Software :: Instantly Audio Streaming To Other Computers (including Windows)?
Dec 11, 2009
I am looking for some easy to use cross-platform audio software that can send live audio from my Windows XP PC to other computers (laptop/netbook/MID) in the network. Mine MID is Meamo Linux device. When I mean audio, I talking about whatever is coming out mine PC sound card at any point (music, video's audio, XP sounds clicks, etc). Also, the audio MUST BE live, aka no delay between between computer.Basically, the idea to is to "send/stream" audio to other PC over wifi/network so all the sounds are sync. Sort of like a whole house audio system, but one that uses computers so I don't need to buy any additional equipment. Also, it would be nice if the client software worked on other OS, like Linux.I have been looking some software solutions with no luck. I tried UPnp (shoutcast/Icecast) servers, however all of them have 1 Sec to 10 second of delay.Again, I am looking for something instant.I have also looked at pulse audio, however the setup seem too complicated for Windows especially.

I am fed up of listening to my (Windows XP) gaming computer through headphones so I want to get it hooked to the stereo.
Rather than use a heck of a lot of wire, I can sit my Ubuntu 9.10 netbook on top of the stereo and stream the audio across WiFi.
So, ideally what I am after is something to capture the outgoing audio on the Windows computer, stream it across the wifi to the Ubuntu netbook and finally play it through the speakers.

I have configured PulseAudio with an MPD system-wide as I want to run PulseAudio without an X-Window Server environment, as I'm going to let my netbook act as a "wireless speaker" for espeak to speak out; thus, minimizing the expense of getting a "whole-apartment audio equipment." This is something that I can figure this out, as I have configured PulseAudio to act as a sender by having a separate RTP stream when I configure it in a VNC client.
Plus, I want my Windows Vista 64-Bit machine to receive the output from PulseAudio. I did download the Windows version of PulseAudio from Cendio, but I have problems getting PulseAudio to work, even if I added load-module module-rtp-recv to default.pa in the PulseAudio directory that I installed in PulseAudio directory. I get error after error messages when I run pulseaudio.exe, so it looks to me that it's not going to work anyway.
So I deleted the entire PulseAudio directory. It said something about entropy that I did not know anything about it. So anyway, is there some sort of a server program that listens to PulseAudio output and then send that audio to the client? The server program in the Ubuntu Server (that I plan to use as a sender) must be able to run without an X-Window environment. Is this possible?
I tried to do a search when it comes to streaming audio from Linux to Windows, but the Google search result came up with "Streaming audio/sound from Windows to Linux" which did not turn out very well for me. As a result, I have no luck with doing a Google search for what I'm looking for. In short, is there some kind of daemon that listens for audio and distribute the sound to Windows? It will be for my internal network only.

I have two machines on a local area network (xp box and xubuntu box) and I want audio from both machines to be played from the same set of speakers. The problem is, the xubuntu machine doesn't have any sound output. There is no onboard sound card and all expansion slots are pci-x, so short of buying a pci-x sound card my only option for playing sound is to route audio through LAN to my xp computer.
I already have a program that will let me play music on one computer from another's speakers, but I am trying to set up a stream so that games and internet sound can be heard. Is it possible for me to do this?

i have opensuse 11.3 (64-bit) installed. kde version. my sound card is a creative labs sound blaster x-fi xtreme audio, pcie interface. i am able to listen to cd music without any problems but i am unable to get streaming audio when i visit any internet radio site, videos, yahoo!tv, etc. etc. for instance, when i visit videos, the video part is ok but i cannot hear anything through the speakers. something similar happens when for instance i go to [url] and select any of the music channels. a new window pops up but the music never even starts to stream.
i know for a fact that both sound card and speakers work fine because i've tested them with windows xp. so there must be some setting in opensuse that i've missed. the weird part is that i can listen to music cds without any problems...

I installed Ubuntu 10.04 LTS x64 on my laptop about a month back and I have been very, very pleased with its maturity and stability. However, I have seem to have hit a snag with my ventures into desktop Linux: I also dual-boot Windows 7 Professional x64, and it seems that every time I run Ubuntu 10.04, Windows 7 will immediately bluescreen on boot, reboot, and then be fine. I'm not sure what kind of harm this could be doing to the system, but it strikes me as very odd, and it's something I would like to resolve.
I have suspected this may have to do with mounting NTFS drives under Ubuntu, because my Windows OS and all of my media is stored on NTFS partitions. Needless to say, I would really rather not change this, because NTFS seems to be one of the few filesystems with large-file-support that will run with ease under Windows and Linux.
I have tried removing my main Windows 7 OS partition from the fstab in Ubuntu to see if that made any difference, but the problem persists. Could a secondary NTFS media partition mounted in Ubuntu really cause these sort of issues?

Most applications including flash, znes, have a audio delay about 3 seconds I'm not very experienced with Ubuntu so try not to talk over my head, I'm running on the latest version available from the site desktop version and my computer setup is as follows.
Dell Dimension 3000
Processor: Intel(R) Celeron(R) 2.53 GHz
80 Gb Harddrive with at least 20gb free
I don't really know where else to find information about this system, so if you need additional information you will need to direct me how to find it.

I wanted to auto mount one of my drives at the startup so I installed PySDM. After that every time I login to Ubuntu every single drive is mounted with a new name, for example one of my drives was located at /media/Local Disk and now it's /media/sda6, so every link to that drive including my audio library is gone. I unchecked the 'auto-mount at startup' option in PySDM and it didn't solve anything, I even uninstall PySDM and it everything is mounted as soon as Ubuntu starts up. The funny thing is there is a 10GB recovery drive on my hard disk that was never visible in Ubuntu and I was happy with that, but now it is mounted on startup too, with the name of sda1. What should I do?

I've tried every how-to I can find! If it simply not possible to stream audio with pulseaudio?Flumotion says all audio devices are busy, no matter what i do!My perfered method would be icecast with pulse, but I can't get it to work! Icecast is no problem but the streams are always blank! The only suitable method I can find is using gst:
Any suggestion? Even better would be a audio streaming distro as I have a dedicated pc, but I'm having no luck with that also.

Using Iceweasel on Gnome GUI the streaming audio does not work. Just kind of hangs when the Iceweasel player window opens. It used to work on this machine. I am all updated.Also, is there a way to play the streams that like to open their own players on the Movie Player? I have had best luck playing streams on the Movie Player in the past.

I listen to streaming audio a lot. All types of music, news, talk radio, etc.I have found that the Totem movie player is the most reliable player. Rythmbox is good too but seams to drop the streams a little more that Totem. The main problem with Totem is that I find the play list kind of clunky to use.
Q1: Are there better players for streaming audio?
A lot of radio stations now open in there own "players". I don't like all of the advertisements and other bandwidth eating crap in these "players".
Q2: Is there a way to get the URL of the stream from one of these "players" and play it on Totem or Rythmbox?

I want to use Ubuntu, but I'd like to listen to my favourite audio stream like I do for Windows.I have installed Audacious from the Synaptic Package Manager when I found out that my new Ubuntu installation didn't install an audio device as part of its installation, and then I installed something called 'Xine' as prompted when,after I went to the home-page of my audio source,I discovered that I needed to install some extra 'codecs'.However, I still cannot get the familiar noise that surrounds me when I'm working within Windows to play on Ubuntu. No noise is produced. What's going on?

Use Freecorder in Win7 to record streaming audio and save it as an mp3. Anyone know of a similar program for Ubuntu 10.04? Tried Sound Recorder but I guess that's just for a microphone. Streamripper only seems to work on ShoutCast.

I used to be able to do so with Windows, but not on Ubuntu. I tried everything, even the Sound recorder, and that doesn't work, either. The sound recorder barely registers the audio and Audacity just will not work no matter what I try.

I haven't gotten an answer from Second Life fora so I thought I'd ask here. I'm using Ubuntu (lucid) x86_64. Totem, Rhythmbox etc all work correctly but I fail to get any streaming audio from any of the Second Life clients I've tried. In some cases I can copy the media url into rhythmbox and run the sound from there but in most cases the url is "hidden".

I need my Ubuntu box to play an http audio stream on boot. It must heedlessly attempt to reconnect to the audio stream no matter how many network errors I may or may not have.
Currently using VLC on boot with the commands: -loop -http-reconnect
VLC works fine for the first little while, but after a day or two, it doesn't try to reconnect enough to meet my needs.

I was wondering if anyone knew of any [client] software that takes an audio stream from an input - the mic - samples it, optionally codes it with a codec, and then packetize it to send over the network to an IP address and port number.And on the same machine and other machines can be [server] software listening on a port that would take any packets arriving on that port from another IP address, depacketize it, optionally decode it, and output it - to the speaker.
I'm trying to allow voice over a MANET / Mesh network in a cave, with no outside connection, so can't rely on logging in to other nets or server based VoIP.

Is there any way in Debian to record streaming audio from the soundcard, after it has been decoded by a player or a browser?
Of course, the best way to record streaming audio is to grab the stream directly, but with emerging technologies, before the stream grabbers catch up, it can be difficult or impossible to directly grab a stream. The Akamai HDS format is a good example of this. The fragment packets are hard to grab individually and hard to combine. Something like [URL] .... didn't work for me.
Furthermore, as technology advances, stream grab techniques will have to play catchup.
But what normally works is capture from the soundcard, after the stream has been decoded by the player or browser. I have used Total Recorder [URL] .... on windows to do this for many years.
Is there a debian package that can capture sound from the soundcard, and save it as mp3 or ogg? And will this package run on the raspberry pi?

I want to record some streaming internet radio talk shows and music performances on NPR, and I'm wondering what my options are in Ubuntu. I'm looking for something that can output high quality lossless files in several formats, hopefully including mp3 and ogg.

Got my system's audio up, but I'm having a real problem keeping streaming audio going, either in VLC or in the default movie player thing.It'll go for a while and then just stop. I guess it's having a problem with "resume" function or buffering.Any thoughts on this? I'm not having that problem with VLC in XP on the same connection.

Have any of the main music streaming sites (ex. Pandora, Rhapsody, Grooveshark, etc.) made it possible to stream audio without using flash, (other than via iPhone apps)? Have any of them made any strides with regard to implementing html5 functionality?
I know html5 will make more options available for streaming audio over the web, but I have not seen or used html5 for anything yet. The only method that I know of for streaming audio without flash, although I haven't tried it, is via html5 video on ...... This is certainly a suboptimal method for streaming music since the audio quality cannot be guaranteed and is likely mediocre. Nonetheless, I've heard that it works. Also, as a second unrelated question, are there any open source flash players that you guys have used to stream audio from these music sites? I tried a group of different players like Gnash about 6 months ago and failed to stream Pandora or Grooveshark.

running ubuntu 8.04 dual boot with windows- need windows for avery label program, ibm via voice and access data base .chose 8.04 because of long term support. firefox is now unstable and does not do streaming video ' audio.[ustream in particular and others] usually i get the video but not the audio. sometimes the fox just closes and i can open it on the second try- sometimes not. skype does work. there may be a fix for the audio using libflash support program. where to get this& what to do with it is a problem.
perhaps it would be prudent to upgrade to 10.04 but this seems to be a work in progress and might lead me into further problems. on the other hand i could work up to ubuntu 9.10 if it would be more likely to work better the get to 10.04 when it is further along. i am pretty useless with the command line.on the whole ubuntu has worked well until this problem came up.
