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

Good Morning, I have Icecast, Ezstream and Lame all working together to output audio from Asterisk. Currently using .mp3 format from the setup examples but not happy with the audio quality (has a metallic background sound to it).
Is there a way to output WAV file audio instead of MP3? 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?
Secondly, would anyone be willing to share an Icecast/Ezstream XML example that does not require the filename extensions (i.e http://localhost:8000/Filename.mp3)? I would like to just publish the basic URL and port (http://localhost:8000). We used to do this with a Windows Media Server before consolidating on one Linux server.
Thanks for any help.
