I have this installed, I am broadcasting off a private server http://69.93.182.18:9352 is my feed - if you check it, you will see that it is active yet nothing I do will make the feed apear active on my forum home.

Below is my settings.

// Shoutcast Server Stats
$scdef = "DigitalET Radio - Sponsored by Battlestationradio.net";
$scip = "69.93.182.18";
$scport = "9352";
$scpass = "my password";
$ircsite = "";
//End configuration

I would very much like to use this hack

nothin huh.

Could it be the default name not allowing it - as I dont have a default name in the shoutcast server - or can that be anything

Zachariah, any update on running two server stats at a time ?

Zachariah I have already installed this nice hack but I'm transmitting in three different bitrates 24kbps - 32kbps - and 40-64kbps. I wish to give my mebers the ability to choose which bitrate they will be listening to. Any idea how I can do this as the original one leads only (for all winamp-WM-RP-QT) to 64kbps.??????
I will be appreciated for your reply and thanks in advance.

If you can not connect to the server and the setting you have in the plugin are the same as the above post then you webhost is blocking the option to query other system other than localhost on ports other than port 80.

Send a trouble ticket to your provider.

I want to setup a php script that reads an XML feed on a remote IP:PORT, and my current webserver setting will not allow this.

Please Advise.

In your own words
- 9/10 times they will tell you ports that they allow this on.
- 1/10 times they will tell your to "pound sand".

If you do not have a website on the same server as your shoutcast server, set your shoutcast server to port: 80 vs. 8000

- adj. the script accordingly

You could get lucky

I am working:
- on multi server support.
- on a Admin "stat page" that shows:
* users connected - table list of (IP address, time online, client software used to listen, buffer underruns)
- other things that I'll have to look over the notes to REM.

I'll take a look @ multi bitrates. Can you PM me your server link w/ multi feeds bitrates?

[d8tabyte]

I said screw the other server, started one up on my home computer and I'll invest in hosting on a shoutcast friendly server - you were right - it was the port tripping me up on my server side... I couldn't see that port from my server... I changed it to 80 on my home comp and its working fine.

Another ? - is it possible to add AJAX to this so it updates soon as a song changes?

[d8tabyte]

Bump -

Anyone?

[Zachariah]

I have not played a lot yet w/ AJAX.
