You can find it here · For ID3 support, you have to install id3lib. You can find it here · An IceCast/Shoutcast server · An Intel 486-like CPU class (maybe a fast 386-like will work) · A good broadband connectionWhat's New in This Release:· FIXED: Serious configure script bug· FIXED: Serious bug in configuration file parser module· FIXED: Don't try to open non-existing files during stream· FIXED: Race condition on meta streamer selector launch· FIXED: Memory leaks· Added ID3 support· Added ICEMETAL language support· Default icegenerator.conf path is now SYSCONFDIR-fixed
