Hello guys! On my system, there is currently a Shoutcast Server and my radio station is run through Winamp, with the Shoutcast Plug-in and a Sam Encoder Plug-in. Lately, I decided to subscribe to one of the Streaming Servers for more band width. I still plan to keep my onboard station and play it from time to time. My question deals with setting up the streaming service account, Spacialnet.
Now, I'll be using a shoutcast server on their service, 40 listeners at 64k. Now with connecting to the service. The server is on their web site, a Shoutcast Server. If I use my Sam Encoder, can I setup connection streams with the same plug-in? I see Sam Encoder has a new button and it apparently allows multiple accounts. Can I just switch back and forth between each stream, Spacialnet and my own, just by selecting Sam Encoder accounts? Also, can I use the Shoutcast Plug-in for both accounts? For example, I don't want to have to go in and type new stuff each time I use the Shoutcast Server. I would just like to go to preferences in Winamp and choose the plug-in I want to broadcast with. Would I have to have multiple occurrences of the Shoutcast Plug-in in Winamp DSP area or can you use one as Sam Encoder does? If you must use two, would I just copy one to a empty folder, rename the file and put it back in Winamp plug-ins folder--thereby having two Shoutcast Plug-ins in the same folder. I see that the new Shoutcast Plug-in has the capability of having multiple accounts, but I found the new plug-in too difficult to use and returned to the old one. I guess I am working towards getting two streams going at the same time, but I want each one to work independently first; then I can switch back and forth between the two. Also, when it comes to ports, do I use Port 8000 for the spacialnet shoutcast server as well or would they have a different one. then, could you check out the system by typing in the http://localhost:xxxx/index.html link or type in your ip address, like http://ip address:80000/listen.pls? Also, could I use the same DNS2go ip tracker for both accounts? Thanks for indulging me in my many questions.
