I suggest you add 66.249.66.211 to your firewall for now.

A little more thoroughness on my part, and I see that it's ok when I put in the user/pass for the mount I want to change. I get a Segmentation Fault when I inadvertantly put in the user/pass for the admin. I obviously shouldn't do that, but perhaps a bit of protection could be added for when goofbal...

well, the next step in my linked mount config is to separately update meta data. I'm doing tests using firefox as a browser and entering the following line: http://someserver.com:8000/admin.cgi?user=xxx&pass=xxxxxx&mode=updinfo$song=sometitle If I do that, I get a Segmentation Fault. Steamca...

a little follow up. I can make it work the way I want by making use of a relay into it. sort of like this on port 8000 mount (a relay to 8100) on port 8100 main mount is for me back mount is a relay of another source. I need to initially connect on 8100 main mount, then the relay on 8000 picks it up...

Would it be easy (and might you consider) having it work that way with YP disabled? You'd have at least the one fan over here!

ok, I'll do some extra testing. thanks for clarifying that it doesn't supply a backup mount until a listener is connected. and more to the point, a listener can't connect until a direct source is feeding the mount. I would personally find the behaviour to be more useful if it did present the backup ...

well, I'm kinda stumped. everything is I believe it should be. I did do this stuff successfully with a previous version (.73 perhaps?) but I had some other issues that prevented me using it. If you still have the login for that account on my server, you can login to the shell yourself and run this. ...

here a snip of the log. this repeats every 10 seconds. <02/09/2007@20:07:46> [src] Attempting a connection with relay: localhost:8200/dj [1801] <02/09/2007@20:07:46> [src] Connection successful to localhost:8200/dj <02/09/2007@20:07:46> [src] Relay Thread #1: host returned error (ICY 401 No Source) ...

I'm getting back to doing some mount backups in my configs (something I once had working fine btw). I'd appreciate some feedback on whether or not I misunderstand how this works, or if maybe steamcast isn't playing nice with me. Brief description. I want to have a mount use a relay as a backup. If I...

here's a handy transcoder. http://www.oddsock.org/tools/streamTranscoderV3/ make the mounts in steamcast, use this to feed it.

I don't have Vista, but as I understand it, you have the option of running a program in XP compatibiliy mode. Not sure how you would invoke that for steamcast, but I would explore that option.

or perhaps this might help you out htttp://ubuntu.com

customizable? can you elaborate?

I personally recommend x.264 for a codec. Cross platform, and good stuff. basically a free version of h.264.

I'm not understanding the part where you said what you tried.

In any event, if it's the CR thing, do you know how to remove them? Make sure you do this from the .conf file, (steamcast-default.conf or whatever you've renamed it to), mime.types, and steamauth.txt.

Just to follow up on this thread. With Jay's help, it seems that the text files that come with the linux tar contains (CR)(LR) for line endings. Redhat Enterprise 3 doesn't handle the CR's properly, perhaps newer versions filter them, and E3 passes them. I don't know if Jay will choose to patch stea...
