Ingenious Streaming Media DJ V1 (SHOUTcast)

Where is a good place to buy a SHOUTcast stream?

The best price I’ve came across and whose service I currently use is nEo Stream Services ( http://neostreams.info/products/audio-stream/internet-audio-streams/ ). These guys charge $3.60 USD per month for a 30 listener stream. That’s usually more than enough for most people, but they do have streams that allow higher listener counts.

How do I add songs to the audio queue?

You add songs by clicking the folder icon and when the open file dialog pops up you can select one file or multiple files by holding down the ctrl key and left clicking on each one you’d like to add.

How do I remove a song from the audio queue?

Place your mouse over the song and right click on it. A message box will appear asking you if you’d like to remove it from the queue.

Can I reorder my playlist?

Yes, you do this by dragging the music tracks with your mouse and dropping them where you need them in the list.

I have some music files that are not MP3s, will you add support for different formats?

Yes, there are planned releases in the future that will include other popular music formats.

How do I get future updates?

The installer used with this software checks for updates each time you run the program. If there has been any updates released it will ask you to update.
