yeah I wanna know what I need to do to prepare for this slot stuff

2/27/2008 9:35:28 PM

repost for page 3:

well i saved a pic of the Program Schedule i just created...hopefully it looks alright.

I put everyones times to fit in with order of when they posted, then put down anyone who couldnt fit as close possible to the time/day they requested. We need some DJs on friday haha. If i forgot anyone, let me know...I didnt put yoshies stuff about RHCP and Muse, and i also didnt add Wilso's until he lets me know a better time.

2/27/2008 9:36:00 PM

i can probably do something from 8-9 every morning. or somewhere around 9:30

but thats if i remember to do it. and thats if i need a microphone.

2/27/2008 9:38:06 PM

i'll do 9-10pm on tuesday

2/27/2008 9:38:06 PM

can i nominate ronny to host the emo cockcrow tuesday and thursday mornings?

2/27/2008 9:38:40 PM

lawl, im not gonna update the spreadsheet immediately, im gonna wait for more responses before i fix yours wilso, so dont worry

i guess i could color code this better haha, maybe have a different color for each user who has a program so that a key could be made...although that might get a little too stupid looking

2/27/2008 9:40:52 PM

thank you for using Shoutcast.

2/27/2008 11:01:12 PM

When this gets closer to actually getting underway, I would like to meet with someone who can show me around the software. Does anyone know what software it is, maybe I can just poke around it and figure it out myself.

2/27/2008 11:06:55 PM

haaay.

jtmoney: email me that spreadsheet, if you would. e.k@ncsu.edu

2/27/2008 11:07:58 PM

minimum requirements for hosting a show:

1) a broadband internet connection with AT LEAST 128kbps upload. more is better. this is VERY IMPORTANT.

2) a computer running either windows xp or windows vista (if you're on a mac or use linux, PM me.)

3) commitment to DJ your show(s) during the times you are scheduled. dead air will not be tolerated. if you don't show up for 2 of your shows in a row, all of your shows will be canceled until you prove to me that you're able to host your shows.

4) you aren't behind a proxy or any sort of extravagant network setup (a simple home router is fine)

5) if you're behind a NATting router, you have the ability to map ports to your IP.

6) if you're behind a firewall, you have the ability to unblock 2 incoming ports.



optional requirements:

1) a microphone. it's HIGHLY PREFERRED that you have one. listening to music + robotic voices gets old after a while, if you haven't already noticed.



the software used will include:

1) a custom (i.e. i changed a bunch of stuff) version of the IceCast DNAS
2) SAM Broadcaster 4.2.2
3) a dynamic DNS client of your choosing.

SAM is the easiest and most user friendly way of doing it - i use DRS2006 for the main stream, but it's got a pretty steep learning curve.

if you don't want to use SAM, you also have the option of downloading WinAmp and the SHOUTcast DSP plugin and just streaming a winamp playlist for your show... although this is pretty boring. i'd rather everyone use SAM so we can hear your voice and you can do fun things on the air.

if you know what you're doing when it comes to radio automation/internet broadcasting, you may use whatever software you want as long as it can stream to the DNAS on your machine.



how it will work:

1) around 5 minutes before the scheduled start time of your show, go ahead and load up the IceCast DNAS and SAM, and get everything ready.
2) connect a SAM encoder to your local DNAS and start encoding
3) at your scheduled start time, the main streaming server will connect to your local DNAS as a client (you will see it connect, and SAM will show 1 listener)
4) once the main server is connected, you will be live on the air.
5) at the scheduled end time of your show, the main server will disconnect from your local DNAS (you'll see this happen also) - once this happens, you're not on the air any longer.

detailed instructions will be made available, i promise.

2/27/2008 11:20:55 PM

whoa whoa whoa those programs you listed cost $$

I do not agree with $$

2/27/2008 11:22:03 PM

according to that spreadsheet I'm scheduled for 4-5 on monday and 3-4 on wednesday. The monday slot is fine, but I can't start until 4 so the Wed. slot won't work for me.

2/27/2008 11:22:36 PM

2/27/2008 11:34:01 PM

it's honestly not as complicated as it sounds

the hardest part is setting it all up

once it's set up, it'll just *work*

i promise, i've tried it quite a few times

2/27/2008 11:34:43 PM

2/27/2008 11:35:23 PM

what?

2/27/2008 11:37:58 PM

long time listener, first time caller, love your show

but why are we being subjected to repeated tracy chapman

2/27/2008 11:38:45 PM

nothing. I just asked a quick Q earlier. I'm sure it's answered somewhere in this thread (or the other one). Just didn't feel like sifting through...

I'll look though

2/27/2008 11:40:23 PM

slight technical difficulties and Evan isn't home to fix it.

2/27/2008 11:40:25 PM

yeah this is a technical disaster more like

i can't imagine anything worse

[insert marko's starving kid photo]

2/27/2008 11:42:27 PM

im ready to host a show

once evan makes it possible

2/27/2008 11:48:18 PM

I'm excited about it

If evan says it will *work* then it will work.

okay, so

whoever requested that i syndiacte rush limbaugh

i'm willing to do it on a trial basis, although i'm not sure if we'll keep it or not - i personally hate talk radio, and it's in the prime part of the day... pretty sure the majority of people would rather hear music. they can hear rush limbaugh on an AM station somewhere.

BUT... like i said, i'm willing to try it.

you need to buy me a membership so i can get the feed ($6.95/month)

2/28/2008 2:08:12 AM

ahah consider that block cancelled...i hesitated puting it down, and even after i put it down i took an hour off cause 3 hours seemed nuts
