Question 1

I received an instreamer 100 part number 2012.8076 from another dealer in february 2016.  what are the best mpeg settings? audio has been poor so far.

Accepted Answer

If you bought the device in 2016, then you have an "Instreamer", not an "Instreamer-100".  I would suggest setting the device to MPEG1 48khz, VBR, quality 7.  You can also choose MPEG1 48khz, CBR, 320kbps, but then make sure to set the bit reservoir mode to "used" instead of "kept empty".There are some who refuse to use anything except uncompressed PCM at 48khz, but then you will use a TON of bandwidth.  definitely not something I'd do over the internet unless you have a big pipe.

Question 2

Can I use this product in pairs with Barix Extremeer 100?

Accepted Answer

Thanks for the question. The answer is yes. The Exstreamer 100 decoder will pair up with the Instreamer encoder. They are stereo units. Hope this helps. ProSoundUniverse has Barix in stock for immediate shipment. Ric G ProSoundUniverse, Apex, NC. USA

Question 4

Can I use this for my internet radio station. When I turn it on will it automatically connect to my shoutcast hosting and start streaming?

Accepted Answer

It would depend on whether you are sending a signal to Shoutcast (use an Instreamer $195) or if you are receiving a signal from Shoutcast in which case you would want to use an Exstreamer 100 ($195) or 110 ($249) (has an LCD display) decoder at your end.  We have both in stock.RIcky G  ProSoundUniverse   Apex, NC  USA
