Icecast 2
Scenario:
I tried setting up IceCast 2 on my local PC running Windows 2000, Apache 2, MySQL and PHP 4 and did some live audio streaming. It did great. Now I want to try this on a Fedora Core 1 box and completely elliminate all traces of Micro$oft products in my PC. The problem: 1. I know nothing about Linux (except for ls and cd). 2. Everything else follows... Can somebody help with this (Pls. no Matian language again)... |
You may want to try the simple one: http://ample.sourceforge.net/
|
Does this one support streaming audio coming from external source? (e.g. microphone, mixer, etc.). Thanks
|
I think the first thing to actually do is try. Grab the source, and read the posts on installing applications in Linux. Or possibly there is an RPM out there for your system. From there, it's much easier to walk you through areas where you run into trouble.
That is of course if you do need the robustness of IceCast and something smaller won't suffice (for example, ample as mentioned above). Cool |
sorry for asking...
|
Oh no, please, don't take my response as that. Rather I meant to give it a go, and if you run into problems, it'll be a lot easier to guide you through at that point.
If you need some in depth help with installing applications, there are multitudes of threads that give very good instructions, nonetheless, if you cannot understand them, let us know so we can clarify the portion you can't understand. Cool |
FWIW IceCast 2.1.0 has RPM's available and is fairly straight forward to setup. I'd say give it a try, and let us know if you run into any problems.

Thanks guys!
I'll give that a go then I'll get back whether successful or not. Thanks again. |
Hi again. Still no success.
This is what I did: Code:
tar xvzf /path-to-tarball/icecast-1.3.7.tar.gz Code:
./configure Thanks. |
When you get an error and it does not complete a successful 'make' a make install is not the way to continue ;) If somebody somehow goofed when writing something, you could be installing things that didn't really end up being compiled, or compiled completely, and then you'd have yourself a ton of worthless files trollin around your system.
I'd say the way to go is probably grabbing either the CVS version, see if that undefined reference is fixed, or an older version where it may not exist, OR the better option to grab the RPM that Jeremy referred to as it would be much easier to install on your system. Cool |
Also, the 1.3.x tree is no longer supported. You may want to grab 2.1.x and try again.
