Are you trying to stream files from your computer to the Icecast server, or do you mean live audio from a soundcard input? If you want to stream files, then Ices should work pretty good. If you want to stream live from the soundcard input, then I would try a program called MuSE. It's in ports (/usr/ports/audio/muse), and it is best run from the command line (the GUI gave some weird sound skipping problems for me). I use it for live shows and it works really well. -Mark
