Don't know about realplayer, but I think you're on the right track for icecast. http://icecast.org/docs/icecast-2.2.0/icecast2_config_file.html Try lowering the queue-size and play with burst-on-connect and burst-size. There is almost always someone in #icecast on irc.freenode.net who could help you if you still have trouble. -- Eric Dantan Rzewnicki | Systems Administrator Technical Operations Division | Radio Free Asia 2025 M Street, NW | Washington, DC 20036 | 202-530-4900 CONFIDENTIAL COMMUNICATION This e-mail message is intended only for the use of the addressee and may contain information that is privileged and confidential.
