convert WMA to MP3 stream on-the-fly

Crit · 09-30-2009, 11:35 AM

Hello,

for converting a WMA to a MP3 stream 24h by day, I consider to lease a virtual server.
Is this basically possible in linux (ubuntu server 8.04), maybe with Video LAN Client software?

In windows my command line is for my network

Code:

vlc --qt-start http://www.radioeins.de/live.wax :sout=#transcode{acodec=mp3,ab=320,channels=2,samplerate=48000}:std{access=http,mux=raw,dst=:8080}

Thank you,
sinceraly yours,
Friedemann.

PS: Sorry for my bad english.

mkfifo soundpipe

lame -b 64 soundpipe output.mp3 & mplayer -quiet -ao http://www.radioeins.de/live.wax

I haven't had a chance to test this - I don't have audio at work.

I found this (more or less) here:

Hi mmrtnt,
hi anybody else,

thank you for answering, mmrtnt.

Can you be sure of your solve working? Particularly with regard to the WMA-Stream.

Did somebody stream a WMA to a MP3 on Linux?

Because this is for next time the single reason for me leasing a virtual server - and it costs not a little bit of money.

Bye,
Friedemann.
