There are a couple of problem you've got here:

1) The transmitter thread is exiting -- it shouldn't do that. Make sure
your transmit address is a valid multicast address. Try the standard
225.2.1.5:4420 -- that should work ok. You also have multicast support
compiled into your kernel, right?

2) Once you fix #1 you should be able to run obsd -- it will still
complain about no tracks in the database. The code in CVS now has a
command line option -n that allows you to start obsd without actually
starting to stream MP3s. Its a cleaner solution for the chicken and the
egg problem.

SubmitTrack requires the obsd is running. Fix the problems above and
SubmitTrack should work fine. Let me know if you need more help.
