 |
|
Hello,
I want to host an icecast server on my PC and my friends could broadcast with it. But I want to limit the bitrate. The DJ cannot broadcast at more than 128 kbps. How to limit the bitrate for every mountpoint ? or for all mountpoints ?
Thank You

There isn't an in-built mechanism to limit a stream bitrate yet. Feel free to add this to bugs.xiph.org if not already. At least it won't get forgotten.

I have this in my branch work for testing. use the <limit-rate> mount setting to specify an upper average limit. Do allow for a little tolerance when specifying a limit. An average is calculated over a period of time which kicks in a limiter and if that stays on for too long then the stream is dropped.
