Re: [Otto-users] ices Reencoding?

[William H. <wh...@ma...>]

Hello, anyone still on this list?  Has development stopped on Otto?

As far as the DHS.org question, they don't need to support any forwarding of
ports.  They just translate the domain name (i.e.. sourceforge.net) into the
IP address (i.e.. 216.136.171.196).


Anyway, in reply to the question about re-encoding, I just got mine setup.
Basically I hacked ottojockeyd 's function sub playsong_ices.  I know zero
about Perl, so if there is something that can be done a better way, let me
know (I'm waiting for the 3rd edition of Learning Perl from O'Reilly so I
can start learning). The diff file is below.  I couldn't find a way of
getting the numbers into the command line other than creating variables for
them.  Is there a better way?

SUBJECT:  [Otto-users] ices Reencoding?





 Hi all,

thank you for the support with the ices streaming bit.

i've got another question, how do i tell ices to reencode all my mp3's tot
64kb
or
less, for streaming
the over internet?

I it in someway possible to set up an otto installation that is accesable
via
the
internet on an
dynamic ip?

f.exp . with DHS.org, of don't they support port forwarding?

thanx in advance

Koen
