[PD] oggcast~: Icecast2 returns 404

[Richard Lewis]

Hi there,

This may not be the right place for this problem, but:

I've written a simple (my first!) pd patch which mixes several sound sources 
together using amplitudes set by netreceive~ and sends the result to oggcast~

In development, I tested the patch using dac~ and the result is correct.

However, when I replaced dac~ with oggcast~ I got problems. Connecting to the 
Icecast server seems to be fine, pd says this:

oggcast~: ogg/vorbis streaming client version 0.2k, written by Olaf Matthes
oggcast~: set buffer to 512k bytes
oggcast~: encoding 2 channels @ 44100 Hz

And I've given oggcast~ the following messages:

passwd *****
server 1
connect localhost soundscape0.ogg 8000
vbr 44100 2 0.6
TITLE soundscape0

But when I point my ogg client to the stream I get no sound. The Icecast logs 
say this:

access.log:
127.0.0.1 - - [10/Jul/2006:14:39:09 +0100] "GET /soundscape0.ogg HTTP/1.1" 404 
106 "-" "aRts/1.5.3" 0

error.log:
[2006-07-10  14:39:09] INFO fserve/fserve_client_create checking for 
file /soundscape0.ogg (/usr/share/icecast2/web/soundscape0.ogg)
[2006-07-10  14:39:09] WARN fserve/fserve_client_create req for 
file "/usr/share/icecast2/web/soundscape0.ogg" No such file or directory

I've tried adding a mountpoint called "/soundscape0.ogg" to Icecast but it 
doesn't seem to make any difference.

Does anyone know why Icecast can't find the ogg stream sent to it by pd?

Setup:
OS: Debian GNU/Linux "unstable"
PD: 0.39-2
pd-externals: 00.20040625-4 [from Debian stable]
Icecast: 2.3.1

Cheers,
Richard
