Hi Yves,
well, now we have another problem with 'version nameclashes'... Searching through my sent mails I found that I released a 0.2 version of shoutcast~ on 24th of january this year.
we've got branches now that's right -- that's why i indicated this applied to my sole objects.
+ due to the lack of time, i cannot merge the codes now
Your release, Yves, is based on very old shoutcast~ code. In the meantime I got a lot of feedback from people having trouble with crashes and also experienced this problems in my own projects involving shoutcast~. Thus I release version 0.3 (in july) which uses multithreading to avoid audio dropouts (beneath other improvements).
i don't have much crashes with my version -- we performed live already and we will do it again on the September, 11th !! ( urls from www.noweb.org ).
I think we should somehow label our code to point out that your shoutcast~ 0.2 is different from my shoutcast~ 0.2. Anyway, I would like to include your latest enhancement into shoutcast~ 0.3...
feel free to do so.
BTW, because of many many crashes and other problems with shoutamp~ I'm currently working on shoutamp~ 0.5. It will use a completely new buffer management. - Just to inform you and to a void another 'versionclash' ;-)
i experience these crashes too but since they are located in lame's internal algorithms, i wish you good luck to find a solution.
+ i didn't like the pre-buffering concept, to behave like xmms, i want to make fast cuts and don't want no delay.
Olaf
PS: multiple encoders always worked in win.
best,
