Hi, The darkice problems are likely a mix of things. Its very likely that the flakiness was entirely my own fault. To illustrate my setup is as follows [Broadcast Chain Presented on an Audio Distributer Amp] -> Sound Card of Some description -> PC running JACK -> Darkice -> Icecast on the s

I was using a sound card with ALSA, but it's not needed. I am currently running in dummy mode and find the same results either way. I had initially tried darkice a couple of years ago but was never able to get it working in SHOUTcast mode. As I recall, Icecast worked fine. Live365 requires a SH
