Subject: [Icecast] EZStream and Cue Sheets
Message-ID: <fabqaat8qu3epv3nbbd514f1ltohdvll61@4ax.com>
I may have asked this before, but either I didn't, or I've
inadvertently discarded the message containing the answer, so pardon
please if this is a repeat.
Wil EZStream ever support cue sheets--a companion file containing
metadata information normally inserted into the stream from that
contained in the multimedia file itself? More play-out software is
including the ability to produce these files, so I'm thinking, hoping,
that the streamer companion to the Icecast stream server will at some
point be able to read these files as well. Any plans for this ability
to be included in future EZStream releases? If not, does anyone know
of any other EZStream-like software that can be used to stream files
through an Icecast server that handles cue sheet files in the manner
described above?

Hi Steve.
Liquidsoap supports CUE sheets as an input.

Looks like it's what I need. Do you know, is there a distro or repo
for Fedora? Or should I build it from source?

Hello,
Fedora and CentOS don't have any prebuilt packages in the standard repos.
Here are a few guides from the Liquidsoap community, specific to CentOS.

Looks like a lot of tedium. I'll give it a go on Red Hat, but not
before a full backup first.

In my experience liquidsoap is a lot easier to compile from source on
Debian or Ubuntu. Both platforms also have packages in the repos.
To experiment it might be easier to spin up a small local VM, or there's
always a digital oceans droplet, or EC2 micro instance.

I could, but I have this big old Fedora system just waiting for me to
get LS working on it, so I think I need to concentrate on making that
happen. If it's hard, difficult, tedious, inconvenient, then that's
what it is. I want the cue sheet capability some way somehow, so I'm
just going to have to knuckle down and buckle down and do it. Right?

Hi John,
I have used Muses in the past with partial success. I'm not sure I'd say
"runs on all devices" as it is a Flash-based player. I have been in
contact with the developer in the past and he said an HTML5 version
would be a good idea.
With my own Icecast server, when listening with Muses, for some reason
every 4-5 songs the stream would lock up. This doesn't occur when I use
the HTML5 <audio> tag, so it must have been something with Muses.
"Icecast Player" for Android ( see
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.voody.icecast.player&hl=en
) pulls the Xiph directory so if you are listed there, it should come
up. This, out of XIAA Live and a few others (including vlc for Android)
seems to perform the best, though the interface has a little to be
desired. And no version for iOS I'm pretty sure.
I am working on a project that will involve building a simple Icecast
player for Android. My aim will be to make it as stable as possible with
Vorbis and Opus streaming, including handling the fallback system,
sudden changes in quality or bitrate / channels / sample rate with
grace. I just need some help with funding the development, I'm exploring
options here. I'll also have a version for iOS developed as well.
Cheers,
Jordan

Sidenote:
We are rewriting the directory and will be offering an updated API in
the near future. Most likely JSON. Hopefully something much more
flexible than the biiiig XML file nowadays.
Also if you pull the XML file, especially on mobile devices, USE HTTP
COMPRESSION! (It gives you a factor 10 size reduction!)

So as that didn't help either, the IP ranges where this company hosts
servers and their domains have now been suspended on dir.xiph.org.
Sadly it looks like there is significant collateral delistings, but
maybe one of those stations will notice and contact us. That could help
get in touch with someone.
I've also sent an email to the abuse contact of the NOC of the
datacentre, but didn't get an answer.

Message-ID: <CAC8Of=R9tV_90JYxG57+b+7Y3Rnz_SieEMDurzeKHfcKD67=NQ@mail.gmail.com>
Hello,
I have liquidsoap streaming to icecast with url authentication and
everything works as it should. However, I enabled SSL in icecast to
enhance security and now the source doesn't connect.
In the error.log I see

This only happens if I enable SSL. Without it everything works fine.
I thought SSL had nothing to do with the source authentication. The
source password is correct. Is this normal ?
Thank you very much in advance.

Have you verified that the source supports SSL? I don't think there are
many that do.
If not you might need to wrap the source side of things into a "stunnel".

No I haven't because I thought SSL would be only enabled for the
listener auth, not source auth. So apparently if I want listener SSL
the source must support SSL also ? That sounds kind of unnecessary and
preferably should be an option. If this is not possible I guess
stunnel is the only way to go.
Thank you very much.

OK, then you should have two separate listener sockets.
One for SSL and one without.
Point the source client to the one without.
Advertize the one with SSL to listeners.

Subject: [Icecast] Cool Mic
Message-ID: <54B6D4BF.7080006@logicalnetworking.net>
I've been directing the development for a new Icecast 2.x source client
for Android called "Cool Mic". It's designed to be simple and elegant
with an easy to use interface. It uses the device's microphone to
broadcast live audio in Ogg Vorbis format.
It's come to the point in development where I'd like to ask for anyone
interested in helping give feedback. All core functionality is there to
stream to any Icecast 2.x server using Ogg Vorbis.
Features are:
+ Stream live from microphone
+ Ogg Vorbis streaming format
+ Configure custom Icecast source username + password
+ Configure samplerate (8000/11025/16000/22050/44100)
+ Configure number of audio channels (1/Mono or 2/Stereo)
+ Configure Vorbis quality level (-0.1 to 1.0)
+ Copy stream URL to clipboard for sharing (by tapping microphone image
in Home screen)
+ Device notification LED flashes rapidly while broadcasting
Project site, screenshots: http://coolmic.net
Anyone interested in checking out a prerelease version, please e-mail me
directly and I'll provide you with the latest .APK to install (it's not
in the Play Store yet and new builds are near daily). Any feedback at
all is very much appreciated!
Cheers,
Jordan Erickson

Hi unosonic,
Cool Mic's primary advantage to other source clients out there is that
it streams in the patent-free, high quality Ogg Vorbis format
(BroadcastMyself only supports MP3). We will be adding opus support in
the future as well.
Re: Feature requests: Re-connect sounds like the next feature that will
be added :) Thank you. I am fairly certain you can already use a wired
microphone/headset instead of device's internal mic (haven't tested
myself, don't have one ATM). A profile manager (save multiple icecast
configs) are already on the TO-DO list =) Level control and VU meter as
well.
Cheers,
Jordan

Please note that this is a limitation of HTTP and how it works with TLS.
Not a Icecast limitation. HTTP uses port separation for TLS/non-TLS
unlike e.g. SMTP wich uses a STARTTLS command to upgrade to TLS on the
fly if requested.

Jordan,
Really great app idea. I am definitely interested, and have been in something like this for a long time. Are you planning to make it available free, freemium, or paid? Do you plan to release source?
Opus support is definitely of interest for me as well because my interest is in broadcasting voice vs. more complicated content like music.
Also, I notice that the sample rates cap out at 44.1kHz, but Android internally defaults to 48kHz, which is also Opus's native (or, at least, most common) rate.

Hi Basil, I am going to make the app free to download and eventually
release it as an open source project, yes. Thank you for the hint on the
48kHz. I'm planning on making an unofficial download link for the .APK
on coolmic.net as soon as I get a couple of annoying bugs squashed, I'll
keep the list updated.
Cheers,
Jordan

that's good news!
another feature request: configurable metadata.
what i'd find nice, maybe way to specific, is a possibility to optionally
send geodata to an url, e.g. for walking performances etc., just an idea.
let us know when you publish the link to the apk

Hi,
In our design of Icecast2, our multiple sources will stream their high quality audio via a dedicated audio encoder (not a computer):
Live audio > L+R microphone > pre amplifier > audio encoder > Icecast2 VPS
So far I have a shortlist of 4 possible brands of audio encoders: Sonifex PS-SEND, Barix Instreamer, Bric-Link, Outcaster OC100.
All have their pro's and cons. My main requirements are Mount specific authentication (username & password) & Balanced XLR analogue input. A very hard to get combination, as most encoders only support the Icecast2 Source authentication (this password is applicable for all mounts).
Only the Outcaster also supports the Mount specific authentication, but has no balanced analogue audio input.
Is anyone having positive or negative experience with these or other brands, or perhaps even built one yourself (Raspberry..)?
Thanks and best regards,
Maarten

well, sort of, with a PI, Ices2 as a client, and an USB audio device as
input, e.g. a "class compliant" audio recoder like Olympus LS5, Zoom H2
etc., but also a little mixer like the Behringer Xenyx 302 USB.
The problem i've encountered is with USB class1 devices, i.e. so called
"full speed" USB (which is the slowest one). It requires to force the
PI into USB1.1 at boot time, which affects the network stack and probably
others. The result is not satisfying, distorted sound and drops. All fine
with USB2.0, but haven't found a suitable pre-amp yet. I'd love to try
with a Sound Devices Mix Pre (battery driven, 2 HQ mic inputs, USB1.1 + 2.0
compliant, according to the specs). the price tag has prevented that
experience so far... ;)
Power supply is an issue, esp. when you need a mobile unit. Should be stable
and not too weak. Overall it's nice with the PI, Ices2 is stable and you can
setup your scripts for link control, remote operation, login per ssh to
control level via ALSA mixer etc. pp.
bests, u.

checked the specs. only 1 mic-in? form factor is great, but i desperately
need stereo mic-in with plugin power, e.g. for powering two electrets...
Griffin imic usb card does that, but with the USB1.1 issues... anyway, that's

Shouldn't USB2.0 ports be able to connect to USB1.1 devices without
changing the entire stack to USB1?
Can the Xenyx USB mixers be attached as USB2.0 and do these work reliably?
I'm looking into creating a setup like that with a 5-input Xenyx mixer if
this works..
Best,
Maarten

according to my experience, no. here are my personal notes when i'd set it

the Xenyx 302 USB is 1.1 and didn't work reliable for me. Maybe that can be
tweaked so that it works, but i wasn't able... no idea how the other Xenyx'
work. My conclusion was that 2.0 devices are fine, 1.1 not because of the Pi's
internal mess... but there may be workarounds, see:

Out of curiosity do any of those support anything else than MP3?
I'd expect to use a more state of the art codec at high quality settings
for an "intake" stream. MP3 even at very high bit-rates has its known
problems.

You're confusing two concepts here:
- The global source password
- authentication using "source" as the user name
It is quite unfortunate that many a software (or in this case hardware)
doesn't support username/password, but hardcodes the username to
"source". This does NOT however stop you from having a different source
password per mountpoint. Just don't define a username or set username to
"source" in the <mount> definition.

Personally I'd outright discard the RPi, due to its many design
deficiencies and low performance.
Coincidentally I've been recently looking into various aspects of a
hardware based Icecast source, preferably open source hardware (OSHW
conformant, rpi isn't), native Ethernet (USB based sucks), decent audio
codec, preferably not just Line-in but also balanced inputs.
I have some devices based on the Qualcomm Atheros AR9331 that use a
decent Wolfson 8918 audio codec. While the codec is capable of also
balanced and DMic inputs, sadly as such the devices are configured as
output only.
I also have, for an unrelated project, an AllWinner A10s based Olinuxino
board on my desk. It at least has a line level input and native ethernet.
I'm not particularly fond of USB sound cards, at least the cheaper ones,
as their frequency reference is often horrible and on a professional
setup the last thing you want is for your stream to run away after an
hour or two.
I need to do some more experimenting, but might consider prototyping a
open hardware device that would fulfill all those requirements, but fit
a budget. A likely target would be one of the recent open hardware
boards that has native LAN and could attach a good, linux supported,
audio codec over I?S or similar.

Hi,
I managed to get my hand on a Xenyx x2222usb at a friend's, so I took the
opportunity to do some testing with it.
Pi model B, one of the more recent editions (I also had an older one from
just after they were introduced and that one had trouble rebooting when
attaching/detaching network so I ditched that one). Two usb onboard.
Xenyx x2222usb has the same usb chip 08bb:2902 Texas Instruments Japan
PCM2902 Audio Codec

usbcore: registered new interface driver snd-usb-audio
Started with a 3.10.25+ kernel that happened to be on an earlier install.
When doing mpg123 -D hw:1,0 something.mp3 it spammed lost of
Jan 22 20:33:11 testpi kernel: [2316881.058933] delay: estimated 0, actual 132
Jan 22 20:33:11 testpi kernel: [2316881.066876] delay: estimated 0, actual 133
etc etc in the logs and playback was choppy.
Didnt even bother recording, but went for an apt-get update / dist-upgrade
which installed (among others) a new rpi-update, and running rpi-update
gave me kernel 3.18.3+
After a reboot, playback worked like a charm, no pops, clicks, ticks, just
perfect playback. No messages in syslog either.
Then I tried: arecord -D hw:1 -f cd testrec.wav
But as soon as something other than silence was sent to the device, lines
like these started to show up:
Jan 22 23:17:48 testpi kernel: [ 9190.974009] Transfer to device 4 endpoint 0x4 frame 1697 failed - FIQ reported NYET. Data may have been lost.

Jan 22 23:17:52 testpi kernel: [ 9194.653508] Transfer to device 4 endpoint 0x4 frame 1280 failed - FIQ reported NYET. Data may have been lost.
And recordings were choppy, clicking etc.
This is all running the Pi at normal setup with USB2 enabled and Xenyx USB
directly connected to the Pi with a 1.5m usb A-B cable.
Then, I connected a usb hub to the Pi and then the Xenyx USB to the hub.
Unpowered el cheapo hub. Tried another al cheapo crappy usb2 hub that
never worked when connecting it between a UMTS dongle and a PC (dongle
just would get up and running, probably power issues). Both did the magic
trick: recording now works like a charm.
Once did I see an "overrun!!! (at least 1055.346 ms long)" but that was
probably something from arecord not being able to save the recording to SD
card fast enough because I was doing other stuff with the SD card at the
same time. Nothing in syslog, just output from arecord / alsa lib.
So, conclusion: PCM2902 works with pi for both playback and recording, as
long as you connect it through some random USB2 hub. Doesn't draw much
power, but maybe you need a hub's extra capacitors to prevent spikes from
causing problems at the pi. Of course, I suppose using it through a
powered hub such as the PiHUB should also work.
The only thing I kinda missed was a recording level control. The only
control alsamixer is giving me, is the pcm playback level. So you'd have
to make sure the audio you send to it is somehow sane.
Best,
Maarten

sure? alsamixer has a switch where you can toggle between connected soundcards.
pcm is default. try alsamixer -c 1 (second card)

Yes, switching is also possible using F6 function key inside alsamixer.
Doesn't help.
Just did a quick search and found the chip's datasheet: it does have
mute and volume control (variable attenuation) on DAC (playback), but
not on ADC (recording). Very bare-bones chip, which is mostly OK if you
don't need e.g. a teleconferencing application doing automatic input gain
control based on recorded audio level.

Thanks! Just tried it. Works well once I got through some wonkiness with my own server and forgetting its URL. First issue for me is that the back button on the phone takes you out of the app completely from any screen within the app. I had the expectation that it would just navigate the pages back.
Relatedly, where would you like feedback and bud reports to go?

works ;)
ideas and observations:
- show also bitrates insted of ogg quality settings only
- maybe a more consistent handling of the back button, i.e. when in menus
- seems i can't stop broadcasting ... ? "Stop Broadcast" doesn't do anything,
only "Quit" stops it.
- an reliable indicator that we're broadcasting (the red flashing appeared
only once, now it shows a text "connected to server", but no other sign)
i've tested on a Samsung S2, on 4.1.2, so far from latest & greatest...

Message-ID: <20150125152757.e78c576f543e92ca68168a2d@mimar.rs>
Hi,
I am using icecast2-2.4.1,1 on FreeBSD 10.1-RELEASE. In order to be able
to stream on port 80, I have redirected port 8080 to port 80 by means of
firewall on icecast server itself (packet filter):
rdr pass on $ext_if proto tcp to port 80 -> 127.0.0.1 port 8000
The only thing that bothers me is the fact that autogenerated playlist
files (m3u, xspf and vclt) in web interface direct to port 8000.
Is there a way to change them so they point to desired port instead to
the port specified in configuration file?
Regards,

Sorry to say, but "you're holding it wrong", also we just don't support
this.
The proper way to do this is to configure <security><changeowner> and
start Icecast as root. It will then bind to port 80 and drop itself to
the restricted user/group provided.
Another option is to remove the restriction of being root for binding to
ports below 1024 or giving the Icecast user necessary privileges to do so.
Please refer to your system's best practices to choose the right option.
I'm not an *BSD expert.
Cheers

That might be an option far down the road. Currently it still needs much
more work. It's essentially a concept/idea at this stage.
Also ideally this will be easy to produce, even in quantities of ONE, so
that many people will be able to reproduce it on a minimal budget.
Possibly only the PCB being a bit more involved, but even that can be
done through itead or OSHPark.
For those who want one as a kit or fully assembled doing a run through
e.g. kickstarter or some other platform would be an option. That way
also most disappointing delays and such can be avoided.

I agree this setup is "unusual", and I understand you don't support it,
but I do not see what makes it "wrong".

I am starting icecast as root (by rc script), and I was already changing
owner to nobody/nogroup as suggested in example config file. So all I
needed to do was to change the port.

It's actually quite common. After all port 80 is _the_ IANA port for
HTTP (and so is 443 for HTTPS, which we support too).

It was a joke in reference to:
http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=You%27re+Holding+It+Wrong
Sort of self-criticizing, as there are a couple of issues with how we
are handling ports and URLs in the generated playlists. This will likely
improve once we get around to rewriting our HTTP engine to support HTTP
1.1, which is a target for the feature release following after 2.5, so
likely in about 2 years. No promise if we will work 100% on port
redirects, that's always a problem to support.
Also we could document the case of port 80/443 explicitly.

Thank you all so far for the feedback. I've forwarded this to my dev

that doesn't seem to spammy. My goal is for Cool Mic to be the most
stable and functional (and open source!) Android source client for
Icecast that supports open codecs.
Cheers,
Jordan

Hey, I'm new here... I guess it will take some time for me to get into
the mood :)
Thank you for thorough explanation.

Hello,
Is there any way to disable stdout redirecting behaviour on the part of Libshout, so that printf and friends still work after a call to shout_open?
Thanks,
Jordan.

Hi Thomas,
As per your question "Out of curiosity do any of those support anything else than MP3?" - - > answer is yes.
See attached link an overview of 6 hardware audio encoders (Link to pmg file via WeTransfer http://we.tl/w0H6HJsxLd ).
All offer various output formats, not all matching ICECAST input requirements. Not all offer an authentication on mount level. Price ranges from EURO 350 to 1.000.
I like your idea of OSHW. But for now I am looking for the best alternative available (focus on max audio quality, medium to low budget) in the market as is.
Thanks and best regards, Maarten

Out of curiosity do any of those suppoSHWrt anything else than MP3?
I'd expect to use a more state of the art codec at high quality settings
for an "intake" stream. MP3 even at very high bit-rates has its known
problems.

You're confusing two concepts here:
- The global source password
- authentication using "source" as the user name
It is quite unfortunate that many a software (or in this case hardware)
doesn't support username/password, but hardcodes the username to
"source". This does NOT however stop you from having a different source
password per mountpoint. Just don't define a username or set username to
"source" in the <mount> definition.

Personally I'd outright discard the RPi, due to its many design
deficiencies and low performance.
Coincidentally I've been recently looking into various aspects of a
hardware based Icecast source, preferably open source hardware (OSHW
conformant, rpi isn't), native Ethernet (USB based sucks), decent audio
codec, preferably not just Line-in but also balanced inputs.
I have some devices based on the Qualcomm Atheros AR9331 that use a
decent Wolfson 8918 audio codec. While the codec is capable of also
balanced and DMic inputs, sadly as such the devices are configured as
output only.
I also have, for an unrelated project, an AllWinner A10s based Olinuxino
board on my desk. It at least has a line level input and native ethernet.
I'm not particularly fond of USB sound cards, at least the cheaper ones,
as their frequency reference is often horrible and on a professional
setup the last thing you want is for your stream to run away after an
hour or two.
I need to do some more experimenting, but might consider prototyping a
open hardware device that would fulfill all those requirements, but fit
a budget. A likely target would be one of the recent open hardware
boards that has native LAN and could attach a good, linux supported,
audio codec over I?S or similar.
Cheers
Thomas
