The themes and concepts of internet radio with instructions for setting up Winamp (DSP plug-in)
1. What do I need to open the internet radio (or general broadcast audio programs via the Internet)?
To begin broadcasting sound (audio) program, you need a leased service Audio Streaming. Many people lease web hosting, thinking it will be able to broadcast their programs, but they actually need services and audio streaming. Of course, web hosting will come in handy for hosting the official site of your radio.
2. Where can I hire an audio streaming?
Streaming audio can be rented with any large domestic / foreign hosting provider. If you are unsure where to purchase this service, please see our list of local hosting providers, as well as a list of foreign hosting provider.
3. If I rented an audio streaming service, will I have to leave your computer on?
Sure. Broadcast audio signal goes from your computer directly to the server. Your listeners are hanging on the server, and so follow your program. But when you are unable to broadcast a program, you can use the option AutoDJ (works independently of your computer).
4. Is the service expensive audio streaming?
Streaming audio is definitely skupši of web hosting, and rental in most cases, paid monthly (or if not otherwise indicated).
5. What is AutoDJ?
AutoDJ is a feature that allows you to play your program when you are not able or when your computer is turned off. It takes over an FTP (File Transfer Protocol) protocol to transfer audio files to your server, he would later broadcast the program independently of you.
6. What do I need to take care when renting audio streaming services?
As with web hosting, you should be aware of resources and related streaming audio capabilities of your package (plan). Resources here are quite important for AutoDJ options (if offered by the service), as well as the flow (bandwidth). When buying audio streaming especially careful to limit bandwidth (max traffic / max bandwidth). Of course you need to be careful about the maximum number of slots (maximum number of simultaneous listeners).
7. How much was the slot and flows need?
It all depends on your needs. Try a package that you are able to afford (later you'll be able to go to the package with more resources if necessary).
8. What are the other options do I need to take care?
Some of the most important features are the monitoring statistics of your radio (spending slišaoca flow and activity of your radio). There are tools for the integration of players in the website, which are available on some control panels (WHMSonic).
9. Rent Audio Streaming, which get the service, how would by able to broadcast?
You receive an IP address (which is in most cases, shared), a free port, user data (the panel and radio).
10. With any program can be broadcast program?
Enough to use Winamp, (its free version can be downloaded here). In order to broadcast over, you need Winamp and SHOUTcast Radio DSP plug-in (shoutcast audio streaming), which you can download it here.
11. I started broadcasting, but the quality is very poor. Is there something wrong?
Error is probably not to your preferences. Depending on the package that you've decided you have max bitrate, which will determine the output quality of audio programs. If you like the output format (output format) is recommended to select the MP3 broadcasting at 128 kbps for better quality, and if you have AAC + output format can be broadcast to a much lesser bitrate.
12. I went for the quality of the output AAC + format, but we now flash player on the website does not work? What should I set?
AAC + not working with flash player, flash recognized as WAV and MP3 format.
13. I have a VPS / Semi-Dedicated / Dedicated server, whether it can be used for audio streaming?
Of course, but with the help of appropriate software. If you have a VPS keep an eye on the flow (traffic / bandwidth). 14. What software is needed to install on your server so I can use it for audio streaming?
It depends on whether you want cloth or free solution. If the server is installed on your cPanel / WHM you use Shoutcast Admin Pro (official site http://www.whmsonic.com/sap_features.php), which is to be paid. Price Shoutcast Admin Pro is about 3,000 dinars to the annual license, and 10,000 dinars for a lifetime (lifetime) license.
