F.A.Q.

Help! It doesn't work!

- Make sure you have entered the right stream IP and port.
- Make sure you removed the http:// from the stream IP!
- Make sure your radiostation is running Shoutcast 1.x.x (NOT Shoutcast V2!).
- Make sure your host allows outgoing connections on the port you specified.

 

 

-- DOCUMENTATION --

Editing the style/text of the block.

1. To edit the style of the block, simple open up:
   /packages/shoutcast/blocks/shoutcast/view.php
2. You can edit the looks of it by modifying the style="" property of the DIV called SCBlock...
3. You can edit the "loading" text and replace it with some image or w/e, simply remove the <?php echo t("loading")?> and replace it with your own HTML.

 

1. Any other text can be found in:
2. /packages/shoutcast/blocks/shoutcast/getdata.php

I think you can figure the rest out on your own.

If you still have any questions please send me a PM.

 

Information about the Stream ID (Shoutcast V2 only)

If your Shoutcast host is having multiple radiostations at the same port (for example port 80), you need to enter a Stream ID to identify the right radiostation (yours!). You can find your Stream ID in your Shoutcast control panel.
You can also see it in the URL, check the URL for something like: &sid=[yournumber] (without the brackets). yournumber is your Stream ID.

If you do not own the radiostation, you have to find the Stream ID. It is very easy to do:

1. Look for the stream URL of your radio station.
2. Look for "sid" in the URL and check the number after it, thats your Stream ID.
