 LISTENING |
|
Listeners tune in to SHOUTcast broadcasts by
using a player compatible with streaming MP3
audio. Users can visit the SHOUTcast directory
to locate a stream they'd like to listen to.
Recommended players are listed below:
-
Windows users should use Winamp.
-
Mac users should use Audion.
-
Linux/X Windows users should use XMMS.

|
BROADCASTING |
|
Persons wanting to broadcast can use our
SHOUTcast servers. Broadcasters use SAM2, SAM3
or Winamp and a plug-in called the SHOUTcast
Source for Winamp Plug-In to send audio from
Winamp to our SHOUTcast servers. |
|
|
|
RUNNING
A SERVER |
|
The magic of the SHOUTcast system happens inside
the SHOUTcast Distributed Network Audio Server (DNAS).
This software runs on our hosting servers
attached to our SHOUTcast hosting network with
lots of bandwidth, and is responsible for
receiving audio from you the broadcaster,
updating the SHOUTcast directory with
information about what you are broadcasting, and
sending the broadcast out to your listeners. |
