Multi stream ?

[EricZone]

How can i broadcast Multistream, one at 30k for modem users, one at 128k... ?

That would be a Shoutcast DNAS type forum question. Unless Jay can answer it.

Multiple streams using multiple bitrate speeds from a single DNAS server.

Found something that might help you out.

This document describes how to create a Shoutcast stream that sends out one stream at two different bitrates.

Thanks but this tutorial is only for audio.
The only problem to provide 2 streams for me is to open 2 encoder, and get the same video source (firewire) hoping he won't tell be "source unavailable/busy"

didn't I already answer this for you? http://forums.winamp.com/showthread....hreadid=171033
You cannot record from a device with multiple peices of software. It's a limitation of windows. Use Splitcam if you want to try anyway.

Splitcam doesnt work on my firewire port
Maybe i can try to run 2 server, one relaying the other in lower stream ?

[EricZone]

Error, it does works on firewire
But splitcam takes 50% CPU, even on a P4 -3Ghz.
No more CPU ressourcefor 2 encoders
I need a server side solution

[EricZone]

Shoutcast really needs a Multistream solution, or maybe the encoder.
A serverside solution would be a second stream made from the main stram, all on the server, live.
That would be so cool.

I'm a little confused as to what they're talking about when they say "Right click and drag "sc_serv_gui" to some white space (background) and let go." Are they saying right click and drag the icons to the desktop? The 2 sample pictures they provide do not show up in my browser.

Eric did you get your Shoutcast to send 2 live streams. I'm trying to do the same thing but I'm having problems.

[Jay]

if you want 2 streams then you will need to setup 2 SHOUTcast servers.

I know I'm pressing my luck but is there anyone out there willing to email me their 2 SHOUT cast server files so that I can look to see how the files are saved?

Email them to ezratillman@comcast.net

Hey ya!

In fact is very easy to set up multiple shoutcast servers on your computer!

You only have to write some batch files and you're done!

They have to look this way (for example):

I have a file named server32.bat which only says:

sc_serv.exe sc_serv32.ini

And another named server64.bat which says:

sc_serv.exe sc_serv64.ini

Now the trick is in the .ini files. You just have to change port, and maybe password. That's your choice.

In fact I added a third instance to broadcast nsv content from another batch I wrote. It takes very little cpu power.

Now with 2 audio servers and a video server, I'm having the bandwidth blues, so for the first time of mf my life I began paying for streaming hosting.
But I ran out of funds last month, so I had to go back to my real job (doing TV commercials) for this week to collect some funds. In the meantime, I returned to the homebased server.

By the way, I'm the guy who plays horror movies, and my goal is to produce some really cool content of my own.
Maybe someday.

I thought I was doing something wrong but I have it set up correctly. The problem is that my server isn't listening on any other ports except for 8000 and 8001. I have to figure out how to make my Linux server listen on port 8002 and 8003. Any suggestions

[Jay]

just create another sc_serv.conf file and call it sc_serv2.conf then edit the port base and execute a second server with that config file

./sc_serv sc_serv.conf &
./sc_serv sc_serv2.conf &

[number1talent]

Jay, wouldn't that be the same as creating 2 config files and naming one low.ini and one high.ini which is what I did already? I even modified the default port base on the original file just to see if it would stream on ports 8002 and 8003 and when I check the log I don't get any errors but again, when I attempted to stream it couldn't connect.

Let me know if setting up 2 different sc files is the same thing I've already done. According to the instruction I was given.
