Hello there,

 

Ok if u have installed shoutcast windows u will need to edit the config file that will be placed in its folder in your C drive, now do u have a stable IP address that u can use or does your IP Address change all the time if you have a stable one get that just go to google or something and grab it you need to place that ip address in the config file so it will run,

 

once you have done that then you open Sam Broadcaster you will be looking for the broadcasting connection area in there you then add the details such as

 

IP Of the hosting shoutcast server

Name of the radio server

username

password

music speed rate such as like do you want people to listen to the music at 128kbs or 64kbs you choose that once you have filled in that information then you click ok to save it then right click on it and start it that will connect to the radio server and then once connected you are live then start playing music, how do you get the link for your radio well thats easy,

 

i give you the link now.

 

http://domainname.com:8000

 

go to that once you check it change the domain name to your IP Address it will have a area up top there it will say listen now right click on that and copy the link it will connect you to listen through winamp,

 

If you want people to listen via Windows Media player just use this to connect in media player http://ip:8000

 

If you need any more help please feel free to ask my self sorry if i have been late in replying as i live in australia so our time zones are not the same.

 

Regards

If you dont know what Teamview is its a support program so i can see your screen and i can help you install it and get it running,

 

Just let me know when you ready or something, i will be around im online alot so i am sure i will get a email saying you have replyed, i hope your new hard drive is better for u,

 

i just brought a new computer as well so yeah i installed XP Home on it i cant stand the new systems they have out or i got windows server 2003

 

So tell me are you planning to run this radio music thing 24/7 or is it only for short time only, have you got a other computer to run it on, or are you running it on your main computer.

 

Becasue if you have a other computer you could install windows server 2003 and run it on that, but like i asked you in the last reply do you have a stable Internet IP ADDRESS,

 

If you dont then your in trouble or you can use a free online dns service for your internet just remember with the sam broadcaster it only works for 30 days then you have to buy it.

 

I hope you understand if you need any more advise please feel free on contacting my self via The Board here or via email.

 

Take Care
