I don't believe wav is a stream-able protocol. The metallic sound
is more an artifact of compression than the protocol used. You
might try bumping up the bitrate and/or adding a lowpass filter to
strip off the highest frequencies, this is commonly done with
stream encoders. I've added a lowpass filter to remove PL. I
imagine you could do high pass the same way. Here's what I use.<br>
<br>
outstreamcmd=/bin/sh,-c,/usr/bin/lame --preset cbr 24 --highpass 0.2
-r -m m -s 8 --bitwidth 16 - - | /usr/bin/ezstream -c
/etc/ezstream.xml<br>

I understand. Some people just don't like a "metallic sound".
I'm not sure what other options<br>
are readily available. Certainly if you want more of a "dubstep"
sound, perhaps you should<br>
pipe the stream through something like "zcat". That would
certainly make it more "dubstep"-like. :-)<br>
<br>
Seriously, I don't think any of those streaming server things
will accept anything other then mp3 (or ogg)<br>
Believe me, it was *not* done by any of my choice (being that
mp3 is certainly *not* my favorite<br>
codec for ANYTHING!).<br>

I've tried different settings for LAME but it doesn't help. I
know that Asterisk has great audio written to the log files,
so why can't I use this instead of piping through Lame?<br>

I would like to just publish the basic URL and port
(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://localhost:8000">http://localhost:8000</a>). We used to do this with a Windows
Media Server before consolidating on one Linux server.<br>
