How does this work? (SHOUTcast + Website)

proproductions · 26th February 2007, 21:37

OK so it's been a few months since I played with SHOUTcast and on downloading it I spotted and went passed something to do with comment tags showing shoutcast info.

So I downloaded and setup shoutcast and got a stream working perfectly and on looking around the settings I couldn't see an option about this comment tags feature.

So I have spent the last 4 or so hours looking around here and seeing that this sort of thing isn't possible.

With that I went back on the look for where I spotted the comment feature. And sure enough I found it here >> http://www.shoutcast.com/download/serve.phtml

Right near the bottom it says

Quote:

The HTML template file is best explained with an example. Consider this file, stored on the same server and pointed to as CurrentLogIn:

<HTML><HEAD>
<TITLE>My Current Stats</TITLE>
<HEAD><BODY>
My SHOUTcast server is currently playing .
You get see more information about it at 
</BODY></HTML>

So what is this about and how would it work?

Besides that I am also wondering if it's possible to edit and/or remove some pages from showing in the shoutcast server pages. For example removing the admin section completely.

you can have shoutcast dump information into a file. Using html and the optional variables that this function understands, you can pull that information back out of the file.

You have to specify where to dump the info, where the info gets read from, and how often you want to check for updates.

Personally, I have never used it. Seems to me that anymore, there are much easier ways to get the same thing accomplished.

Don't wonder, you simply are not allowed to do so

you were asking about HTML Stats? See my avatar for Statistics v4 (below this message) any feedback would be great. There's a few tutorials (still being worked on) which show you what it's all about and how to get the stats on your site..

Cheers.
