Hi all,
this is an attempt to find someone who might have a look at the code of my first (currently non-working) external! It's called shoutcast~ and for Win only (maybe portable to Linux...)... It is intended to encode incoming audio to mp3 (using LAME) and send it to a SHOUTcast or IceCast server (IceCast untested right now). But there are to problems I can't solve:
- pd crashes when I try to read data from an internal buffer - I think
I'm just overlooking something, but after working on this for quite a while I'm somehow blind...
- my mp3 stream is silent. Encoding works well but on the way from the
inlets to the buffer that gets sent to the encoder something seems to be missing / not working. It's the same buffer that sometimes crashes pd!
It would be very nice if someone could have a look at my cources.... There was a discussion on this list concerning mp3 streaming with win. Maybe my external could make life easier: if we can get it to work!
The sources and additional information how things work and what goes wrong can be downloaded at: http://www.akustische-kunst.de/puredata/shoutcast~.zip (157k)
Many thanks!
