I'm helping a friend who's just taken over running a website/radio, currently they have a 128k, 50 user shoutcast server. I was looking at how we could make things easier for DJ's to connect, there are quite a few of them and each have 1-2 hour slots during the week, and there have been problems with the autoDJ in the past, i read that Icecast servers may be more suitable.
If no one is tuned in, and the autodj is just streaming to the server, will that be using bandwidth or is it only server-client traffic that's counted?
What is the control panel like? Is it web based? It looks much better than what i've been using, from the pics i've seen anyway!
Can the bitrate settings be changed on the fly?
Does icecast work the same way as shoutcast but with the ability of automatic autoDJ switching?
That's all i can think of asking right now
