My Shoutcast works and when I send the link to other people it works but when ever someone listens to it they always say that the song keeps repeating itself over and over ontop of each skip so it gets very very fuzzy and horrible after a while! This is a huge problem!
Any help?

Please don't reply here and PM me.
I don't do PM support anyway, sorry.

1. Is your DNAS (SHOUTcast server) on?
2. Any errors logged in the DNAS?

Yes, it is working.
I see you dropped the bitrate from 320kbps to 24kbps, that's excellent.
Your stream has a lot of clipping.
Q: What is clipping?
A: "Clipping" means that when the mp3 file is decoded by your player, some of the sound samples will be too loud. The player will "clip" these samples so that they do not exceed the maximum allowable value. This clipping creates a sort of rough, "scratchy" sound during loud parts of the song.
Q: How do I fix it?
A: Track gain your mp3s with MP3Gain (http://www.geocities.com/mp3gain/) and/or lower your mixer volumes.

But I find that the track repeats itself every like 4 seconds!
