I don't think -- from what I've been able to discern -- that your
scenario below will work, starting with "once you've done that".<br>
My own attempts to get something going in this regard stopped even
earlier, as I as attempting not to use a winamp source but a
server-based playlist. Shoutcast folks were apparently moving to Y2
support and their side was seriously broken at the time.<br>
<br>
It took a lot of trial and error to get the shoutcast machine set
up.<br>
<br>
Finally, this configuration worked.<br>
portbase srcip destip serverport_1 serverip_1<br>
8080 (no spec) (no spec) 8080 localhost <br>
<br>
My strategy was as follows:<br>
1. Try to get listed on shoutcast with a fixed playlist on the
server. I haven't solved this yet, but should probably try again.<br>
2. See if your theory that it is possible to relay an icecast stream
through shoutcast and be correctly listed. I have a humch this may
not work.<br>
3. If not, then run the icecast server and shoutcast servers in
parallel. Since my station at <a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="http://www.AirProgressive.org">http://www.AirProgressive.org</a> uses an
extensive perl script to "get_next" track to play, this will likely
need to be recoded slightly to become a wrapper around a call to a
program that can be called by Shoutcast and will generate the same
track.<br>
<br>
I wonder if anyone has actually tried relaying a stream through
shoutcast AND getting it listed. It would save me a lot of time if
we can settle whether this actually works or not.<br>

<div>However, it would seem logical that if a Shoutcast server was
setup to relay an Icecast server (i.e. the Shoutcast source is
an Icecast server) then it would still be listed in the
Shoutcast directory as normal. </div>
<div>
<div>I would assume that the goal of this kind of setup would be
to gain a wider audience. </div>

<div>I've never tried this, but assuming you have a working
Icecast server, I imagine the steps to getting the Shoutcast
relay working would be:</div>
<div>1) Setup a Shoutcast server<br>
2) Setup the default Shoutcast source client (Winamp?)</div>
<div>3) Test that the server works with a Shoutcast listener
client (Winamp again!)<br>
4) Test that the server is then being listed in the public
Shoutcast directory<br>
<br>
Once you've done that, then you could switch over and use
Icecast as a source:<br>
5) Configure Icecast to provide the correct content when
Shoutcast requests a stream (that's the <alias> directive
stuff)<br>
6) Reconfigure Shoutcast to relay Icecast</div>
<div>7) Repeat step 3 & 4.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>I'm not sure if others agree, but 'on-topic' for this list
would just be step (5) above. </div>
<div>The rest of the steps would probably be better answered on
the Shoutcast forums, but you might find others on this list
with more experience who can add something.</div>

I do not believe that this is off-topic at all. However, I
personally<br>
do not wish to support shoutcast YP technology, even though
I<br>
understand the importance of being listed there.<br>
