No one can listen in

drboot · 19th February 2006, 20:05

None of my friends can listen in.

I send them to the adress i got when i first signed up wich was like

http://192.168.1.97:8000/listen.pls

i noticed how like the other stations have sites and theres is like

site.com/radio.pls

is that the problem? that im using my ip?

sorry if confusing kinda hard to say what im trying to

use your external ip and not your internal ip address,

www.ipchicken.com for your ip address..

you will also need to forward ports in your router to allow incoming connections

heres some handy tutorials to get you going

welli replaced the 'internal ip' with my external one and now it says 'connection refused when trying to contact (myip)'

drewbar · 19th February 2006, 20:24

yours is good! sweet i think i got it now

Nick@ss · 19th February 2006, 21:30

working fine but buffering like mad

i suspect you do not have the bitrate to stream at 160k

Server Status: Server is currently up and public.
Stream Status: Stream is up at 160 kbps with 2 of 32 listeners (2 unique)

probably, how would i figure out whats a good kb to stream at?

Nick@ss · 19th February 2006, 21:44

upload / bitrate = max users.

drboot · 19th February 2006, 23:04

hmm, its messing up again nowits saying "Unable to establish a connection with the server."

but this time its using my external ip
http://70.146.153.148:8000

i've tried lookin around to see whatcould be wrong onl thing i see is that in the shoutcast source on winamp, on the connection part, adress, i tried putting my external ip(70.146.153.148) but it wont connect with that, but it will with my internal

idk whats wrong any suggestions? it was workin a lil while agoidkwhat i changed that messed it up

drewbar · 19th February 2006, 23:42

Works fine. Many routers don't support loopback. So, it's not too big of a deal if YOU cannot connect to your external IP.

You are still skipping a lot, though

drboot · 20th February 2006, 01:32

yeah its workin for my friends n shit now i guess its just me heh one more question, anyway to get the .pls n .asx format so it can be compatible with windows media player cause most people use that
