Actually due to Icecast Server YP code being carefully designed we don't have any need for automatic blacklisting, so far.
We do have various monitoring features to detect badly configured servers. ... |

If the problem persists, test if you can reach the directory server using curl and ping. |

Yes, it's a bit counter intuitive, but by creating a <mount> config section for each of the files and having that require authentication. |

That's why it's generally recommended to only advertize the top most URL of a fallback chain to listeners.
You can work around this by manually transferring listeners:

hehe.
BTW: Icecast will flat out refuse to run as root if you don't configure privilege dropping. Because running services as root is bad, mkaaaaay. |

You could stream on port 80 instead of 8000, that would work.
Yes, using the IANA assigned ports is preferred. In case of HTTPS (aka <ssl>1</ssl>) the port would be 443.

I suspect it's the output format guessing.
In general having a "file extension" on your mountpoint is useful as there are still many broken players out there.
The alternative is probably ... |

That sounds quite suspicious, yes.
Really stable sound cards are hard to come by.

VLC should work for sure.
It would happily play MPEG-TS with MPEG1L2 audio from my DBOX2 back in the days, also exposed as a (horribly unstable) HTTP stream. |

In theory MPEG 1 layer 2 (aka MP2) should also work with Icecast. After all we just forward the raw bitstream in case of "unsupported" formats (this includes MP3 and by extension MP2).

I said it implicitly, but to spell it out. Also try with a different sound card.
TBH: We (the Icecast team) don't see anything obvious here and it's hard to diagnose.
I'd also consider long runn ... |

From a different angle. Could you try to see if there is any correllation between things like how long a client was connected and how much it's lagging?
