Hardware Call

Audio and Radio Streaming

This part is probably obsolete, since there is an indymedia-independent radio group, taking care of it's own hardware. --Briks 03:39, 29 March 2007 (BST)

We need a pc, that runs a streaming client and connects to a streaming server anywhere outsite the mediacenter. Content source is either a digital file on this pc or a analog (digital) live stream that arrives the line input of the soundcard.
