Multiple Dj´s in Airtime
  • Hi experts :)

    I need help.

    I have a Airtime located on a server in Jutland (a part of Denmark)
    and then I have 3 dj´s located in other parts of the country.

    The djs send live at different times of the week and then we want Airtime
    to take over in between.

    Today we use a Shoutcast server (also our own) and the djs connect through winamp with a DSP-plugin.

    We want to make it possible so the djs dont have to log on to Airtime and disconnect its connection to the server before they connect through winamp, but instead take advantage of the new options:
    * Master Source
    * Show Source
    * Scheduled Play

    How do we do that using Shoutcast/ Winamp with the DSP-plugin?
    Do we need a extra Shoutcast server or?

    The port we use on Shoutcast is 8000

    with the last version of airtime 2.2, you can connect and disconnect streams (master and show source) automatically.

    system/stream
    auto switch on/off
  • Hi Albert, (thx for your reply)

    I know that, but I´m searching for instruction on how to set it up in Airtime and Shoutcast...

    I qoute:
    "We want to make it possible so the djs dont have to log on to Airtime

    winamp, but instead take advantage of the new options:

    * Scheduled Play

    "


    Meaning that we want it to work so when the dj´s press Connect in the winamp DSP-plugin it overrides the Airtime stream, and when the dj disconnects again, Airtime takes over.

    How do we make that setup?

    no, you only need to say at your dsp-plugin to connect on the port and password you give for the master source or show source
    liquidsoap catch directly the stream

    the scheduled play is not available in this case, streams bypass it

  • Ok :) Think I get it.
    But the "Scheduled Play" will start when the external stream disconnects, right?

    in fact is played during your stream and continue when you disconnect
