Elf Review Radio

This isn't quite out yet, but It's going to be up in a few hours (Or days) It's going to be an online radio station, were I review games (non scratch), as well as apps, software, and other things, all over an internet radio. I can't quite figure out how to broadcast on Shoutcast, so if anyone knows how to (For free) or if you can host it your self, let me know. For now, I'll be broadcasting on listen2myradio. The downside is, listeners can only listen on the computer, and I have to get on average (I think it's) 50 listening hours a day! Unless I can get over that, this is just going to be temporary. Like I said, this isn't quite ready yet, so keep checking back. Also, if you have any ideas for things I can review, let me know.

You do? Great! The only thing is, the Winamp plugin isn't around any more. Do you do it a different way? Oh, and do you want to host it, or do you just want to tell me how?

Oh I can't host it. But the plugin is available in two forms.

1. (no live audio, all on a playlist) foobar 2000 plugin. This only allows Ogg Vorbis though.
2. (live audio support) Edcast Reborn.. This comes either for Winamp or standalone and appears to work fine though I haven't tested it thoroughly.

That's fine if you can't host it. I'm fine hosting it, I just thought it would be easier. Thanks for the links BTW. I'm going to check out the Edcast reborn, and if I cant get it, I'lll try the foobar one.

Re: Elf Review Radio

Is there a stand alone that allows me to stream mp3's, because it doesn't look like the edcast reborn can stream mp3's. if you don't know of one, I'll just use the Foobar. I'm just on my netbook right now, so I wanted to try out the edcast stand alone without having to slow up my computer with winamp.

Re: Elf Review Radio

None can stream mp3s unless you add LAME to Edcast Reborn.

Re: Elf Review Radio

I tried out foobar, but I can't seem to get it working with my icecast server. Do you know of any tutorial? Maybe I'm just really confused.
