Hello,

when I try to play a 320k stream from Icecast with some players (e.g. exstreamer) or relaying it with Shoutcast I have Dropouts.

Any Idea ? I've seen a post from 2001 that I should

"Add "sleep_ratio 0" to your icecast.conf".

But how can I do this in Icecast 2.2.0 ?

Which part drops, the connection feeding icecast or the listener that is receiving from icecast. With the latter you may see a 'client too far behind message' in the error log, which will be down to a bandwidth issue. What are the values for queue-size and burst-size ?

What the listeners gets is dropped sometimes.

Queue Size: 819200
Burstsize. 16384

client too far behind indicates that the client has reached the end of the 819200 bytes of queued data. It's not clear from your posts so far if that is what you are getting. Make sure that the listeners can be fed a 320kbit data stream, check for bandwidth limits or if the TCP may be throttled if the latency is high enough.
