Re: Shoutcast help needed
Yeah, USB microphones can sometimes cause quite a habic for broadcasting, a friend of mine tried to broadcast with one, and she couldn't be heard. At 23:39 5/24/2007, you wrote: Hi Everyone, Ok finally figured it all out. I had a USB microphone plugged into the system. So everytime I switched the input mode from winamp to soundcard it was using the USB microphone as the soundcard. I stumbled upon this when I forgot and left the microphone switch on and was playing with the input settings while streaming and heard my voice from the USB microphone. I unplugged it and the SoundBlaster took over and everything works just fine. Oviously the winamp shoutcast plug-in can't handle more than one sound card as the combo box only says winamp or sound card for the inputs and I was not able to select from the USB microphone and the SoundBlaster. I plugged in a USB sound card after I started streaming to get Jaws to switch to it instead of the sound blaster. So all my problems were due to the USB microphone. That's really crazy isn't it? Now to see if I can teach my client to do this. Thank you everyone that gave me advice, especially Jonathan that got me going in the right direction tonight.

Re: Shoutcast help needed
the issue is and why you can't be hurd is when you broadcast you need to have what you hear turned on on the card, and USB's since they are a separate sound divice don't usually have that functionality that is why people can not be hurd well.

Shoutcast help needed
Hi everyone, I am helping a client to setup a shoutcast server. I've downloaded and installed the shoutcast server and shoutcast plug ins here and have configured them. I have a functioning shoutcast server with one problem so far. Using the winamp shoutcast plug in, how can I also use a microphone along with the audio stream? Any help is appreciated since I've spent many hours working on this project and am on a dead line to finish it and train the client on its usage.

Re: Shoutcast help needed
Hi Darrell and list, Ok I did as instructions for linerec tell me to do. I did a control + l in winamp to bring up the open url dialog. I type in linerec:// it goes into my play list with my other things. I setup my volume for the microphone using sndvol32 and setting the record properties to select the microphone input and set the volume at 85. When I go to linerec in my play list and press enter and then speak into the microphone nothing happens except silence. Am I doing something wrong here? Do I need to download something else. I'm assuming that linerec is already in winamp?

No you don't need that. you need a dsp broadcasting tool and your volume control in windows.

RE: Shoutcast help needed
Hi Rick, this is really very straight forward. The only issue may be if the person concerned is using software speech through the same sound card that the material to be broadcast is coming from. In the Shoutcast DSP plug-in for Winamp, there are two modes. One sends data direct from Winamp itself. In other words, if you play an MP3 file, then the MP3 data is transcoded to the bit rate you select, and then sent over the Internet. This is nice because you can minimise Winamp and use your sound card for other things while streaming music. It doesn't facilitate talking over music though. The other mode simply broadcasts whatever is coming through the sound card. So all you have to do is select this mode, select what you hear or stereo mix or whatever the feature on that particular sound card is called that records what is being played through the sound card, and go for it. If the broadcaster is using a simple microphone plugged into the microphone socket, then the microphone will need to be unmuted in playback controls when speaking. While there are controls that do this for you in the Winamp DSP, a simple way to handle this is to leave the control unmuted and use a microphone with a switch. These can often be found on analogue headsets and some of them sound surprisingly acceptable.

jonathan i have a question about station playlist how do you get rid of the delay in the mic? - Original Message - From: Jonathan Mosen [EMAIL PROTECTED] To: 'PC audio discussion list. ' pc-audio@pc-audio.org Sent: Thursday, May 24, 2007 6:35 PM Subject: RE: Shoutcast help needed Hi Rick, this is really very straight forward. The only issue may be if the person concerned is using software speech through the same sound card that the material to be broadcast is coming from. In the Shoutcast DSP plug-in for Winamp, there are two modes. One sends data direct from Winamp itself. In other words, if you play an MP3 file, then the MP3 data is transcoded to the bit rate you select, and then sent over the Internet. This is nice because you can minimise Winamp and use your sound card for other things while streaming music. It doesn't facilitate talking over music though. The other mode simply broadcasts whatever is coming through the sound card. So all you have to do is select this mode, select what you hear or stereo mix or whatever the feature on that particular sound card is called that records what is being played through the sound card, and go for it. If the broadcaster is using a simple microphone plugged into the microphone socket, then the microphone will need to be unmuted in playback controls when speaking. While there are controls that do this for you in the Winamp DSP, a simple way to handle this is to leave the control unmuted and use a microphone with a switch. These can often be found on analogue headsets and some of them sound surprisingly acceptable.

Re: Shoutcast help needed
Hi Jonathan, I'm not a broadcaster so unfortunately this isn't all straight forward to me. I have seen the settings that you are talking about and have tried switching the input for the plug in to soundcard and then setting up the volume control for recording to what you hear and setting the playback microphone to unmuted. When I do this however I hear nothing from the server. No audio stream and no voice from the microphone. I've been working on this for a week now and am banging my head against the wall. I simply don't know how to get this done via winamp and the shoutcast plugin. I have no problems getting the audio stream to work. That part is actually pretty simple. But getting the voice over simply isn't working no matter what I try.

The only issue may be if the person concerned is using software speech through the same sound card that the material to be broadcast is coming from. In the Shoutcast DSP plug-in for Winamp, there are two modes. One sends data direct from Winamp itself. In other words, if you play an MP3 file, then the MP3 data is transcoded to the bit rate you select, and then sent over the Internet. This is nice because you can minimise Winamp and use your sound card for other things while streaming music. It doesn't facilitate talking over music though. The other mode simply broadcasts whatever is coming through the sound card. So all you have to do is select this mode, select what you hear or stereo mix or whatever the feature on that particular sound card is called that records what is being played through the sound card, and go for it. If the broadcaster is using a simple microphone plugged into the microphone socket, then the microphone will need to be unmuted in playback controls when speaking. While there are controls that do this for you in the Winamp DSP, a simple way to handle this is to leave the control unmuted and use a microphone with a switch. These can often be found on analogue headsets and some of them sound surprisingly acceptable. Now if software speech is coming through the same sound card, then either a second sound card or external synthesiser must be obtained, or you'd need to go to StationPlaylist Studio which is a fantastic solution and highly accessible.

Re: Shoutcast help needed
you are able to tell winamp which card or divice to use in the in put out put settings, I started broadcasting yesterday, for the first time, I didn't have a whole lot of help with anything and got it all done in about an hour. I can now select the in and out for winamp and it all seems to work just fine. I now broadcast with the Q online which is found at www.douglaso.com I broadcast on the following schedule: sunday 9 to 2 monday tuesday and wednesday 9 to 11 thursday 9 to 11 and 6 to 10 friday and saturday 9 to 11 I have a good friend syd who broadcasts from 6 to 11 on sunday nights and another one that broadcasts from 6 to 10 on tuesday nights.

The input can only be changed between winamp and soundcard. If you have multiple sound cards it only seemed to be able to use one of them I had to unplug the USB microphone to get it to use the sound blaster. Not sure why but it's nice I could get it to work finally. Still more to learn but I'm getting there.

RE: Shoutcast help needed
Hi Rick, aha, that would indeed explain it. Winamp will use the default sound card, so once the USB microphone is connected, Windows treats this is a sound card in its own right. It may have worked to keep the USB plugged in and to go into Control panel and select the other sound card as the default. But anyway, very good to hear you have it sussed now.

Re: Shoutcast help needed
how exactly did you change between them? When I went to the input tab and tabbed to the combo box where you make the selection winamp or sound card, I only had two options there and not 3. So when I went to sound card with the USB mic plugged in it used it for the sound card. Only once I unplugged it was the sound blaster the sound card. Are you saying you have more options there? or are you using something other than the shoutcast dsp plug in? oddcast had the capibilities to switch between cards for the input source but I am required to use shoutcast by the client.
