<h1 id="icecast-25-beta-2-documentation">Icecast 2.5 beta2 Documentation</h1>
<p>Icecast is a streaming media server which currently supports Ogg Vorbis and MP3 audio streams.
It can be used to create an Internet radio station or a privately running jukebox and many
things in between. It is very versatile in that new formats can be added relatively easily
and supports open standards for commuincation and interaction.</p>
<p>Icecast is distributed under the GNU GPL, version 2. A copy of this license is included with
this software in the COPYING file.</p>
<p>There are two major parts to most streaming media servers: The component providing the
content (what we call source clients) and the component which is responsible for serving that
content to listeners (this is the function of Icecast).</p>

<li><a href="http://www.vorbis.com/files">libogg/libvorbis</a> Version &gt;= 1.0</li>
<li><a href="https://www.openssl.org/source/">OpenSSL</a> (Optional, enable if SSL support is desired)</li>
