I'm assuming the dial the number is actually a call over the data network. In that case he could just heavily compress the stream as Pippin suggests. Not sure how that compression compares to VOIP compression. I guess the voice-only voip compression is more effective. I have to say I'm

Sorry, I definitely don't understand what you are doing and how that's reducing the bandwidth. If you have lame installed (and working) on LMS iPeng will make it transcode your audio to 128 Kbps when used over cellular network (by default) and you can configure it to go as low as 64kbps. Are you

I'm steaming the audio to a VoIP client. I dial a phone number to hear the audio. Since this is spoken word, the audio quality is ok. For music, I could transcode to a lower bitrate to use data. Otherwise yourmuze.fm does that for Internet streams. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yes, but for a local stream that only works in the local network! I mean: is your phone is connected through a remote network, then your stream ALSO would have to be available on the Internet to play it, how should the stream get from your local network to the phone if it's not? --- learn more

It might be worth telling us what you are trying to achieve. People here can then suggest set-ups that would help you achieve that. You seem to be halfway down a solution that doesn't seem typical. Louis 'Last.fm' (http://www.last.fm/user/lrossouw)

You can open NAT forward port 9000 to your Pi and put a password on the server, although you may want to use a VPN as I'm not sure how secure the password on the server is when exposed to the internet at large? Then you can access the local web interface on the net while still playing the local
