[Icecast] icecast2.xml or darkice.cfg?

Hi there,

I’m a bit stuck, not sure if I should be configuring the icecast.xml, or if I’m doing something wrong in the darkice.cfg.

Works perfect streaming from its self, but as soon as I add a shoutcast stream, it breaks – commenting out the icecast section in darkice.cfg I have tried various combinations of configurations with no luck.

I am testing the possibilities in streaming to an on-line shoutcast server listen2myradio.com, I’ve input all the Ip’s, ports and passwords, yet, I still get an error – from reports on the web it is a user/password/ports problem? not sure why, would I have to configure the .xml for the server or relay to the on-line server settings? Last time I changed the xml, it broke it.

I’ve a workaround but it means using an XP machine with winamp, and the shoutcast plugin at the remote location, which connects to my icecast stream, then winamp streams that to the on-line server, it’s a bit of a pain to say the least.

I’ve icecast installed (with darkice) on a raspberry pi on the mobile network that I would like to boot up, then stream direct to the on-line servers without user input, so that I can stream live audio from a remote location.

Hoping you could be of assistance.

Regards
Alan
