that's really odd. can you post/pm your config file minus passwords of course.

well the good thing is steamcast.com is customizable based on your player preference seeing as we have no concern for media player tools

So if you are looking for streams for windows media check out www.steamcast.com

hmm does it always display that there are no sources when in relay? Or is this happening after a relay get's booted or dropped by it's master server?

As for the API, it's going to take time. I have to focus on core functionality before getting to the api stuff.

kicked back the white back ground a bit.

nsv
nsa

I will of course always been interested in new upcoming formats that I can package support for, however alot of streaming formats do not really require special attention like ...

yea I understand this, the only concern about this I have is the same as SHOUTcast's What real purpose does that serv? The admin interface is built for the use of the station operator not the listeners or the general public for that matter. Wouldn't it be far better to just have this integrate with ...

lotta questions here, I will try to nail them all but if you have more don't hesitate to ask:
