Hi,
this is my final version of the recently released ices-2.0.1, which
contains some bugfixes over the aged version 2.0.0 that I have been
waiting for.
"Ices2 is a source client for streaming Ogg Vorbis audio to an Icecast
v2 server. It supports streaming of .ogg files in playlist mode as well
as encoding and streaming live input."
This port neither replaces not conflicts with net/ices, which is for
streaming MP3. This is done by appending the number 2 on the binary and
any directories in share/examples and share/doc it creates - this is
also the reason why the resulting package is called ices2-0.1.tgz
instead of ices-2.0.1.tgz ... I like that better, and it happens to fit
into the naming scheme of ices0 (net/ices, currently at ices-0.3.)
The port automagically creates a sample configuration file ices-sun.xml,
which is streaming live input from line-in on OpenBSD nicely. The sample
configuration ices-playlist.xml is installed as a @sample in /etc/ices2.xml.
Tested on i386. Please test on other archs and comment. (I suspect it
may not work well on slow architectures, the hardware needs to be
capable of encoding Ogg Vorbis faster-than-realtime to produce a
reliable stream.)
Thanks,
Moritz
