+RTP Streaming
+=============
+
+DisOrder is now capable to transmitting RTP streams over a suitable network.
+To enable this make sure that allplayers use the speaker process, i.e. execraw
+rather than exec (or it won't work properly) and configure the network speaker
+backend:
+
+ speaker_backend network
+ broadcast 172.17.207.255 9003
+ broadcast_from 172.17.207.2 9002
+
+The destination address doesn't have to be a broadcast address.
+broadcast_from is optional but may be convenient for some cases.
+
+To play, use the disorder-playrtp client.
+
+ disorder-playrtp 0.0.0.0 9003
+
+Currently only 16-bit 44100Hz stereo is supported, which requires about
+1.4Mbit/s. Possibly other lower-quality but lower-bandwidth encodings will be
+supported in future.
+
+If you have a too-recent version of sox you may need to set the sox_generation
+option.
+
+There is now (not well tested) multicast support.
+
+
+Icecast Streaming
+=================
+
+This can be achieved using the speaker_command option and Icecast (see
+http://www.icecast.org/). It will only work if you use the speaker process,
+i.e. execraw for everything.
+
+I used:
+
+ speaker_command "ices2 /etc/disorder/ices.xml"
+
+where ices.xml is:
+
+ <?xml version="1.0"?>
+ <ices>
+ <background>0</background>
+ <logpath>/var/log/ices</logpath>
+ <logfile>disorder.log</logfile>
+ <loglevel>4</loglevel>
+ <consolelog>0</consolelog>
+ <stream>
+ <metadata>
+ <name>lyonesse</name>
+ <genre>Various</genre>
+ <description>lyonesse disorder output</description>
+ </metadata>
+ <input>
+ <module>stdinpcm</module>
+ <param name="rate">44100</param>
+ <param name="channels">2</param>
+ <param name="metadata">1</param>
+ <param name="metadatafilename">/var/disorder/icedata</param>
+ </input>
+ <instance>
+ <hostname>lyonesse.anjou.terraraq.org.uk</hostname>
+ <port>8000</port>
+ <password>SOURCE PASSWORD HERE</password>
+ <mount>/disorder.ogg</mount>
+ <reconnectdelay>2</reconnectdelay>
+ <reconnectattempts>5</reconnectattempts>
+ <maxqueuelength>80</maxqueuelength>
+ <encode>
+ <nominal-bitrate>64000</nominal-bitrate>
+ <samplerate>44100</samplerate>
+ <channels>2</channels>
+ <flush-samples>8820</flush-samples>
+ </encode>
+ </instance>
+
+ </stream>
+ </ices>
+
+This doesn't seem to get on very well with pausing but you're unlikely to want
+to pause a stream in any case. I used IceCast 2.3.1 and Ices 2.0.1. You can
+play the stream with XMMS or whatever. The total setup seems to play rather
+behind the 'current' time, watch this space for a fix (or contribute one!)
+
+If you have a too-recent version of sox you may need to set the sox_generation
+option.
