Here at our college we have a radio station that streams to the internet and we have been running a windows computer that encodes an incoming audio signal to the computer and outputs it to a specific network address which gets picked up on our network to the be pushed out onto the internet.

Lately the encoder keeps crapping out everyday so I'm trying to find a free OS X encoder that will take it's place to see if it will do a better job and not crap out all the time.

Any ideas?

Tks,

I have access to OS X servers and I know they will do audio stream through QuickTime Streaming, but I do believe it will not take a input audio signal, but rather only files?

Would this help?

Apple - QuickTime - QuickTime Broadcaster

That's what I tried as we have an Xserve to use, but this software does not stream the audio in a format that windows media player can use.
I needed something that was user friendly for Windows and OS X. QuickTime Broadcaster seemed to only want to open the stream with QT.

Ended up getting and now using "NiceCast" so now we have our college radio station working @ NSCC

Thanks,

Thanks,

It always bugs me when I want to help and it doesn't turn out that way.

But, the bottom line is that you got it working!

That makes me feel better!
