Shoutcast Server FAQ

LISTENING
Listeners tune in to SHOUTcast broadcasts by using a player compatible with streaming MP3 audio. Users can visit the SHOUTcast directory to locate a stream they'd like to listen to. Recommended players are listed below:
Windows users should use Winamp.
Mac users should use Audion.
Linux/X Windows users should use XMMS.


BROADCASTING
Persons wanting to broadcast can use our shoutcast servers. Broadcasters use Winamp and a plug-in called the SHOUTcast Source for Winamp Plug-In to send audio from Winamp to our SHOUTcast servers.

RUNNING A SERVER
The magic of the SHOUTcast system happens inside the SHOUTcast Distributed Network Audio Server (DNAS). This software runs on our hosting servers attached to our shoutcast hosting network with lots of bandwidth, and is responsible for receiving audio from you the broadcaster, updating the SHOUTcast directory with information about what you are broadcasting, and sending the broadcast out to your listeners.
