hi,
 
here's the sunday delivery :
 
shoutamp~ is an icecast/shoutcast(soon) client for PD.
it is co-authored by Olaf Matthes & I.
 
it has only been tested with icecast on linux.
 
it should be quite ok for shoutcast.
 
BUT, there's a problem ( reported by Olaf )
with MP3 decoding on Windows,
so mp3live~ and shoutamp~
are not available for windowers.
 
Here's the state-of-the-art for MP3 streaming :
 
PD  <------> PD                     : mp3streamout~/mp3streamin~ [ mp3live~ ]
PD  --------> Shoutcast/Icecast     : shoutcast~
Shoutcast/Icecast -----> PD         : shoutamp~
PD ------> File                     : mp3write~
File -----> PD                      : mp3fileout~/mp3streamin~ [ mp3live~ ]
 
I'm sorry not to mention d_mp3 but i only had bad sound with it.
It's even not compatible with mp3live~ and shoutamp~
due to the rewritting of lame's decoding routines.
 
Enjoy !!!
