<h1 id="icecast-250-documentation">Icecast 2.5.0 Documentation</h1>
<p>Icecast is a streaming media server which currently supports Ogg Vorbis and MP3 audio streams.
It can be used to create an Internet radio station or a privately running jukebox and many
things in between. It is very versatile in that new formats can be added relatively easily
and supports open standards for commuincation and interaction.</p>
<p>Icecast is distributed under the GNU GPL, version 2. A copy of this license is included with
this software in the COPYING file.</p>
<p>There are two major parts to most streaming media servers: The component providing the
content (what we call source clients) and the component which is responsible for serving that
content to listeners (this is the function of Icecast).</p>
<h1 id="prerequisites">Prerequisites</h1>
<p>Icecast requires the following packages:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="http://xmlsoft.org/downloads.html">libxml2</a></li>
<li><a href="http://xmlsoft.org/XSLT/downloads.html">libxslt</a></li>
<li><a href="http://curl.haxx.se/download.html">curl</a> Version >= 7.10</li>
<li><a href="http://www.vorbis.com/files">libogg/libvorbis</a> Version >= 1.0</li>
<li><a href="https://www.openssl.org/source/">OpenSSL</a> (Optional, enable if SSL support is desired)</li>
</ul>
<h1 id="what-platforms-are-supported">What platforms are supported?</h1>

</ul>
<h1 id="buildinstall">Build/Install</h1>
<p>To build Icecast on a Unix platform, perform the following:</p>
<p>Run</p>
<pre><code>./configure
make
make install
</code></pre>
<p>to build and install this release.</p>
<p>A sample config file will be placed in <code>/usr/local/etc</code> (on UNIX) or in the current working
directory (on Win32) and is called <code>icecast.xml</code>.</p>
<p>Documentation for Icecast is available in the doc directory, by viewing <code>doc/index.html</code> in a
browser.</p>
<h1 id="where-do-i-go-for-questions">Where do I go for questions?</h1>
