Shoutcast and PS3

Post by involver »

Hi Bubba friends :lol:

Has anyone tried, or figured out a way to have Bubba serve up shoutcast channels to a mediaplayer like, say a PS3?

Would be most usefull to have shoutcast channels as 'bookmarks' of sorts, to be available on a PS3 (which natively doesn't support shoutcast, but does streaming MP3)

Grtz!

I was wondering about shoutcast too, has anyone installed shoutcast on bubba?

It seems there are people who are using it:

There's also Icecast, a free program which supposedly does the same. Unfortunately it seems like Icecast is not in the stable depositories for Debian*, so installing it through apt-get seems out of the question. Installing a streaming music server like shoutcast will be one of the first things I'd like to try when I receive my Bubba (ordered one last thursday)
*: nor is Shoutcast by the way...

When you have shoutcast/icecast running, you can basically use a variety of players to listen to the stream; whether it's a PS3, WinAmp, xmms... Right?
