Ok, so I went and saw icecast's code. What it does is: it converts mp3 metadata to the charset set for the given mountpoint. This means that by default, all metadata sent by icecast are in latin1 encoding for non-ogg mountpoints. This also means that the encoding used between the source and icecast is irrelevant for listeners. Finally, since utf8 is a much more general encoding, it is obvious that it should be the default for any icecast output. Case closed, let's code now :-) Romain ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ All the data continuously generated in your IT infrastructure contains a definitive record of customers, application performance, security threats, fraudulent activity and more.
