<P>First : <BR> we get a lot of cliking
<BR> where do you think it come from [lame ?]</P></BLOCKQUOTE>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>first, i suspect some bandwidth
problems.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>lame is not that CPU-intensive</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>but you can check this with a 'top'
command</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>( check CPU status ).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>to find the bottleneck,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>several actions might be taken :</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>a/ emit your stream towards a machine on your
LAN,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>do clicks still happen ??</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>b/ lower mpeg quality until clicks
disappear.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>especially, lower bitrate and increase quality
factor</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>( higher quality parameters are LOWER quality in
fact ).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>let's try : "mpeg 8000 8 2
9"</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>which is the lowest quality.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>also, check that pd is running with the -rt
flag.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>let me know the results of all these
actions.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>PS : i've never tested shoutcast on the net, only
on a LAN.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>no noticeable clicks.</FONT></DIV></BODY></HTML>
