Relay from Icecast to Shoutcast

Read 15802 times
Hi Centova

Is it possible from within CentovaCast to relay from an Icecast server to a Shoutcast server ?

I know its possible with Icecast to create an alias of the mountpoint to the root of another port and it works (i.e. because Shoutcast doesn't use mountpoints and requires the stream to be on /). I think this could cause issues though if i was to manually do this inside the clients server.conf as the settings would likely get overwritten when they updated their settings.

Any ideas ? - Thank in advance.
Centova Cast won't overwrite any configuration file edits as long as your edits don't interfere with stuff that Centova Cast normally manages (it actually goes to great lengths to keep any customizations intact).  So you should be free to customize the configuration files without any problems.
can you document how to set up an icecast to shoutcast relay. that would be extremely useful to be able to be listed on the shoutcast directory.

you have to make several changes, ill tell you what ive done, and it works for me ;)!
both config files that you have to modify, are located in the next directory (i hope that you know how to use ssh clients, such as putty):

/home/centovacast/vhosts/elektrana/etc

first were gonna modify the server.conf

in your server.conf file, that is line that looks like this
 
you have to modify it to whatever you want, but dont forget to leave /  (this is mount for sever status)
 
now we changed the status mount, so if you want to check server status, you now have to type in your browser yourserverdomain.com/status, instead of just typing yourserverdomain.com/.

below that line that we've just modified, you have to add new mount that will point to your /stream point, and it should look like this


then find all 1 tags in the server.conf file, and modify them to the 0, that tags will allow icecast to broadcast source title to the shoutcast.

close server.conf and save file.

now we have to modify source.conf
find 0 tag and modify it to 1, it will allow shoutcast to put your server to the shoutcast yp directory. close file and save it.

restart both, server and client apps from centova control panel, wait 10-15mins, and your server will be listed on shoutcast.

i hope ive helped ;).
hmm , i dont know why forum ate some of my lines, so ill post the picture.

Hi,

Im trying to follow your instructions, and maybe this is a stupid question, but do you need to set up a shoutcast stream too? or does your instructions do it automatically?

Im quite new to this so sorry if it sounds stupid, its just ive got my icecast working great but would love to relay to shoutcast too. I just don't know if i need to set up an addidtional shoutcast server?
