9. Shoutcast/Icecast

 

 

Shoutcast/Icecast streams mp3 files over http. kmpg connects to an icecast server, and then plays the mp3 stream. It sometimes can take up to 1 minute until kmpg synchronises the mp3 stream and filled the buffer. There is currently no feedback in the GUI about the state of the connection, so have a little patience and wait for the connect.

I have tested it with the icecast server for linux on my machine and it works quite good.For more information on icecast look at www.icecast.org
