icecast

What are the steps and means of capturing microphone audio stream through HTML5 / Javascript (no flash) and then sending it to an already set up icecast server? The solution must be solely browser/web-based, no additional software. The server is on Rails 5.0.0.1. Where should I start? I'm struggling to find any relevant info online as everything talks about uploading/recording audio files as complete files, not streams. Brad The solution must be solely browser/web-based, no additional software. That's not possible at the moment, because there is no way to make a streaming HTTP PUT request .

I am developing the client for the icecast server (www.icecast.org). Can anybody tell me, what is the format they are using for streaming the content? I was looking on their pages, but there is no information about the stream format at all. I have then checked the Wireshark trace and due to my understanding the format of the audio data I am receiving within the 200 OK response to the GET request it is just a plain binary audio data without any metadata included, so comparing to the SHOUTcast or HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) it is relative simple approach. Is that right? Any experience with it?

Is it possible to play a shoutcast/icecast stream using HTML5? If so, how should I implement it? Add a semicolon to the end of the http request. It IS the protocol set forth by shoutcast to override it's browser detection. Like this: <audio controls src="http://shoutcast.internet-radio.org.uk:10272/;"></audio> There is a big problem with SHOUTcast, which I suspect is responsible for it not working even in Chrome which is supposed to support MP3. SHOUTcast can serve three different types of response: a native-SHOUTcast “ICY” protocol streaming audio response. It decides to do this if the player

I want to provide audio data into SHOUTcast or Icecast servers without using their own broadcaster, since i will be using this on various platforms including mobile. I need protocol descriptions, open source projects, or samples to be able to send audio data (from mic or file) using Objective-C, C or C++ to SHOUTcast and Icecast servers. Where can I find the information needed to build a proper SHOUTcast/Icecast source client? Comment: It's about time someone makes a SHOUTcast source client for mobile. I've been needing this for a while, but don't have time to build it, so kudos to you. Please
