My guess is that you are trying to send out an invalid file type (ie: Maybe AAC or WMA?). I personally have not tested these, but maybe that's the case. You obviously can't send out a word document on shoutcast though...

Please post a link to the DNAS.

there are a couple video's in the list but it shouldnt change anything, also what should be in the content folder?

i have gone to

http://www.radiotoolbox.com/online_tools/cantheygetin.php


and it says that


my ip:8000 is Closed

Reason Given: Connection refused
More about this error: This essentially means that the port is open to the internet but has no services associated with it. There is no firewall protection on this port

although when i move my mouse over the server it says [0/32] users, and i am sendging bytes to the server


Is there anything specific that sould be in the content folder?

[dj_pauleh]

i have also been to the radio and it says there are no servers accosiated with it but it says 0/32 users, and it also says connection refused. anyhelp please?

[protegechris]

Are you behind a firewall or router? If so, please post what kind.

[dj_pauleh]

I Have disabled norton dont know what affect that will have, and also i have disabled zone alarm

There is no firewall protection on this port

[protegechris]

Norton can continue running, as I leave it on 24/7 and have no problem. Have you tried broadcasting since you disabled ZoneAlarm? And if you still are given "connection refused", do you have the Windows XP Firewall activated (if you are running xp, of course)?

If you are running XP firewall, please see:

[dj_pauleh]

even though making these new connections, should i still disable the xp firewall, now it says that another program is using the port ^o)

[protegechris]

Don't disable the firewall, just open ports 8000 and 8001.

[dj_pauleh]

ye ive done that now, then i go to

http://myiport/content/listen.pls

and it should work, also it says something is using that port now :S


Also what should be in the content folder?

[protegechris]

i tell yu what. post a link to the DNAS, and I will test it

[dj_pauleh]

DNAS?

My radio

[protegechris]

I hear your (techno?) music playing.

This is the proper link
http://yourIP:8000/listen.pls

There shouldn't be a content folder.

Also, in the Winamp DSP, might want to go and change your server name and everything, should be in output, click yEllow pages

[dj_pauleh]

god man thanks alot, i can get it to work now, thanks, what do you need to be able to listen to it? bcos other people say it doesnt work?

[protegechris]

They will need Winamp.
DNAS is the server program.

However, if someone would like to listen with RealPlayer/RealOne or Windows Media Player, then you will need to direct them to these files...

For the .asx (WMP).. put the following in a notepad document and then save it as <whatever>.asx

code:


<asx version="3.0">

  <title>TITLE</title>

  <entry>

    <title>TITLE</title>

    <author>AUTHOR</author>

    <ref href="http://yourIP:yourPORT/"/>

  </entry>

</asx>

Of course, change things to fit your needs.
Note: This only works in WMP 7.1 and up
Note the trialing slash after "yourPORT"


For the .ram file to open a RealPlayer stream, enter the following into a notepad document:

code:
http://yourIP:yourPORT.rm

Then save that as <whatever>.ram

Simply upload those to your website and link them and they will open in the appropriate player.

Thanks Alot, You Were a Big Help

[dj_pauleh]

when i upload the WMP one, it just displays Paul, when i clik on it, but it works on my desktop

[protegechris]

Thanks. ; )

As for the .asx one, your host most likely does not have the correct Mimetypes to support it.

Try emailing your host, and asking them to set these mim-types:

http://support.microsoft.com/default...NoWebContent=1

After they do that, the file should work.

[dj_pauleh]

If All fails, could i just Add another link,

http://80.3.25.143:8000/listen.pls

and tell them to dl it and 'open with' prefered Music Utility?

[protegechris]

Yes, that should work also, unless they don't have anything else to listen to it with. Like if all they have is windows media player.
