Hello Lynn
Have you or Gordon tried Nicecast?
I guess I'm missing something as I do not do any radio broadcasting but
I know with that you can broadcast a radio station with either a local
server or with an online service like Shoutcast.

Hello everybody
I have just bought Gordon a full copy of Station Playlist Creator Pro and also Studio
Pro. As you may or may not be aware, we are starting up a new radio station on the
Internet shortly and will be looking for broadcasters who want a bit of fun doing a radio
show. Gordon does have OTS AV DJ Pro Classic; however, there are accessibility issues
with that application now it would appear. Actually it isn't just accessibility. Neither
of us can figure out, for instance, how you categorise a full album at a time. Since it
relies quite heavily on categories, we decided to look at alternatives. DJay for Mac is,
whilst quite usable, not really "man enough" for the task in hand. For instance
it isn't possible to schedule playlists precisely enough to allow for news bulletins at
the top of the hour, things like that.
We have looked at the current version of Station Playlist Creator and Studio
Pro, and they both have some very yummy features which even OTS AV DJ Pro
Classic doesn't offer. For example, the idea of being able to have multi car
machines assigned to various shortcuts is one which Gordon finds very
appealing. The radio network on which Gordon will be working at our local
hospital and, shortly, the community radio station being set up to cover our
entire town will be a lot easier for Gordon to work with knowing exactly which
cart machines should be used on each station, as well as the prospect of being
able to use our current M4a music collection holds a lot of appeal as well.
Gordon has the option now of which broadcast system to use; but I personally
think he will be able to use Station Playlist Creator and Studio Pro much more
effectively. If any other members have comments on this, whether they use
either package, we would be most interested to hear them. Especially in the
case of anybody who has successfully managed to get categories to work with the
current version of OTS.
