Run A Radio Station.. SOLVED by albert on 09-22-2005 at 08:36 PM

Im trying to run a shoutcast radio station.. I downloaded Winamp and the shoutcast tools, now I got into a menu , the ShoutCast Source one..

it's the output section, Im trying to connect.. but I can't seem to do so.. it asks for an adress a port, a password and an encoder.. i have no clue what these are.. also im running on a laptop on a wirelless router.. so does this change anything..

Plz help, thx :)

You shouldn't need an address, and the encoder should just be something like RAW or MPEG. As for the port, pick a number between 1024-65535, then forward it in your router (www.portforward.com for details)

:offtopic: Use VideoLAN Server or VLC, they're much better than shoutcast. At least use icecast if you want to stay away from vlc.
