sc_trans playing 2x speed
For some reason no matter how I encode the files, sc_trans keeps streaming them to the server in doublespeed. Here is the link to the stream:
http://www.truthstream.org:9420/listen.m3u?src=0
and here is a link to one of the songs to be streamed (so you can see how it is encoded):
http://www.truthstream.org/radio/TruthT ... geddon.mp3
here is my sc_trans.conf:
; Sample sc_trans/0.35-j config file
; j.frankel 12/05/00
; t.pepper 10/31/00
; (relays not supported, yo)
;
; sc_trans operates in one of two modes, either reading mp3s off disk, decoding,
; re-encoding, and then broadcasting them, or relaying from a shoutcast server,
; transcoding to a lower bitrate, and broadcasting to a new server.
; sc_trans accepts the following signals:
; HUP - flush logfiles (close and reopen) -- will make console logging stop
; WINCH - jump to next song
; USR1 - reload playlist off disk (will not interrupt current playing stream)
; USR2 - toggle shuffle on/off
; TERM - normal sc_trans shutdown (clean)
; PlaylistFile (required EVEN IF RELAYING) - playlist file (to create, use
; find /path/to/mp3/directory -type f -name \"*.mp3\" > playlist_filename.lst
PlaylistFile=example.lst

sounds like the sample rate isn't converting correctly or that it is trying to translate a mono stream to stereo and doing it incorrectly. Try re-encoding the song to the same sample rate and channel setting as the actual stream.
BTW I had nothing to do with the sc_trans project, this is a Nullsoft tool, so I am moving this to the Audio Streaming forum.

i thought i did...
what program do you suggest I use to encode?
I tried gxtranscoder 2 and I got the double speed after encoding (instead of now where it encodes fine but streams at 2x)...
these files I converted with audacity - I did 64kbps stereo 22050 sample rate - if you download the sample file i provided and go to its properties it says:
Bitrate: 64kbps
Channels: 2(stereo)
Audio Sample Rate: 22kHz
Whats weird is no matter what I choose as a sample rate - 44k, even 88k - it ALWAYS encodes at 22k.

also...
i guess a sort of related question - are there any other audio sources that you guys would suggest besides sc_trans_linux? Im running on a red hat virtual dedicated server with full shell root access . Im messing around with ices, though trying to figure out how to compile...apparently I have to configure some file - Im guessing one of the ones in the conf directory...
are there any other source clients to use with linux?
