I can push this sound to my PC using the "Line In", and from there, I'd like to setup a streaming media server that will broadcast that to any other computer (or device, like an iPhone) that I want. <br> <br> This wouldn't be for public consumption, but instead just for my own use, so bandwidth isn't a huge issue. I just need something reliable. I've been looking at Shoutcast and WinAmp, but I can't seem to get it working. Anyone with expertise on this is welcomed. post:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.101649 Sun, 14 Sep 2008 06:53:46 -0800 sav2880 media server streaming MP3 radio http://ask.metafilter.com/101649/How-to-stream-a-line-in-input-throughout-my-house-as-a-streaming-media-server#1475641 I think I can help you with this... look up <a href="http://ustream.tv">ustream.tv</a>. Uses flash and you can stream audio only or audio and video. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.101649-1475641 Sun, 14 Sep 2008 07:46:53 -0800 acro http://ask.metafilter.com/101649/How-to-stream-a-line-in-input-throughout-my-house-as-a-streaming-media-server#1475721 I think <a href="http://www.oddsock.org/tools/edcast/">edcast </a>(formerly oddcast) is easier to set up and use than Shoutcast. comment:ask.metafilter.com,2008:site.101649-1475721 Sun, 14 Sep 2008 10:05:37 -0800 rhizome
