Hello,
I have been using Shoutcast to play music over a local LAN. I use a shoutcast source and shoutcast DNAS server.

I am a new user of icecast. Ices source didn't have a GUI so i used the shoutcast source. I configured Icecast server to take input strem from shoutcast client. Earlier with shoutcast the playlist name used to be like

http://pgp-05-060:8000/listen.pls

which could be directly inserted in winamp and played. Now the icecast server shows the listen url as

http://pgp-05-060:8000/stream

which gives connection added to the winamp. what probably could be the eror or what should i do to rectify the same. Please help me on the same.

Regards,
Sachin

It's not clear on what your question is, the second link you mentioned would be for the actual stream, whereas
http://pgp-05-060:8000/stream.m3u would be a playlist, but you can also write your own pls file and place that under webroot. So you can still have a listen.pls if you wish.

sir u are right that it is the actual stream address that i have given. but when i use shoutcast DNAS server, in winamp in the add url column it works.

when i use the icecast server, the icecast window shows the listen url is

http://pgp-05-060:8000/stream

of which the machine name and port number comes from the shoutcast client running on winamp.

on the remote machine i am not sure what url should be added in the winamp to make it run. the icecast listen url is not working as such. so the question is:
1. does the url need to be changed in some way
2. is there any authentication needed.

please help me with the same.

thanks,
Sachin
