Is there anyway to reduce lag?
 

or some reaosn people arent hearing what i say untill about 25 seconds later?

Is this because i am running the DJ and the Server off the same computer/connection?

Can this be fixed?

Im on cable

No. It is normal. There will always be a lag.

Sorry had to post bot Jrman006,

Check out the results from a SHOUTcast forum search on 'delay', or 'buffer', or 'lag', or 'latency', or 'real time', or....

The answer to all is:
The buffer allows QoS (quality of service) to the listener.
If you want real time, then SHOUTcast is not the solution.
