Ice cast source client for ios

I have been trying to create a source client for ice cast for ios. I have been able to connect using asyncsocket to connect to the socket. I am also able to write data to the server. The icecast configuration is done for mp3 format. But the mp3 file written to the server is corrupt. I am providing some code snippets.

Header:

 NSString *string = @"SOURCE /sync HTTP/1.0\r\n"
        "Authorization: Basic c291cmNlOmhhY2ttZQ==\r\n"
        "User-Agent: butt-0.1.12\r\n"
        "User-Agent: butt-0.1.12\r\n"
        "content-type: audio/mpeg\r\n"
        "ice-name:  sync's Stream\r\n"
        "ice-public: 0\r\n"
        "ice-genre: Rock\r\n"
        "ice-description: This is my server description\r\n"
        "Connection: keep-alive\r\n"
        "ice-audio-info: ice-samplerate=44100;ice-bitrate=48;ice-channels=2\r\n\r\n";

     NSData *data = [string dataUsingEncoding:NSUTF8StringEncoding];

    //sending http request to write the header
    NSLog(@"Sending HTTP Request.");
    [socket writeData:data withTimeout:-1 tag:1];

    //write buffer data to server
    [socket writeData:self.dataBuffer withTimeout:-1 tag:1];

for recording i am using aqrecorder using the following code to record it.

void AQRecorder::MyInputBufferHandler(  void *                              inUserData,
                                        AudioQueueRef                       inAQ,
                                        AudioQueueBufferRef                 inBuffer,
                                        const AudioTimeStamp *              inStartTime,

                                        const AudioStreamPacketDescription* inPacketDesc)

Do i need to change the format to write to the server?

You're not sending MP3 data, you're sending AAC or M4A data. I don't believe Icecast supports M4A. Are you actually using Icecast or some other server?

For AAC, your Content-Type header is wrong. Try audio/aac, audio/aacp, audio/mp4 or audio/mpeg4-generic.

Also, you only need one User-Agent header, and you should pick something that matches the software you are writing rather than copying someone else's. In the future, there might need to be an adjustment of protocol for your code, and that would only be possible if you used your own user-agent string.
