Shoutcast AAC+ to MP3 Relay


gulfam

Recommended Posts

I want to relay my Internet radio stream from AAC+ format to mp3 format. Is it possible? If yes, please guide me how. I am running shoutcast server with WHMSONIC on my own server. So, if some additional installation on the server is required, I can do it.

StreamTranscoderV3 will only transcode from MP3 to AAC or AAC+ and that is ONLY the Windows version.

 

However, it will not transcoder from AAC+ (or AAC) to mp3.

 

There isn't any way we know of to do this.

Agreed, there is currently no technology that we have found that will convert AAC to MP3.

 

There are only programs that convert actual aac files to mp3 files, however my guess is that the same technology can be used to convert live streaming, it just hasnt been created yet. Im betting the reasoning for that is that AAC to MP3 conversion is quite resource intensive.

If you have your own server, why not just put out 2 streams then. 1 aac+ and the other mp3. I put out 3 streams on my station.

 

Johny, thanks for your tip but I use AutoDJ most of the time. If I put 2 streams, how will they play the same thing while AutoDJ shuffles the tracks automatically?

The only possible way to accomplish what you are trying to do is:

  1. Install a copy of SAM4 (Spacial Audio)
  2. Set up an AAC+ endoder
  3. Make the input stream the Auto DJ feed

There is no transcoder that can do what you want. That is the only work-around that will work.
