Floodcast
Source (link to git-repo or to original if based on someone elses unmodified work):
- Running a simple standalone-server on the machine Noatun is running on
- Forwarding whatever sound is currently played in Noatun to some shoutcast- or icecast-server
It was originally developed by Ryan !#**$%? (aka Phalynx) and is now revived by me.
Software needed:
KDE 3.2.x
lame binary - http://www.mp3dev.org/mp3/
libshout - http://www.icecast.org/download.php
0.0.12:
- turn on/off floodcast from its control-panel
- new option: automatically reconnect on shoutcast connection errors
- Shoutcast compatible title-streaming in standalone-mode (yes, finally people can see what track you are rocking to)
- status-window now also for forward-mode
- on-demand retrieval of listener-stats in forward-mode (not automated due to bandwidth considerations)
- removed kdDebug statement that kept floodcast from compiling on KDE 3.2.x
0.0.11:
- support for CBR/ABR/VBR mp3 encoding. You can choose whatever you like (note: CBR is still the most common setting for streaming to shoutcast-servers)
- add Brazilian translation, thanks to Rogerio Pereira
- add (incomplete) German translation
- reintegrate status-window for standalone server, it was left out so far to ease restructuring
- fix hostname lookups in status-window
- update connection times in status-window every 10 seconds and not only once a minute
0.0.10:
- Abort streaming after 3 failed send calls, this might help for buggy connections
- Use QTimer for syncing with shoutcast server instead of blocking noatun all the time
- Allow streaming with a fixed track-name instead of using tags from noatun
- Buffer encoded mp3 data before sending it in order to avoid dropouts, not sure if this helps much
0.0.9b:
- First official release + one fix for a bug that could hang your X11
