# Asterisk Project : ICES

Added by mdavenport , edited by russell on Aug 30, 2010

The advent of icecast into Asterisk allows you to do neat things like have a caller stream right into an ice-cast stream as well as using chan_local to place things like conferences, music on hold, etc. into the stream.

You'll need to specify a config file for the ices encoder. An example is included in contrib/asterisk-ices.xml.
