In this guide I will talk about the technical aspects and legal aspects of internet broadcasting I hope it proves useful to you :)



image of option screen use this if u get stuck on where to place things :)

Bits you need


1 x computer


A connection to the internet preferably a USB modem

USB modem :


Router:


I will talk more about routers near the end of this guide as they have a different setup

At least 128 upload speed
Speed Test

And port 8000 unblocked on your firewall or the port you wish to use (not sure which port don’t worry il explain in moment :) )

There Are two basic options you can choose when using a USB modem

Please now proceed to the recording Tab of Vdj and go to broadcasting

And then broadcasting options

You will notice 2 options …

1.

Use Virtual DJ as a server :

this option allows you to use your own computer to broadcast ,

Available formats for this mode :

Are Shoutcast - mp3 or ice cast .ogg

Shout cast is in my opinion the best option here as mp3 will play in any player that supports streaming

Now you are asked to pick a bit rate , try 96kbs to start with and if you find this lags lower it , especially on slower connections

You are now asked to give a name to your stream

Call it what u wish to

Then you are asked to pick a number of listeners :

to work out how many listeners you can support , use this sum every listener takes up 14 kb of your memory so if you have 512 of ram and then you consider how much ram your applications need of this
You can have a rough idea of how many to choose , start low until you have that many tuned in ,

Remember the amount of bandwidth you have and your upload speed are also very important factors in picking the number of listeners you will allow


Please also take a moment to read the legal advise in the next section..:)

another important thing is

its crucial that on your firewall you unblock port 8000 or you cannot stream!
Here is the guide to adding an exception to windows firewall
http://www.brooksnet.com/setup/firewallsetup-sp2.html
for other firewalls consult your manual or ask your system admin still not sure email me at admin@skyfxlmedia.com il do my best to help 

Option Two:

Stream to an external server

For this you need a host to host your external servers

International copyright law states that to play copyrighted music you need to pay royalties and have a licence for non private purposes , so if you intend your station to be listened to by any one else except your friends (about 10 of them)

You need to apply for a internet broadcasting licence

This can be done in two ways

You can pay for a hosting service which acquires a licence for you up to a certain number of listeners ie

Live 365!
however if you wish to make money from the station or advertise or have larger listener numbers you need to arrange to pay royalties also via a pro package.

or you can use a free host such as listen 2 my radio

such as listentomyradio!

and pay for a licence separately

for citizens of the Eu you can purchase a licence here

prslicencing

Now lets talk about the setup ..

in this mode you have the same options again


Available formats for this mode :

Are Shoutcast - mp3 or ice cast .ogg

Most Hosts prefer that you use Shoutcast

Now again you are asked to pick a bit rate , try 96kbs to start with and if you find this lags lower it , especially on slower connections

Now you will notice the box called host :
Your hosting company will provide the following info

Address : 70.84.232.223

Port : 8000

Place the address in the host box and the port in the port box

Now its crucial that on your firewall you unblock this port or you cannot stream!
Here is the guide to adding an exception to windows firewall
http://www.brooksnet.com/setup/firewallsetup-sp2.html
for other firewalls consult your manual or ask your system admin still not sure email me at admin@skyfxlmedia.com il do my best to help 

You will also be asked to name the stream pick the name you wish

On sign up your host will have asked or provided a password to access the server

Place this in the box called password

Now press ok

You are now ready to stream  to your external server


Broadcasting behind a router

a router is a device which allows a connection to be shared between computers ,

however this comes at a cost , your connection to the internet is not direct



your connection is routed

so broadcasting ports are not accessible on the internet so you cannot stream from vdj as a local server

unless you go to your router config and forward port 8000
you will find instructions for this in your router manual

if you find this to confusing or you do not want to bother with this simply broadcast to an external server it will work fine :)

I hope you have found this guide usefull

If you have any questions post them here or email me or msn me at

admin@skyfxlmedia.com




i followed all your instructions and i cant seem the listen to it from my other computer

I love the guide however.

I'm trying to broadcast at WadioMedia, they're running on a icecast server (i think), we have the icecast format but there's one thing missing.

To connect to the server I need a Mound, on VDJ it doesn't have a Mound feature.
Is there anyway I can get this Mound feature to work With V-dj?

Without the Mound I get a reply from the server only. 'The Server Replied: '' '

Any idea how I can fix this?

Sorry, I think it's the Mound from SAM broadcaster. that's the feat. I need.

If I don't have a router can I also broadcast by opening ports 8000 and 8001 as I already did?


If you connect via a USB modem then no port forwarding is required.

Any idea of why I would be getting an invalid password over and over? I have triple checked the password and for some reason VDJ will keeps telling me that Server answered: invalid password. This is not really possible anymore. I am not sure what else to do.. Any ideas please? Thank you!

I can broadcast just fine with the virtual dj (byitself no shout or ice cast) and also with just winamp (using shoutcast) I can also use virtual dj and broadcast through winamp(using shoutcast)the problem is when I try to use virtual dj and shoutcast. After a few minutes I tend to get an echo that after about 20 min or so it more like the same song being played just a second or two later. now this is only when it's being broadcasted via shoutcast. On my end it sounds great. Can someone give me some insight on how I might be able to fix this?

I was hoping someone might be able to help, but it looks as if no one can. Anyway.. the problem is worse when you "mix" if I do just play a play list it's not as bad as quick. Anyway. I can't seem to figure this thing out.. I do know that if I have "Dead Air" the echo is bad and there quickly.. SO COULD SOMEONE PLEASE HELP ME FIGURE THIS DAMN THING OUT?????
