I have put together a guide for NSV streaming with the Icecast media server.
www.scvi.net/nsvice.htm

Comments, additions or corrections would be greatly appreciated.

Question:

<listen-socket>
<port>8000</port>
</listen-socket>
<listen-socket>
<port>8000</port>
<shoutcast-compat>1</shoutcast-compat>
</listen-socket>

Shouldn't the second port be 8001 instead of 8000 twice?

regards
epe

I will get that fixed asap.

Why the difference in port numbers between those two configurations ?

Because nullsoft wanted it that way. The ports N and N+1 are required by those source clients. In my branch work I'm trying out another option for listen-socket, shoutcast-mount. Defining it makes that implicity define the port N+1 socket with the same options and allows for multiple shoutcast-style clients connect to one icecast as well.

So the first Listen-Socket configuration is for Icecast compliant source software and the second Listen-Socket configuration is for Shoutcast compliant source software ?

Icecast2 source clients only need the one port, and in this example, port 8000 would be ok for that. With shoutcast source clients the latter port is used for the sending of the stream while metadata is sent via the former port. The protocol for the latter port is not http, so is identified specially.

Thanks for the input.
