[1] The thread prompted me to explore a bit. Installed the icecast package for Arch, and darkice-1.2 from source. Read some docs, edited the config files. Configured darkice to use Jack and mp3. Worked perfectly the first time. Ciao, [1] 'icecast' sounds a bit like the flemish dialect word for fridge. -- FA A world of exhaustive, reliable metadata would be an utopia.

Maybe you should think twice before commenting on things that you don't really know the answer to. The purpose of this thread is to find out if anyone on this list knows the answer. Surely the people who worked so long and hard to bring us icecast and the vorbis tools are not so disinterested in JACK that they have not found the time to add support on their own over the past 14 years. If that is the case then I would like to know if anyone on this list knows why that is so... Perhaps Monty can shed some light on this topic? Or maybe one of the many other long time users of icecast has the details. It does seem to be a glaring omission from that detracts from the flexibility of the official vorbis/icecast toolkit. If it is simply that there is already support in darkice so no one can be bothered to add it to ices then at the very least can we get a note in the official docs about it? -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd

It's hugely versatile for manipulating feeding icecast. I know it accepts input from JACK. I used it as part of the infrastructure for my friends over at http://eargazm.com and it made a huge difference in simplifying operations. The biggest win for me was being able to automatically detect when a live show started, pause the prerecorded source, push the live feed to the stream *and* automatically record the live feed in an .ogg file. -- ====================================================================== Joe Hartley - UNIX/network Consultant - jh(a)brainiac.com Without deviation from the norm, "progress" is not possible. - FZappa
