Think you could play some of my Synthetik FM stuff? :) That'd be GREAT.


Yeah, We can prolly do that. I've still got some work to do yet on this beast though. It may be up an ddown for the next day or so while I play with it.

Also, I should warn you all that the server itself isn't a dedicated server. It's actually a seldom used computer that sits on a cable connection at my Mother and Father in laws house. I figured that if the bandwidth is there we might as well use it. That being said, I may have to shut the server down at times if they want their computer back. ;)

All in all though, I am please as punch with the over ease of set up and use. I had a real blast last night.

it sounds pretty good. i am using winamp, and i am not having any connectivity problems. maybe some quality issues. i am listening to nitzer ebb - getting closer on it right now and the sound quality is 40kbps at 22.0hz, which is well under cd quality, but i just noticed that is what they all say, so i guess that is what you are broadcasting at. other than that, i sounds great!! (ok so i am a little obsesive, so what if all my mp3s are rippes at 200kbps vpr?)

Well, the trick is in the bandwidth/processor and memory (serverside) available. Right now I have it set to a max of 10 listeners. I haven't doen much experimenting yet but I am afraid that if I up the bitrate, it will get super choppy for the listner. I may experiment with it in a bit though.

BTW, I don't have anything encoded under 160. ;)

Basically its starts to chop if you hit a high bandwidth sucker, like KGChat...

It says it cannot connect in WMP, WinAmp, and real player, so there's apparently a problem w/ my connection. Any idea how to fix it? :-(

When you put the address in did you use the http:// in front?

Yup. I know it's a connection problem, because it won't even load WMP and RP's home page. But the internet's working, so...?

Shoutcasting is soo much fun :) Congrats on doing it! I listened a little bit the other day - some good stuff playing!

A really, really cheap shoutcast server:

512m Ram
1.5-2.0 mhz cpu
40g hd
highspeed connection

You're there.

Less than $300.00

When is KG Radio getting its own page?
