blulite

i thought id pop by and bump this up because even after three months i still havent been able to work out how this is supposed to be free to use at all... why dont forum moderators, or software programmers pipe up and give us end users some help???

ok, so im working on an online radio station and need to know where i have to put the links for broadwave to detect it and allow me to use it for free. also my website is still in development so is taken down periodically for bug fixes and further development. will this cause issues with using the software for free?? i really need this software whilst im developing the site as well as once its complete. i just cant do any tests with my trial ran out and/or the links not in my site.

this is really frustrating as i need to setup my equipment to run correctly and also setup my streams on the site and ensure they are working each time i further develop the site.

please can someone help me with these issues, im now falling behind with the project.... thanks, john.

Hi

 

Some quick answers,

 

1: Don't know, I don't think so. See below for an alternative handy name.

 

2: Yes, if you leave off the parameters it assumes the default live stream number 1 and the default bitrate. 56 or 64 whatever you configured.

In fact, I append a handy reference name to the end of my string, which broadwave ignores, but allows me to see quickly which stream it is:

http etc broadwave.mp3?id=myname

Broadwave ignores the id, and myname is my handy tag to remind me which stream it is. Change that to whatever you want.

 

3: Sorry, can't answer that as my streams are not accessible from a website, but only for private streaming.

tanks for the reply ken, in regards to your Q2 responce, could you please instruct me on how to change the handy tag? im super noob to this software and therefore am not really sure of what to do. hopefully tohugh i will be before the launch of my radio station.

use an html object place holder, add the flash code from your broadwave connect page into the object and hay presto...

hi guys, i have recently moved to Broadwave for my audio streaming, i have everything all setup and running smoothly, the only issues i have are these;

1. is it possible to have my own personal stream name used for the .asx .m3u etc files that are used to stream to the player of choice? i would like listeners to be able to have the option to save the file and not have to rename it.

2. is it possible to have a link named as desired also, so for example, instead of having "http://12.345.678.910:88/broadwave.m3u?src=1&rate=1" could i have http://mystream.com/broadwave.m3u etc??

my next question is this

where do i add the link on my website to allow me to use the software for free?? my site is in the testing stages and is currently up and down but will become fully active pretty soon. in the meantime i would like to ad the links to my site and the nch logo to my footer. do i need to add the link to my html code, or can i add it as a linked image?

help is appreciated, thanks.
