content is only used if you the content directory enabled, and each mp3 file would then be turned into a pls (winamp playlist). So make sure you removed the ; in from of contentdir, and that the mp3 files exist in the correct directory you configured for content. For example

ContentDir=/home/hackerdork

and in /home/hackerdork I have blech.mp3

http://10.0.0.2:8000/content/blech.pls would be what I reference for on demand. A live stream using winamp would just use /listen.pls without content.

The error is telling you it cant find the mp3 file in the content directory you defined etc.

If you try to stream from winamp, the listeners wouldnt use the content request, just listen.pls to turn in to the stream itself. If you read the config file you will notice the content is for ON DEMAND, not live streaming.


Good luck.

FIXED...

I had to specify the whole damn path to the content directory. I was using

ContentDir=./content

which is the default shiped with the SW, and I just changed it to

ContentDir=c:\program files\shoutcast\content

and it works!
