-mp3cast~.dll is a MPEG I Layer III (mp3) streaming external for pd (by Miller
-Puckette) that connects to a SHOUTcast or IceCast server.

- using mp3cast~ external for Pure Data
-
-Open the help-mp3cast~.pd to understand how it works.
-In this patch, you must send the messages to mp3cast~
-in the following order :
-
-1/ password *****
-2/ icecast | mp3cast
-3/ connect host port
-4/ pd dsp 1
-
-Parameters sent to mp3cast~ object :
-
- Sampling Rate (Hz):
-Possible values are 48000, 44100 and 32000. If Pd runs at a different sampling
-rate, LAME will resample the signal. Default value for mp3 sampling rate is Pd's
-sampling rate.
-
- Bitrate (kbit/s):
-Possible values are 32, 40, 48, 56, 64, 80, 96, 112, 128, 160, 192, 224, 256
-and 320. Default is 224.
-
- Mode:
-Possible values are 0 (stereo), 1 (joint stereo, the default), 2 (dual channel)
-and 3 (mono).
-
- Password:
-The default is 'pd', can be changed with a message "passwd yourpassword".
-
- Server:
-Use message "connect name_of_your_server.com port" to connect (same as with
-Pd's netsend). 'port' is the number specified in the server's config file.
-Attention (for SHOUTcast users): The actual port number used is one higher!
-Standard would be 8000 resulting in a socket at port 8001!!! Bare this in mind
-when configuring proxys or using mp3cast~ in connection with netsend /
-netreceive. For IceCast, the port number used is the same as specified.
-
- Outlet:
-The outlet outputs an int, 1 if connected to SHOUTcast server, 0 if not. This could
-be used to build an automatic reconnect mechanism.
-
- Other things:
-mp3cast~ prints the current status (connection, login, LAME status) to the pd
-window. To see the current settings, send it a message "print" and mp3 settings
-will be displayed.
-Note that changing any mp3 settings will require to disconnect and reconnect again!
-This has to be done manually.
-
- Known problems:
-If you turn off audio processing when you are connected with the server, no data will
-be sent to it. This will make the server disconnect after a certain time ('no data'
-error in server log). mp3cast~ does not recongnise this and attempts to keep on
-streaming. To avoid this set 'AutoDumpSourceTime' in the servers config file to a
-fairly high value preventing the server from closing the socket to fast.
-
-ALLOWED QUALITY FACTOR :
-
- -q <arg> <arg> = 0...9. Default -q 5
- -q 0: Highest quality, very slow
- -q 9: Poor quality, but fast
- -h Same as -q 2. Recommended.
- -f Same as -q 7. Fast, ok quality
