Problem streaming.

[Naomii]

Okay, I just want to stream directly to one of my friends. Maybe even two. Here's my problem..

I can't seem to get the stream out of my router. I can listen on the PC it's hosted on, but I can't get it on any computer outside of this one.

Here's what I've done so far..

Downloaded and installed the server. Downloaded and installed a client. Downloaded and installed Winamp2. Now, I've streamed to my business' radio already, so I know that I can do it.

I set up the sever to run off of port 8000, but it still says it's looking for connects on 8001.

On my client, it's set for localhost, port 8000, and a low quality encoder.

On my router, I've forwarded the ports 8000-8001 (just in case).

Am I missing a port that Shoutcast is using?

Someone help! :[

[FesterHead]

The source connects using portBase+1 and is handled automatically by the Winamp/DSP combo. Use the DNASs portBAse value in the Winamp/DSP combo for port.

Any errors in the DNAS log?

Please post a link to your stream.

That's a good DNAS startup log.

Now you just need to connect your source.

Did you change the DNAS variables srcIP and destIP from ANY?

Is your DNAS and Winamp/DSP combo on the same machine?

What exactly are you entering for "Address" and "Port" in the DSP?

[Naomii]

' In the DSP? '

Where would that be? The client that runs when you run Winamp 2?

[Naomii]

My screen name is

Naomi Kearnon

If you have AIM, it'd probably be easier to get it working since there isn't a 10 minute pause.

Please help.

[FesterHead]

Heh. You edited your startup log.

Check out the results from a SHOUTcast forum search on '400 bad request'.

Look for the post by eth1k titled:
[yp_add] yp.shoutcast.com gave error (HTTP/1.1 400 Bad Request)

Spoiler: icy-aim:Naomi Kearnon <- Remove the space

[Naomii]

Yes, but before I ever did that, it still didn't work properly. Please IM me..

Even before I put that in, it still was timing out (not showing up) for anyone.

[Naomii]

See? Now that it's up and running with no errors..

I go to my other PC in the next room, and try it a bunch of ways..


http://172.140.15.169:8000

http://172.140.15.169:8000/listen.pls

I tried both in IE -AND- Winamp. It's just plain not working.

[jackherer]

Is this not a local ip address like 192.168.x.x and 10.x.x.x that isn't used on the net. Post your external ingternet IP

[Naomii]

Yes, this is the IP of the router, not a private IP address.

Do I need to use a different one?

[Naomii]

Okay, I know it works because I can listen to the stream on the same PC that it's being broadcasted from. I need to know if Winamp 2 / Server thing has a port I'm not aware of.

[FesterHead]

172.16.0.0 - 172.31.255.255 (172.16/12 prefix) is the private ip address with a 172 prefix.

Please double check your ip.

Does your DNAS log have "yp added me" and "yp touched" messages?

[Naomii]

Yes, constanty.

any ideas?

[jackherer]

What IP do you get when you go to http://www.casterclub.com/ and click get IP/Host info ?

[Naomii]

k

[Naomii]

I went and did that and typed the IP to see what it would do, and it went to my router admin page.

I editted it out.

[jackherer]

http://205.188.234.41:8000/listen.pls should work for your stream then as this is your internet ip, although it doesn't r u definately broadcasting on port 8000 ?

[Naomii]

positive.

localhost
port : 8000

? [/B]

If your getting the above in your log then it should be working OK and your settings are correct, the shoutcast directory can successfully connect

[jackherer]

Right your IP seems to have changed, you are broadcasting OK and i am currently listening to your stream you IP is 68.63.64.8 so use http://68.63.64.8:8000/listen.pls for people to connect. You may want to get a no-ip.com or dyndns.org address so you don't have to keep telling your freinds what your new IP is.

[Naomii]

Yeaaaaah.. Seems to work now.

Thank you so much! ;]

Couldn't have done it without you two.
