Outbound Broadcasting

Guide:

1. (OPTIONAL) Enable Serve webpage for broadcast metadata setting under Settings > Functions.

   This provides a landing page for listeners at http://localhost:7590/radio/ which servers a web player and information about the current track including album art, progress of current track and lyrics.

2. (OPTIONAL) Create a new playlist of tracks you wish to stream

3. From player top bar click MENU and select Start Broadcast to begin the broadcast

   You should then see a blue highlight that shows the currently streaming track.

   The raw stream can be reached on http://localhost:8000 (On some systems you may need to enter http://0.0.0.0:8000 for loop-back)

4. Right click a track and select Broadcast This to stream a track immediately and continue from that location in the playlist.

Note: The codec used is OGG.

Note: Modifying the number of tracks in playlist that appear before the broadcast marker will impact the broadcast position. (So avoid doing this while a broadcast is active. You can still safely add tracks after the broadcasting track.)

Troubleshooting: Make sure port 8000 isn't already in use by another application.

Hint: In order for stream to be accessible from outside internet; Ports 8000 (for audio) and optionally 7590 (For landing page) need to be open.

Hint: Some web browsers don't handle restarting the stream well, try refresh the page a few times if it gets stuck.
