butt Description
butt is a Linux tool that grabs audio data from your sound card. butt stands for broadcast using this tool and is a Linux tool that grabs audio data from your sound card (line-in, CD, wave, etc.), encodes the PCM data into MP3, and sends it to a streaming server (only Shoutcast is currently supported).Streaming:You can change the audio settings (bitrate, channels) while you are streaming.Cause butt isn't a multithreaded application, the selectionof a new bitrate shouldn't take more than a few secs.Otherwise the server may disconnect you, because it doesn't receive any data while you are looking for a new bitrate.Recording:Since version 0.1.1 butt is able to record and stream simultaneously - in diffrent bitrates.For example you can stream with 96kbit and record with 192kbit.What's New in This Release:· dB values were added to the vu-meter.· The network backend uses non-blocking sockets.· This prevents butt from hanging when unexpected network errors occur.· The songname can be updated from a textfile.· Support for more samplerates has been added.· A crash when connecting to icecacst server on Mac OS 10.4 has been fixed.· A crash when changing the server type from shoutcast to icecast has been fixed.· Samplerate selection problems have been fixed.
