Re: [orca-list] Internet radio broadcasting clients that work with orca

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
I am not a professional deejay, technician however I like playing with 
stuff. Occassionally we are broadcasting little shows with friends.
Originally I was using Winamp to play music and broadcasting using 
edcast under windows.
Later on I have discovered an opensource app called Mixxx ( 
http://www.mixxx.org/ ). This is partially accessible. It uses QT4 for 
its UI. It is working well in windows and also in linux if you have got 
qt-atspi installed. It is targetted primarily at deejays gigging in the 
clubs however it features two decks ability to do voice overs via 
microphone, it allows prelisten on a multichannel sound card, it 
directly supports broadcasting to shoutcast / icecast. So it can also be 
used for a broadcasting radio shows. Recently I have installed jack 
audio kit on my laptop running arch linux and when tweaking jack 
connections I can configure my system so I have ability to broadcast the 
show and also do prelistening on the single laptop with built-in 
soundcard. Of course the sound output coming out from the speaker 
includes the sounds of screen reader and also prelisten stuff but the 
broadcast only contains what it should. Mixxx is in the debian / ubuntu 
/ arch repos so it can be installed very easily.

There is also GTK based Internet DJ console ( 
http://idjc.sourceforge.net/ ) running on linux. This is targeted at 
those wishing to master live radio performances. It features multiple 
decks, sampler for jingles, ability to use microphone, ability to 
broadcast and even ability to connect voip calls into the air. I havent 
tested this my-self so I don't know whether this is usable while orca is 
running. I also don't know whether it is available as a package for any 
distro.

Greetings

Peter
