Your SHOUTcast DNAS server is working as it should, correctly. You can find the bytes sent in te "DSP Plug-In" window box, they will change of course as they accumulate to the more information sent.

Tha3Rd · 28th February 2003, 18:11

So right now it is broadcasting?

FesterHead · 28th February 2003, 18:11

The yp messages mean:

"yp added me" means your station information (station name, bitrate, maximum number listeners, current number listeners, currently playing song, ...) has been added to the SHOUTcast yp (yellow pages) directory.

"yp touched" means your station information (station name, bitrate, maximum number listeners, current number listeners, currently playing song, ...) has been updated in the SHOUTcast yp directory.

It can take up to 15 minutes after the first "yp touched" message before your station appears from a SHOUTcast yp search.

Tha3Rd · 28th February 2003, 18:12

what is the address?

Euroimported · 28th February 2003, 18:13

Yes, indeed it is. If you want to double-check if it is playing, just go to http://yourIpAddressHere

ort/listen.pls

It will give you statistics on your SHOUTcast DNAS server.

EDIT: your server is working properly, although it's streaming output to 127.0.0.1. that's the SHOUTcast home IP. you need to find your PC ip address and enter it in the DSP Plug-In box, in place of the 127.0.0.1. then, "kill" or "disconnect" the server and it should reconnect back up to your PC if all is correct. this way your listeners will be able to hear your music.

[edit]Doh! I'm too slow

[/edit]

DNAS link: http://yourDNASip:yourDNASport
Listen link: http://yourDNASip:yourDNASport/listen.pls

Replace yourDNASip with the ip of the DNAS (SHOUTcast server) and yourDNASport with the DNAS port (default is 8000)

Also, machines on the same lan as the DNAS (you) need to use the lan ip of the DNAS to connect/listen.
Machines not on the same lan as the DNAS (the rest of the world) need to use the real, world-visible ip of the DNAS to connect/listen.

See RFC1918 for more information. Scroll down and look for the section titled: 3. Private Address Space

How to find your ip address (Part I).
How to find your ip address (Part II).

Finally, you can get a static name, such as foo.bar.com (not as cool as that, though

) from http://www.no-ip.com or one of the other myriad of Dynamic DNS Services.
Then, your links would be:
DNAS link: http://foo.bar.com:yourDNASport
Listen link: http://foo.bar.com:yourDNASport/listen.pls

bite me, i've been waiting for my XML stats response for ages tsk tsk tsk

Tha3Rd · 28th February 2003, 19:34

Thanks Guys... could someone listen to http://24.103.23.221:8000/listen.pls and let me know if it's working?

FesterHead · 28th February 2003, 20:55

your station is up.

However, I was not able listen to anything since it appears you aren't playing anything.

Also, I'm not sure that I would be able to hear anything because your stream needed be be re-buffered constantly.

Are you sure you can handle 40 128kbps streams let alone one?

Use 1 to find your upload.
Use 2 to determine the number of listeners you can support at your selected streaming bitrate.
