ok so i have sucessfully got a shoutcast stream goin heres how

http://www.shoutcast.com/download/broadcast.phtml

first follow the steps in getting your server setup.. this covers all the server side of shoutcast..basically its installing the newest winamp, getting the winamp plugin, and the shoutcast server (all links are contained in this webpage)

next, create a file in /data/radio called radiolist.txt

edit the file to fit this example:
shoutcast=[radio station name]
shoutfile1=http://[your ip:port] port is 8000 by default in the shoutcast server and plugin

load winamp... in options / plugins select the shoutcast plugin(this is covered in the shoutcast.com link)

make a playlist of what you want on ur station and hit play.. it should automatically bring up the server box showing stream stats

once your on the planet, from experience, it takes about a minute from turning on the radio until you hear it.

any questoins , you know where to find me
