station stopped playing.

[dj001]

I have a relay station. Underlying station looks fine. In DNAS and WinAmp, my SHOUTcast station looks like it's playing fine. It shows up in the SHOUTcast directory fine. But when I click "Tune In," WinAmp is silent, showing "[ICY 200 OK] http://," plus my correct IP address. I am stumped.

The problem could involve your router -- it may not allow your PCs to use the WAN IP from your LAN -- If you don't see your request in the relay's DNAS log, this is what's going on. The [ICY 200] message is probably the pls sent by the YP.

Try using the relay DNAS LAN IP when you are testing.

Sorry to be such a dork, but how do I do this?

At one point you must have "known" the LAN IP of the DNAS PC because it is the "target" of your port forwarding exercise. This means you can check with the router and review your port forward config to get the IP, or you can run ipconfig /all on the DNAS PC to get the IP address.

This address is so important to you, you must carve this IP into the nearest tree, and write it down in permanent ink and carry it with you at all times.

Bookmark the link to your DNAS station page.

the format is http://(((put your IP in here))):(((put your dnas portbase here)))/

(((I shouldn't have to say this, but leave the parenthesis out)))

For you and you alone on your lan and on the DNAS PC, you can also use http://127.0.0.1:8000/ (if 8000 is your portbase, otherwise replace it with yours) to view the station page. The important thing is to notice the format -- only numbers.

add [append] listen.pls for a listen link, but keep in mind that it's always better to view the station page because it contains all the other links you need including a listen link with the proper IP address for you to use.

I didn't have to do any of this. I just closed the DNAS console, then relaunched it, and WinAmp resumed playing the stream properly.
