Sorry to break this to you but Live365 doesn't work with Linux streamers. They do funky things by hiding the ports the server is really on and you need to stream an MP3 format. On top of this there are proprietary commands for turning the server on. I ended up having to use an XP VM just to get this going, they aren't interested in making a Linux client either (check their forums for more info).

I have installed darkice, and believe I have it configured correctly. My darkice.cfg: [general] duration = 0 # duration of encoding, in seconds. 0 means forever bufferSecs = 5 # size of internal slip buffer, in seconds reconnect = yes # reconnect to the server(s) if disconnected # this section describes the audio input that will be streamed [input] device = jack # OSS DSP soundcard device for the audio input sampleRate = 44100 # sample rate in Hz. try 11025, 22050 or 44100 bitsPerSample = 16 # bits per sample. try 16 channel = 2 # channels. 1 = mono, 2 = stereo [icecast2-0] format = vorbis bitrateMode = cbr bitrate = 96 quality = 0.8 server = xxx.xxx.xx.xx # Live365 IP address mountPoint = # Live365 doesn't require a mount pint port = xxxxx # Live365 port password = xxxxxxxx # Live365 account password public = yes As far as I can tell, this configuration is correct. However, when I run darkice, I get this: DarkIce 0.20.1 live audio streamer, http://darkice.tyrell.hu/ Copyright (c) 2000-2007, Tyrell Hungary, http://tyrell.hu/ Using config file: /etc/darkice.cfg Using JACK audio server as input device.

Am I missing a step here? Thanks for the help!
