Streaming Live and Pre-Recorded

[TexasHank]

I've just downloaded BroadWave in order to evaluate it and am impressed, I've been able to get it to broadcast, I've been able to create streams etc, but the one thing I really need to do is be able to fire off a pre-recorded audio file during the broadcast.

 

I've searched and found a discussion about this under Windows 7 but I'm running XP and can't find any instructions on how to accomplish what I need, if anyone has advice on how to do this, or a link to instructions I'd greatly appreciate it.

 

Thanks

Hi Hank

 

With Broadwave alone, you need to specify the URL of the stream when connecting, either the live stream or a pre-recorded file, as far as I'm aware.

 

However when you use Broadwave in conjunction with another program to select the audio, it's a very powerful combination.

 

With XP and a good soundcard which allows "stereo mix" to be selected as a recording device in audio properties, then you use Broadwave to stream the audio being played by the PC. In my case, I use the program Zara Radio (the free version) to play either pre-recorded audio files or select the line in (Zara calls it "satellite input") to relay live audio though the PC's line in connector.
