[dev-serveez] experience with "icecast" server

[Raimund 'Raimi' Jacob]

hi!

i am running that server all day with mixed success: xmms does not play
anything but segfaults. that's probably not serveez' fault.

mpg123 plays nicely... but:
---
Directory: http://localhost:8000/
Playing MPEG stream from  ...
MPEG 1.0 layer III, 128 kbit/s, 44100 Hz stereo
Illegal Audio-MPEG-Header 0x4b800000 at offset 0xfffffffb.
Skipped 409 bytes in input.
Illegal Audio-MPEG-Header 0x5441476d at offset 0xfffffffb.
Skipped ID3 Tag!
Illegal Audio-MPEG-Header 0x79207363 at offset 0xfffffffb.
Skipped 280 bytes in input.
---
between each file it has to skip the id3 tag and/or some other garbage i
dont know the source of. this works most of the time but sometimes it
fails to revover:
---
Illegal Audio-MPEG-Header 0x6f747573 at offset 0xfffffffb.
Skipped 5988866 bytes in input.
big_values too large!
Blocktype == 0 and window-switching == 1 not allowed.
---
...and terminates.

bottom line: not for production :-)

Bye,
    Raimi
