This application is being developed in the hope to provide the Free Software community a user friendly tool for network audio streaming, making life easier for indypendent free speech radios wanting to stream via http on icecast servers. MuSE is an application for mixing, encoding, and network streaming of sound: it can transmit an audio signal by mixing together sound taken from files or also network, recursively remixing more MuSE streams. MuSE can simultaneously mix up to 6 encoded audio bitstreams (from files or network, ogg, mp3, wav and other common sound formats), plus an input signal from microphone. MuSE offers an intuitive interface to be operated in realtime, while it can also run slick from the Unix commandline. ***** Supported servers: You can use MuSE to stream both MP3 or Ogg/Vorbis sound format to a broadcast server, which means that for doing an online radio you still need to setup yours, or find one that let you stream. Such servers can be seen like antennas which amplify your signal and redistribute it to listeners. there are free software implementations of such technology! the ones supported by MuSE are: * Icecast2 - http://icecast.org - can stream OGG & MP3 * Litestream - http://litestream.org - can stream MP3 * Darwin - http://developer.apple.com/darwin/projects/streaming * Shoutcast - http://shoutcast.com - non free, runs on win32 * various other broadcast servers streaming audio over http... ***** Supported players: MuSE streams via http, it doesn't uses multicast technology, nor RTP/RTSP, to have the widest possible range of compatible players. You can listen audio produced by MuSE from almost every personal computer and operating system, using one or more of the following: * xmms - http://www.xmms.org - for GNU/Linux, *BSD, Sun, etc. * mpg123 - http://www.mpg123.de - for various UNIX systems * itunes - http://www.apple.com/itunes - on MacOSX * zinf - http://www.zinf.org - on GNU/Linux and Win32 * winamp - http://www.winamp.com - on all Win platforms * mplayer - http://www.mplayerhq.hu - on all platforms * videolan - http://www.videolan.org - on all platforms * handeld devices and usb players supporting Ogg and Mp3 * and... MuSE itself! ;) Author: David W. Durham
