Multi-Bandwidth Icecast Radio Streaming

Hi there,

I volunteer at WCOM 103.5 and was hoping someone might be able to help me understand how we would go about offering either multi-bandwidth streaming via Icecast, or adaptive streaming via Icecast.

Ideally we’d like to offer both 128 kbps and 320 kbps streams to our online listeners, but I have no idea if this has to do with setting up additional hardware or software or both. I’m not sure anyone at the station currently knows how we are encoding our current 128 kbps stream, so I figured I’d start the conversation with the good folks at ibiblio.

Thanks in advance for any guidance you can provide!
