Hi Robert, interesting indeed, what size is your EC2 instance? TBs of music at Amazon sounds really expensive - I'd probably have those sitting on my home server instead, and just have the service in the cloud if performance allows.I have succe…

Ingesting a remote (soundcloud) audio file
Hi I am now trying to do similar - any updates from all you guys on your progress? So far it looks like not even the Webstream function works 100%. Quirky LiquidSoap can't deal with as many stream constructs as say Shoutcast/WinAmp/VLC, and …

that's doesn't work with linux... forget it That's not a problem... I shared Bitcasa from Windows to Linux which now shows 8 million terabytes of space. Metadata is available fast enough, just haven't tested actual play yet.

Airtime 2.5.0 Beta 1 Released!
Ok Thomas, so it sounds like for your authentication problem, you think the parameters and values at the end of the stream URL are getting cut off by Airtime? Sounds like we should be able to reproduce that in the lab. Yes, the listener key proble…

I've do it a lot of time ;-) and now it's very easy to implement. (directly in fstab) https://help.ubuntu.com/community/SSHFS I see a new option here: Bitcasa Infinite Drive ... if mounted and useable by Airtime it would be the ulti…

Airtime 2.5.0 Beta 1 Released!
Hi Thomas, it sounds like the issue is that streams added to the Library do not support this particular type of listener authentication at playout time (which seems different from the Icecast method shown at http://www.icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.3.3…

Airtime 2.5.0 RC1 Available
Hi Thomas, Debian wheezy (stable) is an equally valid option, you can use it instead of Ubuntu if you prefer. As for the best Ubuntu version, we officially support LTS releases only, such as 12.04.x. From an Airtime point of view, Ubuntu 13.10 �…

Hi there, I will be installing a new OS for v2.5 - Ubuntu being Airtime's OS of choice:Do we stay with 12.04.3 LTS or 13.10 for maximum support ?

Hi Thomas, in general, Liquidsoap relays streams with no problems here. We would like to find the root cause of your issues so that we can fix them. Could you supply URLs for the streams you are relaying please? Cheers! Daniel Hi Daniel, Here ar…

Airtime 2.5.0 Beta 1 Released!
Hi Thomas, very little software is bug free, the Flash player you linked to above crashed my Firefox :-) It is quite possible that some streaming formats can be played better in other players than Airtime does, we support Icecast-style input strea…

@Thomas Hackett suggest "Perhaps buffer overrun happens by design. Or perhaps it's another LS limitation that cannot be fixed. Airtime webstream links seem to be subject to many liquidsoap quirks which make them less functional than your …

Airtime 2.5.0 Beta 1 Released!
@Thomas+Hackett, I have tried to play webstream for 20 mins and I can't reproduce it. But I did see this overrun before, like 2.4.x. It used to happen during a long time show, for instance 24 hours webstream. I will run a 24 hours show to cat…

what said yours airtime logs ? /var/log/airtime Logs show nothing about this, I don't think (see attached). The player just shows Artist: Airtime, Title: offline.

You have a lot of solutions the best for me is fuse over ssh http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSHFS Would be interesting to hear if anyone has actually implemented this. I somehow doubt that Airtime's directory indexing can cope with fuse. Fuse…

I'm also looking for this. Music repository on a home file server connected to Airtime's front-end at some provider. Instead of or additionally to a home file server, connections to Amazon S3, Dropbox, Soundcloud & Co would also be we…

Playout cuts during drag & drop content :: [http:3] Buffer overrun: Dropping 0.01s.
Which version of Airtime do you have installed currently? 2.4.1? Yes I'm testing this on a fresh Ubuntu and fresh Airtime 2.4.1 (using apt-get). There are only a couple of songs in it so far. Best recommended OS for Airtime 2.4.1 is still Ubu…

hmm I had no problem adding content when I was testing this, but maybe I missed something. Were you adding playlists/files/webstreams? Usually webstreams, but happens with files too, can't delete anything either. Sometimes a single action succ…

Did you modify anything else when you were adding this line to the script? Maybe see if there is some message in /var/log/airtime/zendphp.log when you are having these errors on the now playing page. Nothing else was changed and editing resumes whe…

Rolling back the change, and restarting to test if it is connected ... Confirmed, I'm afraid there's a connection. Path: /usr/lib/airtime/pypo/bin/pypoliquidsoap.py # if current_stream_id != scheduled_now_webstream[0]: if int(current_s…

Really? It shouldn't affect the web interface at all this change, but I'll run a check. Maybe it's just another bug... do you get anything appearing in your javascript console? I'm not seeing anything move in the js console whe…

Hey, you must modify the file that's in "bin_dir" in /etc/airtime/pypo.cfg the default place is /usr/lib/airtime/pypo Hey Naomi, At first glance it works... short term test shows you've stopped the stream hick-ups :-) But this…

Not all stations will allow you to relay this way, but I can give it a try for the one I'm interested in. Relay via ShoutCast/IceCast is probably better than restreaming from a client.
