Airtime by default broadcast on 2 streams. Can broadcast on 3? [Solved]
  • Hello! I'm PePo,Owner of Trance-Energy Radio.
    'Til now we used on Airtime two streams, 192kbps and 96kbps.
    Recently we brought brand new servers, more powerful and we decided to release even the 320kbps.
    On Airtime panel there's a 3rd ption for stream, but if I complete it will give me error. 
    I've made a search on the forum about and didn't get many answers but only the one that Airtime is seted by default to a max 2 streams.
    Can anyone tell me if we can use 3 streams in same time and how?
    320kbps is amazing as quality of sound, 192kbps sounds good for ppl with a lower internet connection and 96kbps runs good even for mobile devices. That's why I want to use all 3 streams.
    Thank You!

    P.S. This is the error i have at stream 3:
    Can not connect to the streaming server.
    403, too many sources connected (HTTP/1.0)

  • Hello! You might need to change a setting on your server. Are you running Icecast or Shoutcast?
  • Look  at the top of your icecast xml you should see some thing like this
     <limits>
    <clients>100</clients>
    <sources>2</sources>
    <queue-size>102400</queue-size>
    <client-timeout>30</client-timeout>
    <header-timeout>15</header-timeout>
    <source-timeout>10</source-timeout>
    <burst-on-connect>1</burst-on-connect>
    <burst-size>65536</burst-size>
    </limits>

    Change the number 2 to something like 5 or 10 or whatever

    <sources>2</sources>

    you should not have that problem with shoutcast

  • You're half way there! Did you restart Icecast or hit "Reload Config" in the web admin panel?
