I actually do have a G5 with digital in and i HAVE been using the first method with Nicecast, however nicecast costs a bit too much for me to purchase it for these reasons. That is why i was wondering if there was an easier option from within slimserver as i saw one could broadcast to live365.com with the plugin i was surprised there was no option to broadcast to a specified shoutcast server. Is there any other way. Letting your friends build a playlist and listen to your music at work seamlessly in one app such as slimserver, would be phenomenal. -- BugDave _______________________________________________ Discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
