Live Voice Streaming help

[UnrealizedPot]

Hi.

Don't know if anyone has any experience with this or not, or if it even exists.

I am looking for a way to use a microphone on my personal computer at home to send an audio stream to my linux server at my isp and use either mod_mp3 or ices and icecast to stream it back out onto my website.

Again, this is going (in real time in theory) from my pc at home, to my server at isp, back to listeners via my website.

Any takers.

Thanks.

Never done something like that but did you google?

Im thinking along the lines of Mgetty and Icecast webserver with some groovy <a href> links on your isp website. That is if you have a static IP or some form of dynamic dns service.

I personaly have not used either of them, but this is where I would start....

re-reading your post... [home] ---audio--- [isp] ---audio --- [your website] It seems that you need to stream across multiple servers, almost like a relay station... If that is the case you need icecast on each node, and make sure that they can relay the stream, im starting to boggle at the amount of bandwith that will gobble up. Im sure there is a more economic way of doing it.

For Icecast your alternatives are the other source clients (http://icecast.org/3rdparty.php).

Darkice (http://darkice.sourceforge.net/) looks promising. There is even a GUI in the works.

For Shoutcast (http://www.shoutcast.com/), you could use a Winamp 2.x source client. But that needs Windows.
