The kids (and me too) are going to listen to triplej hottest 100 today and tomorrow, and I was thinking I should set up something on my server so they can stream it over the lan from a single internet feed rather than all streaming over the internet separately. A regular radio won't work if they are using headphones on their computers playing games etc as well. Time shifting would be neat too but not a requirement. Has anyone done this before? I did years ago but hopefully there is a single tool that is easy to set up these days? Thanks James

You can just rock an icecast setup. http://www.icecast.org/ -Matt

I think you typoed “Classic 100 Countdown”, so I’ll assume you actually meant the Classic FM stream: [server ~ ]$ vlc -I dummy \ http://www.abc.net.au/res/streaming/audio/mp3/classic_fm.pls \ --sout '#std{access=http,dst=[::]:8080,mux=raw}' [client ~ ]$ vlc http://[2001:db8::1]:8080

Definitely TripleJ Hottest 100 (hottest 100 songs of last 20 years as voted by listeners). Re-living some of my angsty teenage years :) They played 100-51 yesterday, and 50-1 starting today at midday. I set up icecast and it seems to do the trick. I would have liked to have plumbed it in to mythtv and I think that would have worked except my laptop runs Windows and while MythTV works quite well on there for watching recorded programs (and live tv sometimes when it's in the right mood) not many of the extras work properly. Having done that, the kids just sat in the loungeroom and listened to it on the radio anyway... even if the quality was pretty sucky. Thanks James
