hmm looks like I need to re-examine the Data flow detection code. Will fix it by next release.

You might try restarting the server and see if that resolves it although I doubt it.

well I finally captured what is going on, the server only sends headers then for some reason abruptly the connection is aborted.

May want to post your configuration file so I can see what is going on more clearly.


Also check your log for any strange Reason messages for connections being aborted ...

still the same problem, you might try upgrading to oddcast3. Also make sure you are using the LAME encoder.

/EDIT: I finally got connected, but still it's hit or miss if I try reconnecting.

well something isn't right. When I try to listen with Winamp I get mpeg sync errors.

You don't need anything special for this to work in wmp. But if the stream doesn't work in winamp it for sure won't work in WMP.

What are you using as the source tool btw and what method are you using to source ...

the restriction is that they must use Windows Media Player 7.1 and up. It should work as long as they have at least that version. You also must be streaming mp3. All other formats currently supported in Steamcast are not supported by windows media.

Also as a side note, if you plan on having windows ...

in that case i would have sc_trans run 24/7 on the main mount and just kick its source through the admin panel when you want to go online with your show. Once you go offline sc_trans should auto reconnect.

everything below SourceBuffUtil doesn't need to be duplicated

so the Directory and SrvIP and SrcIP only need be done once, not per source as you seem to have it.

Basically if the Configuration Item starts with Source it belongs to a SourceMount.

Also sourcebackup will not keep the source that is ...

so it is happening because you are killing the source or is the source still going. The fact is that error should only show up if the client receives no data for 60 seconds. The fact that it happens so quickly means you probably found some bug, while we are at it go ahead and pm me your config file ...

do you get any audio?

you setup the backup mount the exact same way as you setup any other mount point with the exception of the backupmount.

The setting will not be identical to any other mount so you need to redefine everything.

http://www.radiotoolbox.com/docs/index.php?p_id=4&doc_id=4 goes into detail on how the ...

since version 0.9.7 it works

sc_trans will do that. If you need it to transcode a url stream then the only thing I know if is oddsock's transcoder.

you do have clustering capabilities if you list on shoutcast.com

basically you setup 2 sources in steamcast then you assign one of the sources to the other by using the sourcebackup.

Steamcast will not transcode so every encoding setting needs to be identical. Also if you relay at all the meta interval must be identical at this point.

The closest steamcast provides for is SourceBackup.

However you will still need to have a connected encoder to source the backup mount. If you want something local you can use something local like a local winamp or sc_trans depending on your environment.
