aac+ stream
  • I added an AAC plus stream as well.

    You need the libaacplus-2.0.2 from http://217.20.164.161/~tipok/aacplus. I don't know if older versions work. There are licensing considerations for AAC+ .

    Compile liquidsoap. I used instructions at
    http:// wiki.sourcefabric.org/display/CC/Building+Liquidsoap+from+SV N. Be sure to enable aacplus in PACKAGES.

    Go to ~/airtime/pypo/liquidsoap/ and backup liquidsoap32.

    Copy the newly compiled liquidsoap from liquidsoap/src to ~/airtime/pypo/liquidsoap/liquidsoap32

    Then I modified my ~/airtime/pypo/scripts/ls_config.liq where it shows ###. Remove the ### for it to work.

    # mountpoints
    mount_point_mp3 = "airtime.mp3"
    mount_point_vorbis = "airtime.ogg"
    ###mount_point_aacplus = "airtime.aacp"
    

    and at the end of ls_config.liq add the ### line without the ###
    output_sound_device = false
    output_icecast_vorbis = true
    output_icecast_mp3 = true
    ###output_icecast_aacplus = true
    


    Then I add the following to the end of ~/airtime/pypo/scripts/ls_scripts.liq:
    if output_icecast_aacplus then
            out_aacplus = output.icecast(%aac+,
                            host = icecast_host, port = icecast_port,
                            password = icecast_pass, mount = mount_point_aacplus,
                            fallible = true,
                            restart = true,
                            restart_delay = 5,
                            url = icecast_url,
                            description = icecast_description,
                            genre = icecast_genre,
                            s)
    end
    


    Now rerun the airtime installer and reboot.

  • Thanks Verheek, we purposely ignored AAC streams for this release, but this may be helpful to others.

  • Great! Someone should probably try it to be sure it works. Mine works but I might have missed something in the post.
