Streaming to a shoutcast server..

I am in need of a simple program that will allow me to stream from JACK to a shoutcast server. I THINK that icecast will do it, but i have not been able to figure out how. VLC also seems like it will work, but i have not been able to figure it out either.
does anyone have any suggestions?
(or an icecast tutorial??)
thanks

You could write a wikipage from it, if it's not very very simple.

Play streaming audio from Shoutcast

Hello,
I am new to Flex. I am trying to create a simple desktop app to play a live radio stream from a shoutcast server. I cannot get it to play. I am now wondering if it is even possible using the Flex/Air platform. Here is my code:
package
import flash.display.Sprite;
import flash.display.StageAlign;
import flash.display.StageScaleMode;
import org.osmf.elements.AudioElement;
import org.osmf.media.MediaPlayerSprite;
import org.osmf.net.StreamType;
import org.osmf.net.StreamingURLResource;
public class StreamingURLResourceExample extends Sprite{
public function StreamingURLResourceExample(){
super();
stage.scaleMode = StageScaleMode.NO_SCALE;
stage.align = StageAlign.TOP_LEFT;
var mediaPlayerSprite:MediaPlayerSprite = new MediaPlayerSprite();
var audioElement:AudioElement = new AudioElement();
audioElement.resource =
new StreamingURLResource("http://38.96.148.91:4152", StreamType.LIVE);
addChild(mediaPlayerSprite);
mediaPlayerSprite.media = audioElement;

In a nutshell reflectors are redirects. Basically, what you see as requests are temporary dummy things and stream is actually coming from different address. Sometimes reflectors are xml files. This is one of the ways companies protect their assets from hacking.
I cannot find anything on shoutcast that allows access by third party player. I suspect it may not be possible. At least with Flash. Even if you can access currently invoked stream, next time you attempt it - it may fail. Try to stream video from YouTube - you can right after you got the address but after that server is switched and you cannot stream it any longer.

Connecting to shoutcast server

Im trying to make a program that can connect to a shoutcast server but am currently running into issues in doing this. I can see the packets that itunes sends out to connect to one of the shoutcast stations on there, but have been unable to emulate this from my own code.
Here is the packet that seemingly starts the communications between itunes and their server as shown by ethereal:
GET http://205.188.234.38:8018/ HTTP/1.0
Accecpt: */*
Cache-Control: no-cache
User-Agent: iTunes/4.6 (Windows; N)
Host: 205.188.234.38:8018
Pragma: no-cache
This results in an ICY 200 OK from the shoutcast server and i connect.
Unfortunatly, I cant emulate the sending of that packet using URLConnection and InputStream/OutputStream (InputStream seems to send the GET field and OutputStream seems to send the POST).
I can connect fine to say google.com and, but in the first part where it says "GET http://205.188.234.38:8018/ HTTP/1.0" when iTunes connects, connecting to google just has "GET / HTTP/1.1"
I setup a shotcast server on my own computer, but unfortunatly i cant see packets being sent, but i get a reply from the shoutcastserver saying "invalid password".
Some help/advice would be appreciated as how to proceede on this.
Thanks,
CoW

Sorry, just to clarify:
"connecting to google just has "GET / HTTP/1.1""
meaning i set the URL to connect to google, it doesnt send anything with GET/POST except for a TCP packet to the shoutcast server

Embed streaming video from FlashMedia Server 2 in a Captivate Course

I am trying to add streaming video from FlashMedia Server 2
Developer Edition in a Captivate 3.0 course. The streaming server
is working fine and I can stream video from a Flash 8.0 file. The
problem seems to be in Captivate 3.0 because the video will not
display in a Captivate swf file. The html and swf file resides on
the web server therefore it cannot not be a security issue. When I
try to play the Captivate file; it does make connection to the
media server however the flv file will not stream. The Bytes
Out(Bytes to the client) number stops incrementing after a 1,000
bytes. Once you close the browser then the connection to the media
server is lost. However if I insert a .fla file from Flash
8.0(which will connect to the streaming server and play) and
publish it in the Captivate project; It will connect to the server
and playback the audio but not the video. I turned on and off
hardware acceleration on my video card thinking that was the
problem. I would appreciate any help on this. Once I get this to
work I can justify purchasing the full version of the Flash Media
Server.

I think this isn't really an InDesign issue at all. It sounds like an Acrobat issue.
First, you haven't said what version of Acrobat you're using. I'm assuming Acrobat X Pro?
I've used this with a friend's Flash Media Server so I know it works. What version of Flash server do you have installed?
I the link you provide I see a spaceband after the word "test" in the path. Could that be a problem?
Other than that, it appears that you're following the requirements listed in the Help file for Acrobat X Pro.
If you have further problems, you might post this on the Acrobat User Forum.

Is it normal for my DL speeds to drop in half while streaming video off media server with E4200v2?

I am on a 3MB plan and i noticed DL speeds drop quite a bit while the streaming from the media server? is this normal?
Also my Linsys ATA is on a static IP and when I review in Devices it will show offline though someone could be talking on the phone. What would be causing this?
Kind of new at all this stuff. Thanks in advance.

There's a whole bunch of articles on the internet on DSL PPPoE MTU. If you google "DSL MTU 1492", you'll probably find a lot better explanations than what I can give you.......
If you want to run the test in the link below, you'll find that 1464 is the mtu without fragmentation. Then you add 28......and you'll get 1492.

Trying to set up my video site to stream from the "fms server." Any Idea?

I am trying to set up my video site to stream from the “fms server” and the instruction stated that I should create my own new folder in the application directory on the “fms server,” and I have created my directory, which I called “brigma_streams”, and I have copied files from {FMS-Install-Dir}/ sample/Application/vod to my new folder.
I also configured the vod service in the FMS-Install-Dir/applications/(in my-New-Folder/Application.xml file).
Here is the sample of my configuration below:
<Streams>/;${BRIGMA_STREAMS_VOD_COMMON_DIR}</Streams>
<Streams>/;${BRIGMA_STREAMS_VOD_DIR}</Streams>
And here is an example on how I modified to my XML streaming:
src="rtmp://localhost/inetpub/wwwroot/brigma_streams/SanfordNSons768K_002.f4v"
thumb="thumbs/SanfordNSons768K_002.jpg" />
After all these configuration and modification it still didn’t work at all when I tested the video in streaming mode. Could some one please take a look at and point me to the right direction. Thanks in advance.

Hi,
After adding the configurations to the Application.xml file, you also need to add those entries to the FMS.ini file (in the conf folder). Please add those entries (similar to VOD_ entries) if not already added.
Once that step is also done, the src RTMP url will look like this : rtmp://localhost/<name of your application folder>/mp4:<stream-name-with-extension>

Broadcasting to a SHOUTcast server

I'm pretty sure this isn't possible with iTunes right now, but I'm hoping they add this feature. What I'm wondering is if there is a plugin or something like that that adds this feature so I can broadcast my music to my SHOUTcast server.

AAC and Apple Lossless are definitely show stoppers with SHOUTcast. Same goes for protected AAC (iTMS music).
I've never tried AIFF, but if it works and you can spare the disc space, there's no harm in that. Audion has a very nice interface for broadcasting which lets you set the on-the-fly transcoding parameters, so your AIFFs become just like tiny MP3 files in real time without the original files themselves being altered in any way.

My apple Tv has audio problems when streaming from my NAS server.

My Apple TV has audio problems when streaming from my NAS server or computer and even internet. I can hear the click sound it makes when you click on the icons, but when the movie starts there is no audio. This even happens when using XBMC. I have HMDI directly to my TV suing Apple TV 2. I have tried resetting, turning off both TV and Apple TV, and changing the HDMI cable. It is driving me nuts.

XMBC requires a hack, we cannot help with hacked devices.

Timecode/TimeStamp in RTMP live streaming using Adobe Media Server and FMLE

HI There,
Am trying to stream a video on to Adobe media server(using RTMP) through FMLE and play it on my web site using JWPlayer. i could stream the video successfully, but know i want to get the timestamp/timecode on the stream. does Adobe media server and FMLE support this kind of use-case ? if not is there any other way to achieve the same. any comments/suggestion/pointers appreciated .
Thanks in Advance
Regards
Deepak

If you're talking about nonstop, continuous streaming, your subscribing client will need to close and reconnect the stream every couple of days, as the server will run out of timestamps for the stream.

How to store Live stream on the other Server

Hello Everyone,
This is very important for me to store all live streams in the archive server at F4V sormat.
to do that I record live stream in the F4V:
mystreams.publish('mp4:' + netstream.name + 'f4v');
mystream.recod();
This cods is work currently in the rootinstall directory's but I wan to store on the archive directory in other linux server.
1- I share the archive folder in the archive server.
2- Create folder on the AMS linux server in the applications/livepkgr/streams/_definst_/archive
3- mount archive folder to the archive folder in other server:
mount -t cifs -o administrator=root,password=myams //192.168.1.100/Archive /opt/adobe/ams/applications/livepkgr/streams/_definst_/Archive
So Archive Server is: 192.168.1.100/Archive.
Now I have problem to store live streams in the Archive server...!!!
When I start publish live events on the Flash Media Server, AMS is make video file with f4v format in the Archive server (ams have access to write in other server) But this file has 0kb. there is no capacity.
Please advise me to solve this problem.
Many Thanks.

This seems like a good guide:

Lion Server (10.7) does still have webmail on board, although this is not the forum, this is.

Listen to a Shoutcast server with a BlackBerry

Hi,
I have a question. Is it possible to listen to a Shoutcast (MP3) stream with a BlackBerry mobile phone without any additional software?
If I want to listen to a Shoutcast with Winamp Media Player on a normal PC I just open a playlist file (e.g. M3U) which contains the URI of the stream server.
Is it possible to do something similar with a BlackBerry?
Thanks for help.

Error flushing the output stream in Sun One server

Hi All,
I was running my servlet code in iPlanet 6.0 version and it was working fine. I upgraded my web server to new Sun One server (Oracle-iPlanet-Web-Server-7.0.9). With the new web server almost 90% of my application works fine, but there is a features in my application to download an Excel sheet by clicking a button. This feature is failing in new Sun One web server.
Below are my piece of code and the error log I m getting. Can anyone tell me how I can fix this error, I mean is there any web server specific change or configuration parameter need to be set.
Please ask for any information regarding my server configuration settings if needed for finding a solution for this

Don't flush it yourself. The servlet container will automatically flush for you once its send buffer is full. You can change the size of the send buffer though.

Is this Possible? Stream Video File using Server or Encoder?

Is it possible to stream a video file (.mp4) Live using the Flash Media Encoder or by placing the file in an app instance on a flash media streaming server?
Thanks!

First of all lets call it Flash Media Interactive Server (adding Streaming becomes little confusing to readers as we have Flash Media Streaming Server) - both are FMS but two different edition.
Now coming to FMIS, you can place all your video files in "streams" directory of application in the simplest configuration and then use Server-side API Class "Stream" to play them. When you use Stream class to play VOD files, it basically becomes live publish and is available as live stream. I will give you simple code snippet which will explain what i am saying above:
var myStream;
application.onAppStart = function(){
     myStream = Stream.get("livestream");
     myStream.onStatus = function(info){
          trace("Info code:"+info.code);
    myStream.play("mp4:myvod.f4v",0,-1,true);
Now client will subscribe to live stream using stream name as "livestream" and it will basically get all the content of mp4:myvod.f4v
Say if you save above code in file named main.asc and place it in application folder named "test" on FMS, you will need to copy "mp4:myvod.mp4" inside "streams" i.e. create "_definst_" folder or any instance name folder under "streams" folder of "test" and place the file there
Hope this helps

BlazeDS with WAS 6.1 streaming channel killing the server?

Hi,
We are experiencing a strange issue with WAS (websphere server) 6.1 with BlazeDS
after a while severe performance degrades and then system hungs shortly after
Some prelimenary observations:
we are seeing following errors in Server Log:
[6/22/10 16:41:26:828 EDT] 000000b0 ThreadMonitor W   WSVR0605W: Thread "WebContainer : 3-in-streaming-mode" (0000002a) has been active for 656127 milliseconds and may be hung. There is/are 1 thread(s) in total in the server that may be hung.
[6/22/10 16:48:00:144 EDT] 000000b1 ThreadMonitor W   WSVR0605W: Thread "WebContainer : 0" (00000027) has been active for 753457 milliseconds and may be hung. There is/are 2 thread(s) in total in the server that may be hung.
We do see that there is always one active connection maintained betweeb browser and server(which is connected to ):
messagebroker/streamingamf
and that keeps sending keep-alive signals , now is this a reason we are getting hung messages? can we safely ingore it?
basically can streaming chanell cause that error? and what would be suggestions tweaks/modifications to fix that issue?
our destination config :
<destination id="alerts-Push-jms" >
        <properties>
            <jms>
                <destination-type>Topic</destination-type>
                <message-type>javax.jms.TextMessage</message-type>
                <connection-factory>jms/***JMSTopicConnectionFactory</connection-factory>
                <destination-jndi-name>jms/AlertEventingTopic</destination-jndi-name>
                <delivery-mode>PERSISTENT</delivery-mode>
                <message-priority>DEFAULT_PRIORITY</message-priority>
                <preserve-jms-headers>"true"</preserve-jms-headers>
                <acknowledge-mode>AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE</acknowledge-mode>
                <max-producers>1</max-producers>
            </jms>
        </properties>
        <adapter ref="jms" />
    <channels>
        <channel ref="my-streaming-amf" />
    </channels>
    </destination>

Actually we did not fix it from WAS perspective, but what we did is ditched a blazeds streaming channel in favor of polling channel,
that solved the issue.
it appears that WAS has issues with connections that are Held open for a long time.
