't be opened.
Please test this and also all other new 2.4 features and report to the
dev mailing list with your observations and findings.
Source tar ball:
http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast-2.4-beta4.tar.gz
Windows build:
http://downloads.xiph.org/releases/icecast/icecast_win32_2.4_beta4.zip
Also there are experimental packages for many distributions built on OBS:
https://build.opensuse.org/package/show?package=icecast&project=home%3Adm8tbr
The package repositories are here:
http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/dm8tbr/
Those are not intended for production use and _none_ of the packages
have been tested, so if it scares your cat, bites your dog and blows up
- enjoy the fireworks.
Cheers
Thomas

Icecast has the concept of "mount points". Please refer to the
documentation for details.

There is no reason to run multiple ports. Icecast is perfectly capable
to accept and serve multiple streams on one TCP port.

Subject: [Icecast] Possible SYN flooding on port 8000. Sending cookies
Message-ID:
Hi
*Problem *- I'm running Icecast in a VM container on OpenVZ. Syslog on the
hardware node (HN) shows these error messages:

The site below advises:
"This message can come a from a SYN
DDOS,
but in our case it was because of the amount of new connections one of our
application was receiving. The syslog message is emitted when the SYN
backlog of a socket is full."
http://blog.dubbelboer.com/2012/04/09/syn-cookies.html
Furthermore:
"While you see SYN flood warnings in logs not being really flooded,
your server is seriously misconfigured."
*A potential fix* - increase the net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog kernel
parameter. Or tune some more parameters like tcp_synack_retries and
netdev_max_backlog
*My question *- to fix this SYN flooding problem should I modify
net.ipv4.tcp_max_syn_backlog, net.core.somaxconn and the backlog size
passed to the listen() syscall or might there be an alternative easier fix
such as installing
2.3.3-kh9
?
Potentially relevant information:
[root at VM ~]# icecast -v
Icecast 2.3.3
[root at HN ~]# uname -r
2.6.32-042stab057.1
[root at HN ~]# cat /etc/redhat-release
CentOS release 6.3 (Final)
In advance, many thanks for your advice and best regards

Sounds like a (mis-)configuration at OS level. Nothing you can do in
Icecast.

Icecast doesn't contain any encoders, at all. It just passes through
streams and deals with them on a container level (Ogg, WebM/MKV).

Are you just trying to make sure support for WebM is enabled? It's built
in and doesn't need to be enabled at build-time as we don't depend on
external libraries for that.
Also please note, that there are packages for most distributions on OBS,
see release announcement.

ok, thanks, I was mixing gstreamer language with icecast language :-)

Have you tried B.U.T.T. yet?
Or Edcast (in one of its revived forms)?
http://icecast.org/3rdparty.php
Both are capable to stream to Icecast and set the public bit.
Or what is your actual problem? The subject of your email indicates some
possibly not source client related problem.
