How to send an upstream to shoutcast server from Android.

[sjssoft]

I want to make it clear before you start reading that I want to develop an android based app to use android device as a broadcaster, which records sound using its mic and sent it to shoutcast server something like this:

Android Device with internet connection -> Shoutcast Server -> listeners.


I googled a lot in last two weeks and found This article, which helped me to use builtin mic of android device and stream over a local network. One can listen the stream using VLC.

But I want to send up-stream to my shoutcast server same as one can use winamp with DSP plugin and the problems are:

1. Is there any url based system on shoutcast server, to which if I will send a stream then it will get the stream and broadcast to my listeners? e.g. if I want to listen stream (down streaming), i can use http://xx.xxxxxxx.com:1234;stream.mp3 and I am asking for up-streaming.

2. How I can establish a connection to server by login/password. I want to do similar to DSP Plugin as shown in image attached.

If you want to develop, follow Dr. O's URl. If you want one to use, go to Google Play store and try Broadcast Myself or TrackCast

Thanks mate, years later google found your BroadcastMyself recommendation and I am now using it for voice-overs on the road and mixing in environemental recordings live. But it often disconnects so I am going to try TrackCast as well.

BM handles IceCast or ShoutCast, TC only ShoutCast.

Also there is a new one called Listen2MyRadio Control Panel.

Will try all three and post a comparison.
