This tutorial will guide you through the setup of your SHOUTcast server account using Nullsoft winamp and the Nullsoft dsp plugin. We assume you have downloaded and installed both of these to begin with.
1.Start up winamp and choose options, preferences(or press Ctrl and P at the same time) .
2. In the left panel of the dialog click DSP/Effect and in thr right choose Nullsoft Shoutcast Shouce. Once you have clicked the SHOUTcast Source dialog will appear .
3. Click the encoder tab. Choose the format you will be using in the Encoder Type drop-dwon box. This is usually MP3 for most streams. In the Encoder Settings menu select the bitrate for your stream.
4. Choose the output tab. Enter in the address box the ip for your server, the port in he port box an pass in the password box. Ensure that automatic reconnection is ticked.
Click connect to check it is all working. If so, disconnect and move on to the final part below.
If it will not connect please check your settings once again.
5. Click the Yellowpages button. Edit the description, URL and Genre , etc to suit.
Tick make this server public. This will list your server on Shoutcast.com.
Now whatever music you play with the Winamp player will be broadcast via your SHOUTcast server.
You can view the status of your streams by browsing to http://<replace with server IP>:<replace with port>
For example: http://123.456.78.9:8000
happy streaming
