Waiheke Radio Streaming Audio Server
Well I finally got around to building a streaming audio server for Waiheke Radio. I took one of the small fleet of Mini-ITX based computers from under the bed. Loaded a copy of Windows XP and installed Winamp, Shoutcast and the Nullsoft SHOUTcast source DSP. Installation is a doddle. Set the input on the mixer to line in and input tab of the plugin to Soundcard input.
Then came the basic make it work without distress mods. Set BIOS to auto power on, install TweakUI and set auto logon, open port 8000 in the firewall, add Winamp and Shoutcast to the startup group and install Logmein free in case it all turns to gooey stuff.
Now it is just a case of installing it at the station, setting a static IP so that the router pinhole will always find it and getting Brent to assign it a nice happy URL and a big LISTENÂ NOW button onthe web site.
