# The net/ezstream port

## ezstream-0.5.6p1 – streaming source client that uses external en-/decoders

## Description

    Ezstream is a command line source client for Icecast media streaming servers.

    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.

    Supported media formats for streaming are MP3, Ogg Vorbis and Ogg Theora.
    Metadata is supported through TagLib, which can read information from many
    media file formats.
