I asked because of this from their FAQ[0]:
What is Icecast, the program?
Icecast is a streaming server, which can stream audio (and video) to listeners/viewers. It supports Ogg (Vorbis, Theora), Opus, FLAC and WebM (VP8/VP9), nonfree codecs/formats like MP4 (H.264, MPEG4), M4A, NSV, AAC and MP3 might work, but we do not officially support those.
EDIT: is your Java code for video streaming somewhere? I'm interested in streaming my Raspberry Pi camera as all existing solutions don't satisfy me at the moment.

- krotik 10y agoI am currently travelling but once I have a stable connection I can upload it. If you just want streaming (unidirectional) then you could just write a simple server which streams the byte stream from the camera. I remember one of my colleagues at work did this for our foos table scoring system. I suspect this is also what Icecast does. I went through the pain of RTMP because I wanted support for seeking which requires bidirectional communication.
- krotik 10y agoHi, I managed now to dig out my Java code. It is here: http://devt.de/tmp/rtmp_example.zip http://devt.de/tmp/rtmp_example.zip It is just an experiment so not much documentation and/or unit tests. I hope it helps.
