DarkIce is an IceCast, IceCast2 and ShoutCast live audio streamer. It takes audio input from a sound card, encodes it into mp3 and/or Ogg Vorbis, and sends the mp3 stream to one or more IceCast and/or ShoutCast servers, the Ogg Vorbis stream to one or more IceCast2 servers. DarkIce uses lame as a shared object as its mp3 encoder, and the Ogg Vorbis as its Ogg Vorbis encoder. NOTE: The Debian version of DarkIce is only compiled with Ogg Vorbis support due to patent reasons and will therefore only work with IceCast2 servers!
