icecast2
=====
ENABLE=true
=====
start the icecast
/etc/init.d/icecast2 start
edit /etc/icecast2/icecast.xml enable the relay if you want.
There are two types of relays: a “Master server relay” or a “Specific Mountpoint relay.” A Master server relay is only supported between icecast2 servers and is used to relays all mountpoints on a remote icecast2 server.
icecast.xml
=======
master-server 127.0.0.1 master-server
master-server-port 8001 master-server-port
master-update-interval 120 master-update-interval
master-password hackme master-password
relays-on-demand 1 relays-on-demand
on-demand 1 on-demand
relay-shoutcast-metadata 1 relay-shoutcast-metadata
example:
relay
server 127.0.0.1 server
port 8001 port
mount /example.ogg mount
local-mount different.ogg local-mount
on-demand 1 on-demand
(if your want to stream the mounted /example.ogg via /different.ogg in server)
========
restart the icecast server
/etc/init.d/icecast2 restart
with your browser
http://localhost:8000/
(user: admin, pass: hackme, by default)
copy a audio.ogg or video.ogg in your “/usr/share/icecast2/web/” and test it with your player.
Ices2 config
(Ogg Vorbis streaming source for Icecast 2)
#apt-get install ices2
cd /usr/share/doc/ices2/examples/
To stream some pre-encoded ogg files
cp /usr/share/doc/ices2/examples/ices-playlist.xml /usr/share/icecast2/web/
edit the /usr/share/icecast2/web/ices-playlist.xml
ices-playlist.xml
==========
hostname localhost hostname
port 8000 port
password hackme password
mount /example1.ogg mount
param name=”restart-after-reread” 1 param (optional)
==========
you can hear it via
http://localhost:8000/example1.ogg
if you change it to /example.ogg,
then you can hear it via
http://localhost:8000/example.ogg
or
http://localhost:8000/different.ogg (via the relay)
create a playlist “playlist.txt” in /usr/share/icecast2/web/
playlist.txt

start the stream
# ices2 ices-playlist.xml
To stream from Input (alsa or oss)
cp /usr/share/doc/ices2/examples/ices-alsa.xml /usr/share/icecast2/web/
edit the /usr/share/icecast2/web/ices-alsa.xml if your need.

you can hear it via
http://localhost:8000/example1.ogg
if you change it to /example.ogg,
then you can hear it via
http://localhost:8000/example.ogg
or
http://localhost:8000/different.ogg (via the relay)
start the live stream
# ices2 ices-alsa.xml
Video Streaming
#apt-get install ffmpeg ffmpeg2theora oggfwd
example:
#ffmpeg2theora output.ogg -x 320 -y 240 -V 150 -A 64 -o – –optimize | oggfwd localhost 8000 hackme /theora.ogg
(if your want to stream the output.ogg via mountpoint /theora.ogg in icecast server)
play http://localhost:8000/theora.ogg
done 🙂
