Hi all. Im new to this internet radio, but have managed to get my station up and running without any problems. But one thing is bothering me. On Shoutcast Administrator it says "Server is currently up and private", should this say public?? And if so how do i make it so?? Thanks, Andy.

Hi Andy. Yes if you would like it to be public and therefore listed on shoutcast.com then you should make it public. This is set from within your encoder that you use to stream your radio. Usually the same area as the Meta-Data (title / genre etc...).

Its the software you use to connect your music to the radio. The software on your pc for radio streaming. The settings for public / private are in there.

Apologies. We have just figured out you are using the Auto DJ which means the encoder in on the server. You needed to restart the server for your public setting to take effect. We have done this for you by using the restart server button and your server is now public
