For a Shoutcast V2<\/strong> server select Shoutcast from the Server Type dropdown.<\/p>\n

Important:<\/strong> Shoutcast V1 is not supported as is dismissed since 16 years and is highly insecure.<\/p>\n

Once youo choose Shoutcast<\/strong>, the proper server fields will appear.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

So, if your Shoutcast URL is for instance<\/p>\n

http:\/\/5.135.191.40:8000\/;stream\/1<\/p>\n

you have to set<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Host: 5.135.191.40<\/li>\n
  2. Port: 8000<\/li>\n
  3. Protocol: default or automatic<\/li>\n
  4. Channel: by default is 1, but you can specify another number if you have a multi-channel shoutcast.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    Force HTTPS option:<\/h3>\n

    This option is required for the providers allowing HTTPS connection on non-standard ports.<\/strong>
    \nUsually, the only HTTPS port is 443. But, if your Shoutcast has HTTPS on some custom port as 15550<\/strong> or anything<\/em> else other than 443, and you are sure that the HTTPS connection is there, then use the “force https” setting.<\/p>\n

    Otherwise, the player will automatically use HTTPS<\/strong> for the 443<\/strong> port, and HTTP<\/strong> for any other.<\/p>\n

    Troubleshooting:<\/h3>\n
      \n
    1. If your website<\/strong> is HTTPS<\/strong> and your stream is HTTP<\/strong>, you generally cannot<\/strong> display titles, nor listen to the music. In this case you may want to put the site in http or change streaming provider.<\/span><\/strong><\/li>\n
    2. If your stream is HTTPS<\/strong>, your website is HTTPS<\/strong> and your shoutcast page is HTTP,\u00a0<\/strong>you generally cannot display titles without using a proxy. It would be much better if you use a streaming provider that gives you HTTPS access, but you can also try our proxy (enable the proxy in the channel settings)<\/li>\n
    3. If the proxy doesn’t work either, please ask your website hosting<\/strong> provider (where you bought your domain and\/or hosting) to make sure that your website can connect, server side, to the port of the shoutcast channel.In the example above, the channel<\/strong> is 8000<\/strong>, so you need to verify with your website server provider<\/strong> that your site can connect, server side via cUrl, using the port 8000.<\/li>\n
    4. If your streaming provider<\/strong> has an HTTPS<\/strong> stream but the certificate is invalid<\/strong>, your browser will refuse the connection, for obvious security restrictions. You can verify this condition by opening the https url of your Streaming page on the browser.<\/strong><\/li>\n
    5. If you need help setting up your radio, please contact our helpdesk.<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ol>\n
