Well firstly i tried making new topic in F.A.Q but it says only mods can post new topics so i figured id post here. Anyways, my problem is, that i made a radio with icecast using winamp and oddcast. I did a basic setup (following this guide http://www.poromenos.org/tutorials/icecast ) I can now do mp3files but what i cant figure out is to make it play continously. I tried it on windows media player, and it would play around 20seconds of a song and then simply replay the same song over and over again (the same 20 second song) and it would never play the songs that i was streaming...any suggestions?

Not without more detail on the setup. Is it the same with other players?

    </logging>
 
    <security>
        <chroot>0</chroot>
    </security>
</icecast>



btw, i got it to stream now, but the problem is, my Oddcast needs to be disconnected first.


Steps to work it:
1.I have to disconnect the encoder
2.A tuner will have to open Windows Media Player and insert my url http://99.238.103.115:8000/stream.ogg
3. They press ok
4. They recieve a message that says it cant connect to the url etc
5. They press close
6. I enable the connection
7. They press play
8. The windows media player buffers
9. They press play again.
10. They are in

The problem is, when the encoder is connected, nobody else can join....is there a way to fix?
