Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Pipe Squeezelite to Icecast
squeezelite is going to take any input and turn it into pcm uncompressed 16 bit audio. (flac/mp3/ogg/etc) ICES (not icecast) is going to read that and send ONLY ogg-vorbis upstream. The upstream either needs to deal with this, or you need to use a different tool. In my usecase Azuracast is my receiver, and accepts ogg-vorbis and re-encodes to mp3. If you need something other than ogg-vorbis streamed out of squeezelite, you can't use ICES, you need another tool that accepts STDIN as input. Darkice appears to send mp3 data, but my metadata update script is only going to push metadata via ICES.

Instead of your metadata script which gave me different results (i must be doing something wrong), someone gave me an ncat/lua script that works also.

Connected to device Radio.monitor (7, not suspended). I'd also suggest that you enable logging, "lock-down" squeezelite-pulse to 44100Hz, tell the server that squeezelite support a higher sample rate so it doesn't resample and then have squeezelite resample any stream that is not 44100. You might also need to daemonize (run it in the background) squeezelite using the -z option. squeezelite -d all=debug -f squeezelite.log -Z 384000 -r 44100-44100 -u E You can play the pcm file using aplay to confirm.

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Pipe Squeezelite to Icecast
You can specify the LMS server from squeezelite command line if it isn't showing up, obviously update the ip address to your server ip. Code: squeezelite -s 192.168.0.100 -o Radio When you run ICES it will generate the PID file, as long as you have it specified in the ICES config file. Then your metadata script will grab it. I'm running ICES2.0.3, so yes, ICES2 is the correct one. If running "PAREC" by itself doesn't do anything, then ICES won't be able to send any sound. PAREC by default will pull from the pulse-audio and send PCM data out STDOUT onto your terminal window if you just run it without "piping" it to ICES. Make sure that squeezelite is working, and you are sending audio there (there will be no sound, but LMS will show you playing).

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Pipe Squeezelite to Icecast
Here's what's working right now for me, including metadata updates to an
Azuracast radio. It's slightly above "hack" status, but appears to be
working. I get really small pops every now and again, and I haven't
narrowed it down to metadata updates, or something with buffering, or
just the inherent issues with flac->pcm->ogg->mp3 workflow here. You
can listen at https://rad10x.com/
To get it working, configure your ices.conf with the delta below. Save
the metadata-update-script.sh, make it executable, and just run it in
the background, it doesn't output anything normally. Then setup the
pulseaudio, squeezelite, and parec piped to ices. Queue music up and
your should see things operating. The script to do the metadata does
no error checking, so permissions, etc, may throw it off. But it should
be pretty clear what it's doing. I didn't bother getting rid of the
quotes in the Title/Artist, that's for the next iteration.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
ices-conf.xml file. You need to make sure your PID file matches the
Metatdata update script below, and your input needs a file to read
metadata from. This is not the complete config, just the items you need
to ensure you have. Update the file names as needed.
Code:
/home/jukebox/ices.pid
stdinpcm
44100
2
1
/home/jukebox/metadata.txt
Metadata Update bash script.
MAC needs to updated to the MAC address of the squeezebox client (you
can look at the LMS Settings->Information Tab to find it.
METATIME is how often to scan for metadata updates.
ICESPID is the pid file written, so we can send the USR1 signal to
retransmit the metadata.
METAFILE needs to match the ICES.CONF file above.
METATEMP is just used for temporary caching, we only update metadata on
song changes.
Code:
#!/bin/bash
LMSIP=127.0.0.1
MAC=10:bf:48:7b:36:c3
METATIME=5
ICESPID=/home/jukebox/ices.pid
METAFILE=/home/jukebox/metadata.txt
METATEMP=/home/jukebox/metatemp.txt
while [ 1 ]
do
command='{"id": 1, "method": "slim.request", "params":["'$MAC'", ["'artist'",
"'?'"]]}'

Pulse Radio Setup - Squeezelite outputs audio to "Radio" channel, and
PAREC pulls PCM from it:
Code:
#Startup Pulseaudio
pulseaudio --start
#Create the Radio "sink"
pactl load-module module-null-sink sink_name=Radio
sink_properties="device.description='Radio'"
#Run squeezelite, ensure that you have the pulse audio version
squeezelite -o Radio
#Run the metadata-update.sh script in the background (the script above)./m
./metadata-update.sh &

Here's something I hacked together a while back. Only requirement is

Re: [SlimDevices: Plugins] Pipe Squeezelite to Icecast
For some reason my attempt at sending "macaddr title ?" in json wasn't working, while sending other commands are. I assume i'm mis-formatting something in my json, any pointers?

[SlimDevices: Plugins] Pipe Squeezelite to Icecast
Can anyone help? Im looking for a way of piping Squeezelite output to an Icecast server. I can do it by using a players audio output into the input of the Icecast server via Liquidsoap but Im looking for a method of doing it without going analogue at any stage. I can do it using Squeezelite and an encoder on a Windows PC so there must be a way in Linux (Centos 8) preferably not using any gui. Anyone?
