http://www.poromenos.org/tutorials/icecast
I'm using this guys tutorial and I can't figure it out.
In my Icecast 2.x Config window I see this
| Code: |
<!-- This config file contains a minimal set of configurable parameters,
and mostly just contains the things you need to change. We created
this for those who got scared away from the rather large and heavily
commented icecast.xml.dist file. -->
<icecast>
<limits>
<sources>2</sources>
</limits>
<authentication>
<source-password>xxx</source-password>
<relay-password>xxx</relay-password>
<admin-user>xxx</admin-user>
<admin-password>xxx</admin-password>
</authentication>
<hostname>http://24.71.238.125</hostname>
<listen-socket>
<port>8000</port>
</listen-socket>
<fileserve>1</fileserve>
<paths>
<logdir>./logs</logdir>
<webroot>../web</webroot>
<adminroot>../admin</adminroot>
<alias source="/" dest="http://24.71.238.125:8000/Rage.ogg"/>
</paths>
<logging>
<accesslog>access.log</accesslog>
<errorlog>error.log</errorlog>
<loglevel>3</loglevel> <!-- 4 Debug, 3 Info, 2 Warn, 1 Error -->
</logging>
</icecast>

im using winamp and the edcast plugin to stream the music to the server.
My problem lies in that the supposed link to the station
| Quote: |
| http://24.71.238.125:8000/Rage.ogg |
doesn't play.
It could be that I'm playing it in iTunes, so another question being can you use Icecast(and edcast) with iTunes?
What am I doing wrong? |

a couple of small things to clear up. hostname do not begin with http:// they are either an IP address or a DNS name. If this is the windows build then change the .. to . in webroot and adminroot. The alias doesn't work with an full absolute url link, you would need an alias of / to /Rage.ogg
For ogg content you will need a player that can handle deciding of ogg, I suspect itunes would need the qt plugin. Try winamp or similar.
