|
|
Hello,
I have three questions about flac stream,
1 - does icecast server should support now Flac with no bug?
2 - does icecast should now support metadata from flac stream?
3 - when receiving metadata (witch doesn't appear on icecast...), client stop playing at each new track... is it a server or a client issue?
I have to remove metadata from liquid soap I use to stream to icecast server to make it not stop each track.
I use 2.4.3 version on ubuntu 12.04
thank you |

flac within ogg should be ok, flac outside of the ogg wrapper may not work.
I'm not aware of any changes to the flac parts to trap for metadata updates, a small coding project for someone?
that sounds like the typical client bug of not handling chains.

We've tested FLAC streaming and there does not appear to be metadata support. This is FLAC in the Ogg container. Also, FLAC streams showing in the Icecast Directory are showing as Ogg Vorbis streams. |
