As you know, for years they have been broadcast on the Internet podcast, that is, the distribution of audio files over the network to create our own playlists or radio "channel" so that other users can listen to it. Although there are also video ones, but we are not interested in those for this article. Well, if you want to distribute streaming audio over your local network or over the Internet to everyone ...
We bring you various programs for Linux with which you can do this in a simple, professional way and enjoying broadcasting the audio as you like. Of course, you must have a good bandwidth and the software that we present here installed on your system. Although there are more alternatives, these are the packages that we recommend, download and install them and you will be able to start enjoying the broadcast.
The packages you need are ice cast, which does not take much more than 2MB, and also other packages like EZStream, which are only a few KBs, and the libshout, libvorbis and libogg libraries that also occupy a few KBs each. Therefore, they are not heavy packages, far from it, it is simple software. Once downloaded and installed, you can configure the /usr/local/etc/icecast.xml file for the services. And after following a few simple steps, which you can find in various tutorials on the net ... you can start using everything.
If you don't like IceCast, you can choose to other alternatives. Gnump3 is another alternative to IceCast, but if you prefer web-based services, you have projects like Ampache and Subsonic (or their Fork Libresonic), all of them available for various platforms, including GNU / Linux and with capabilities to distribute audio in streaming and share it. with your cyber friends or followers. The truth is that it is a topic that we have not covered much in LxA, but there may be users that interest you.
Some package that takes the audio output ?, that is, it does not use a particular list of songs in a certain location, but takes what is being heard on the audio output, regardless of the software used to listen to music. Something like this could be done long ago with the xmmx and the icecast, but it seems to me that it is no longer possible with the current packages.
Well, if I would like to know if there is a program that takes the audio output of a link and can retransmit it above all to avoid regional blocks of platforms such as radionomy
Ezstream tells me the following error:
ezstream [305221]: stream: default: no configuration
which may be?
What do you mean by that title?
Whoever enters to read you, assumes that what he is going to find is the way to set up his radio with Icecast in linux ..
And you talk to him as if the poor ignorant knew the same as you
Guys like you are the ones who make people leave linux, the ones who try to get in, get sick of reading guys who swell like turkeys to brag about what they know, but without any ability to teach anything
