The SHOUTcast DNAS Server and Transcoder are both built to be run from the command-line console (or as a native service if using this mode) which may appear to be daunting when most interaction done with the operating system is done via a graphical interface (GUI). This is not the only way to setup a SHOUTcast system and more examples can be seen in the shoutcast_system_overview.txt which goes into more detail about the way SHOUTcast works as well as other ways of setting up a SHOUTcast system (see section 2.0). So a simple SHOUTcast setup would consist of the following: server > client where the main flow of data (the stream data) will go from the server to the client. The clients connect via a direct connection i.e. If you are new to SHOUTcast then this is probably something you may have already asked or you are trying to find out.Īt its most basic, the SHOUTcast system is based around a ' client + server' configuration which allows you to run a server (either directly or via a hosted service) which can then provide a stream or streams of the 'source' connected to the server to any clients which are connected to the server. These referenced sections generally provide a lot more detail on the option or feature such as what would need to be set in the Transcoder configuration to allow for it to work with the DNAS Server being setup and so on. This guide will refer you to other places in the documentation provided with the tools by showing references to the relevant file and section in the documentation files e.g. being able to open up and forward any required ports to allow your server instance to be visible to other machines on the internet as well as so the SHOUTcast Radio Directory can see you.
GETTING SAX AND DOTTY TO WORK WITH WINAMP HOW TO
Windows users see section 1.2.Īdditionally it is assumed you know how to setup your network connection and router to allow your server instance to be visible when broadcasting i.e. how to run and control a program via the command-line console including being able to pass to it commands and the sending of signals as is appropriate to the platform being used.
GETTING SAX AND DOTTY TO WORK WITH WINAMP INSTALL
It is assumed throughout the documentation that you have a basic knowledge of how to use the command-line console for the platform you decide to install the tools on i.e. The aim of this page is to help guide you through the process of getting a SHOUTcast 2 system installed and broadcasting so people can connect to it through the SHOUTcast Radio Directory and hear the great content you have and want to provide to the world.
