Check out my friend's ShoutCast server

[KingNothing]

He's curious how many concurrent streams he can serve before his computer starts slowing down.

128 KBps

48 KBps

..listening..

sounds good, no skipping..

 

[VBboy]

Hmm, it rebuffered the stream a few times. I'm on cable.

 

[KingNothing]

bump, he's only got 1 user! AT Effect!

 

[Anubis]

im on it now and its skippin a lil.

actually its skipping alot now

 

[FortFunFoSho]

Uhh can I request some mad techno beats!

 

[KingNothing]

It's a 128KBps stream so if it's skipping it's probably bad hops inbetween and/or a lack of bandwith on your part.

When I hosted the superbowl commercials on my FTP I hit ~250KBps when I had 16 users connected, so pushing out 128KBps isn't a problem from our end. Our dorm has a 6MBit connection.

 

[KingNothing]

New server set up, 48KBps

*Shrug* I downloaded a 128KBps version of the song playing and compared it to what I was getting from his server and it sounded the same.

 

[illusion88]

yeah... sounds fine for 128k

 

[speed01]

It rebuffered 10 times in 2 minutes for me....

Speed

 

[dude8604]

It pauses for about 1 second every 6 seconds. I'm on cable.

I am on a highly-optimized Cable (400 KB download from the Web and FTP), so if I can't hit a puny 128 kbps, it's NOT on my side Perhaps his 286 is drowning in concurrent requests
