I must also check the firewall settings and log - just in case it is
stopping some packets streamed by waveincmd. Will do that tonight.


At present - the external CD player is connected 'analogoly' to the
linein inputs on the server motherboard and waveinput streams the
wavin:1 - which is the linein. I can monitor the sound at the server
via headphones on line out. I know the purpose is to provide CDs in the
kitchen for 'er indoors' but I found the quality of the sound card audio
too poor for my taste - both when streamed and direct from the
headphones. To improve the sound quality I was going to buy an spdif to
usb interface if I could find one - or a better usb analogue input card
- but only if the basic analogue in test worked OK.

I have been looking at icecast and may have a go with that as a free
standing option - just to take one level of complexity out of the
situation and maybe prove a point.

Thanks for all your help.
