Hello all,
I hope someone can help me out here, as this is a real stickler of a
problem.
I want to simulcast (live stream via mp3) 4 NOAA Weather Radio stations
that are broadcast locally. Fine...I install Icecast and Darkice on all 4
machines. 3 of the machines are identical: using a SB Live! 5.1 sound card
on a P4 3 ghz machine and 1.5 GB of RAM, all is well, using an ASUS
motherboard from SW Technologies. The streaming works fine on all 3
machines.
But a 4th machine is different. It has only 512 MB of RAM, comes from HP,
and uses an HDA Intel, Chip: Realtek ALC260 sound card. I can hear the
audio from the internal speaker when I crank it using alsamixer (and I
did check the inputs on alsamixer; the radio is connected to the
microphone jack, and the occasional skipping audio I get indicates that
part is configured OK). Using the same settings as the other
machines, the audio either "skips" or doesn't come across at all. I am
wondering:
Is it the Intel sound card? Should I get a new SB Live! card?
Is it because I only have 512 MB of RAM?
Is it something else?
Icecast error logs show no errors. Access logs show normal (x's are in
place of IP's):
127.0.0.1 - - [15/Aug/2006:10:59:19 -0500] "SOURCE /wx13 HTTP/1.0"

200 2084831 "-" "NSPlayer/11.0.5358.4827 WMFSDK/11.0" 253
Comments? Any help greatly appreciated. Stumped...
