ok, I finally got it broadcast, but I want to do some tweaking now, I'm my own server so I tried figuring out how to do the songs on demand so I can post links on my website, but it doesn't seem to be working, I check it out my opening up my winamp and typing the address http://128.227.66.160:80/content/scpromo.pls but nothing happens, I get an error whenever it tries to connect, I'm not sure what i'm doing wrong here, HELP!:confused:

Evil Bob,
If SHOUTcast is installed in the default location on your Windows box then by default the path used to start SHOUTcast will not work. There are two main changes you will need to make.

1) Edit the config file for the DNAS.
Change
ContentDir=./content
to
ContentDir=./content/
Save it.

2) Change the Start In: location for the shortcut you use to start the DNAS so the relative path above is valid.
Right click the Shortcut and go to Properties and find the Start In: box
For a default installation use "C:\Program Files\SHOUTcast\" (with quotes). If you installed it somewhere else point it to the directory where the content folder is located.

Now restart the DNAS and try it out.
