I had a dig around this very subject ages ago and from what I could
figure out the main hurdle to overcome is ShoutCast's method of sending
data based on the user agent, flash in the browser looks to it like
just a browser and so sends a web page, try it.. Punch in a stream URL
into your browser and you get a web page (last time I looked it did). A
lot of folks have hacked it using a PHP server app as a proxy, I
suspect Wowza works the same way but using Java and instead of a simple
proxy it just makes the stream available in the server just like any
other media stream. Juan, I'm sure if you guys offer a bounty out of all that cash you've saved by not having to spend on FMS2 someone would relish the task of coding a solution for you and earn you the love of the Red5 Community along the way. It's really just an mp3 stream subscriber that ties in to Red5 to make it a stream object, it would be smart to spec it to receive url parameters from the flash client obviously subject to an allowed domains config file on the server side. I'm pretty sure flash can handle the ID3 data but reckon you'd need some client side AS to refresh that or flash will just hang on to the very first block of ID3 it gets, alternatively and far more elegantly would have the server app read the "live" ID3 from the incoming ShoutCast stream and make that data available as a server side shared object.

I would use shoutcast for your purpose and embed quicktime I guess. you are out of luck with choice of codec. However I would possibly check out wowza they claim to be able to re-stream a shoutcast broadcast into a flash stream, it may well be still an mp3 stream not nelly moser or whatever the silly voice codec is.Juan Carlos Garcia wrote:Actually we are a radio station that is about to launch on the internet, we were going to use FMS 2, but opted for Red5, we are in the process of setting it up and getting it to run. Our stream right now is online (live), but the DJ console is coming out on mono, not stereo. We are sending out our music at a fill 44Khz at 128kbps. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] On Behalf Of Barry Beattie Sent: Monday, June 18, 2007 7:23 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [Red5] Stereo Streaming Juan; as a side question, do you know how much streaming bandwidth decent quality stereo audio might need? I haven't a clue but I am very curious. I wouldn't expect uninteruptable 20Hz-20KHz but surely FM-radio quality should be possible... ... yes? _______________________________________________ Red5 mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/red5_osflash.org _______________________________________________ Red5 mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/red5_osflash.org_______________________________________________ Red5 mailing list [email protected] http://osflash.org/mailman/listinfo/red5_osflash.org |
