 Streaming FAQ
 
Streaming is easy! The server uses SHOUTCAST.
 
You have 2 options to connect to the server:
- Oddcast as a standalone tool
- Shoutcast_plugin for Winamp

While On Air:
While you're on air you're supposed to read at least the shoutbox so users can communicate with you, esp. when it's about important things like switches etc. Home (Light) is perfect for that as you can zoom in and read it from far at the mixer.
 
Stream Rips:
Ripping a stream (e.g. your own stream) is easy with the Stream Ripper plugin for winamp. Install, connect to the stream in winamp, start to rip. Winamp doesn't need to play the stream while ripping but when you start to rip.
Always rip and / or record yourself! Ripping on the server happens manually and is not 100% working.
 
Stream Stats:
You can view the normal ShoutCast stats here.
