Limit source kbps

akrall · Post by **akrall** » Fri Feb 11, 2005 7:57 pm

Is it possible to limit the incoming source max bps? for example, if I setup a stream server for a user and I only want him to source a 24 kbps incoming source .. is this possible so he can send a 32 or more kbps source?

Seems shoutcast cant do this right? can steamcast? or icecast or any cast

?

From the config file:

Code: Select all

; SourceBitrateLimit: Set this to have Steamcast kick sources that exceed a
; certain average data rate.  This value is based on actual data transfer and not any particular
; format headers.  This is a great way to control users in community or hosting
; environments.  Default is no limits.  Be careful with this, sometimes there can be
; transfer spikes that can set this off.
; SourceAvgBitrateLimit=128
