The First & Christmas Talk Webcasting Podcast.



The first, and hopefully not only, Talk Webcasting podcast.  It has a fantastic tutorial on setting up a SHOUTcast server for £10 a month, an interview with Jason from 360 Impact Branding and some Christmas cheer!

Thank You to Dave Carter, Jason Cooper, James for your help with the podcast!

It should be said that this Podcast has been something me and Dave Carter have been speaking about doing for about 6 months now so it's fantastic that we finally have one up Smiley.

Ask a Pro

Interview with Jason from 360 Impact Branding.  You can visit his website at:

http://www.360impactbranding.com


Transcript for Davey's Bits and Bobs.

Link B: http://yp.shoutcast.com/downloads/sc1-9-8/sc_serv_1.9.8_Linux.tar.gz

Config Pointers:

Okay, the main bits you need to edit in your sc_serv.conf file are the following:

; MaxUser.  The maximum number of simultaneous listeners allowed.
; Compute a reasonable value for your available upstream bandwidth (i.e. if
; you have 256kbps upload DSL, and want to broadcast at 24kbps, you would
; choose 256kbps/24kbps=10 maximum listeners.)  Setting this value higher
; only wastes RAM and screws up your broadcast when more people connect
; than you can support.
MaxUser=32

; Password.  While SHOUTcast never asks a listener for a password, a
; password is required to broadcast through the server, and to perform
; administration via the web interface to this server.  This server should
; consist of only letters and numbers, and is the same server your broadcaster
; will need to enter in the SHOUTcast Source Plug-in for Winamp.  THIS VALUE
; CANNOT BE BLANK.
Password=changeme

; PortBase. This is the IP port number your server will run on.  The
; value, and the value + 1 must be available.  If you get a fatal error when
; the DNAS is setting up a socket on startup, make sure nothing else on the
; machine is running on the same port (telnet localhost portnumber -- if you
; get connection refused then you're clear to use that port).  Ports < 1024
; may require root privledges on *nix machines.  The default port is 8000.
PortBase=8000

and finally...

; AdminPassword.  This password (if specified) changes the
; behavior of Password to be a broadcast-only password, and
; limits HTTP administration tasks to the password specified
; here.  The broadcaster, with the password above, can still
; log in and view connected users, but only the AdminPassword
; will grant the right to kick, ban, and specify reserve hosts.
; The default is undefined (Password allows control for both
; source and admin)
; AdminPassword=adminpass

To set an admin password, first delete the Semi-colon ";", delete the beginning space, and then enter the password. Like this

AdminPassord=MYNEWPASSWORD!

Tar Commands:

tar -zxvf *.tar.gz

Also i'll get some pictures of my new studio space when that's sorted in Jan.

Good work all, hope everyone has a great christmas, and a very happy new year.

Great job guys on the first podcast. My microphone was acting a bit strange as well. Like it was clipping, but I got my problem worked out. Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. I look forward to continuing with the free voiceover offer and getting new business with your members in 2009.

Before long everyone will want a bad microphone Tongue.

And on another note, if any large company wants to give me a new microphone I will happily plug their company (a lot!) in the next podcast  Grin!
