Add this to your rpt.conf

outstreamcmd=/bin/sh,-c,/usr/bin/lame --preset cbr 16 -r -m m -s 8 --bitwidth 16 - - | /usr/bin/ezstream -qvc /etc/ezstream.xml


I put it above the [Morse....] section - for the node you want to broadcast
keep it all on one line btw -

***** Please Note ***** It has been a while since I used the instructions here but they should work on Cent OS 5.x
Do NOT just run the EZS script - it is only written as a guide -
attached is a .tgz file with everything you should need -
to decompress I put it in the /root folder
at the shell run - 
tar -xvhf ezs.tgz

That should extract the files to the ezs directory -
If you have any questions please let me know.

One issue with ezstream - this is apparently a known issue - for whatever reason it tends to crash from time to time - sometimes once in a day sometimes every week or 2 -

If you want to address the issue, the only resolution I have found is this -
add to your crontab -  crontab -e

*/30 * * * * (/root/killezstream > /dev/null 2>&1)


---- killezstream --- looks like this
# Kill ezstream to keep the connection - alive longer
kill -9 $(pgrep ezstream)&
----

One would think this would stop ezstream every 30 mins but it does not -
might have at most a 30 min down time - but it has worked well for me - Tried 
much shorter times, and that did not do well but feel free to experiment.

To start the stream need to run
asterisk -rx "module reload"
or reboot -

Hope this helps!

Hello my name is Loren I would like to set up a live audio stream from  my repeater to broadcastify if anyone has any suggestions on how or what i should do this would be appreciated. I would much rather if I could just take the audio from the repeater its self rather than setting up a secondary scanner then reroute it back to broadcastify.. Using Acid Linux Distro all normal install..  URI connected to two GM300s etc..

Any suggestions on this idea and if you have done this before please let me know how ya did this or what i need to do to get started 73's for now.
