In its basic mode of operation, it streams media files or data from standard
|
|
|
|
input without reencoding and thus requires only very little CPU resources. It
|
|
|
|
can also use various external decoders and encoders to reencode from one
|
|
|
|
format to another, and stream the result to an Icecast server. Additional
|
|
|
|
features include scriptable playlist and metadata handling. All of its
|
|
|
|
features make ezstream a very flexible source client.
