MP3 Server Menu

The MP3 Server menu allows you to input and set up your server settings.

• The Title field allows you to enter the name of the encoder.

• The Server field should contain the URL of the server, including the port, in the following format:

“streamingserver.example.com:8000”

• The Mount Point field (for Icecast 2 servers) should contain the mount point on the server, in the

following format: “/example1.mp3” following the server name.

• Enabling the Allow Public Listing control sets the “public listing allowed” flag in the stream, as

determined by the server.

• The Server Type control allows you to choose between Shoutcast and Icecast2.

• The URL field is a metadata field whose information is sent to the server to be (potentially)

displayed in the listings and player. The URL is typically the station’s official home page.

• The User Name field contains the user (log-in) name for the server.

• The Password field contains the password for the server.

• The Genre field is also a metadata field. The type or style of content found on the stream is

typically entered here.

• The Apply Immediately control determines whether any changes you make to the server settings

take effect immediately or when you manually reconnect.
