Hi There,

I just wanted to set up the shoutcast server and boradcast from the content dorecotry.

As I know I set up the config file correctly, but my server's status after starttin sc_serv still says your is server is down.

What am I doing wrong?

thanx for any help,
bansess®

You need to send the DNAS a source.

Dropping mp3s into the content directory doesn't source the DNAS.
You either need to use a Winamp/DSP combo, or use on-demand (which uses the content directory).

Check out the Sticky post titled:
