Using the following command to start gst-launch should render a 320kbps stereo mp3 stream (I tried to get stereo with vorbisenc, but couldn't find any properties that did so). Anyway, here is the gst-launch command i used: gst-launch-0.10 pulsesrc device=spotify.monitor ! audioconvert ! lame bitrate=320 mode=stereo ! shout2send ip=localhost port=8000 password=PASSWORD mount=stream To use lame to encode the stream, you need to have the lame gstreamer plugin. To install this on Ubuntu (karmic), run: sudo aptitude install gstreamer10.0-plugins-ugly-multiverse Apart from this minor issue, I was able to follow your guide with no issues on Ubuntu Karmic, thanks for publishing it!

Rather than using Spotify with OSS however, I used this PPA for Karmic which has pulseaudio support compiled into it http://www.3spoken.co.uk/2009/08/making-wine-sound-work-with-pulseaudio.html So, I've now got my Spotify showing as a pulseaudio source but I don't know where to find it's .monitor file in order to follow the rest of your guide. I can stream all my system sounds (including Spotify) over Icecast by using gst-launch pulsesrc device=alsa_output.pci-0000_00_1f.5.analog-stereo.monitor ! audioconvert ! vorbisenc ! oggmux ! shout2send mount=/stream.ogg port=8000 password=pass ip=127.0.0.1 but then I have the problem where my laptop audio is playing at the same time as my delayed streamed (to squeezbox) audio. Hope that makes sense, any thoughts? Thanks Thanks for the guide, very useful.

This is very nice and exactly what I was looking for. The only problem is GST+PA+Spotify using quite a lot CPU, about 30% on a 1.4Ghz machine (pushing the laptop above the limit of comfortable temperatures on the lap). I guess gst-launch-0.10 and spotify.exe using a lot of CPU is explained by the encoding and decoding. I have to wonder why PA uses almost 10%... In any case thanks a lot. Thank you!

I should read E. Hemingway sometime. I keep puttig it off. Have you read Antonia Porchia's Voices? I highly recommend it. A lot of it is quoted on my old site (accessible through my current site) though. Looking forward to your next small teaser. Thank you for posting in English!

I think I implemented .. math::, not .. latex:: in the end. I did that to stay compatible with the <a href="http://sphinx.pocoo.org/" rel="nofollow">Sphinx</a> tool for Python documentation. I haven't looked into the image problem as most of the wiki pages are text only and I do not perform latex conversion, only to and from Sphinx on a few occasions. Hi!

My only question (since I have not had time to implement this myself) is, why not put the math code in $x^2$? This seems like it works for both jsMath and latex but I am not sure how the ReST parser would handle it. This may save you from having to write a directive. Also, have you found some way to handle image URLs (preferably without a directive). Say you specify: .. image: some-image.png But you want the HTML document to refer to http://url/some-image.png while having the latex document refer to `figs/some-image.png`?
