Hello fpc-voip fans.

Ok, IceCast is ok to be the main audio-streaming-server.

Now, for sending data to IceCast there is:

IceS: It is a executable that can sent data from local opus-ogg files or the sdtin input sent to the sound-card.
Nice but... I loose control, I can not choose what to give to the server, it is all what goes out of the soundcard or nothing...

A other solution is to use libshout:
https://github.com/xiph/Icecast-libshout

I have already translated the shout.h header into fpc Pascal. It works.
I am busy to annoy libshout forum to have some demo how to use their library (aargh, sad to not give demos when you create a project).

PS: Of course if there are some libshout or IceCast gurus around here, your advices are welcome.
