CHEEEEEEEEEERZ!
:)
 
any time , let me know if u need any more help
 
i've read the instructions and information you and the guys have shared, i do not use a router, the only things i use externally are a usb hub and a usb modem, i opened the ports you told me about and still no joy though
 
are you an aol usa customer?
 
Yip, I use AOL
UK customer though, not US
:)
 
welcome to my nightmares then i am aslo aol uk

you may need to call aol to request these ports to be unblocked 8000 and 8001

what firewalls do you use
 
the windows firewall that came with the pc and i also use norton
i have "unblocked" the ports as far as i am aware cos it asked which ones to unblock and i put in 800 8001 like you said before, still no joy though, i'll ask AOL what they reckon
:)
 
i have just spoken with AOL, they said as long as i am using a modem i do not need to unblock ports :S
now i am proper confused mate!
 
turn off the windows firewall

does it work now?

what encoder are you using?
 
C:\PROGRA~1\VIRTUA~1\lame_enc.dll
that's the encoder
i'll turn the firewall off and see whether that works, i don't like doing that though cos some nuttah could get on my computer and mess it all up
 
right then, i have left the firewall on, my mate can access the page, it doesn't load, it only connects...what is wrong there then mate?
 
try forcing windows media to connect

open Windows Media Player, select Open URL

type : http://yourip:8000/virtualdj.mp3

another player which is better is video lan

http://www.videolan.org/vlc/

its designed to listen to streams

if this fails

try streaming to an external server such as listen 2 my radio
 
i'll get him to try that
;)
 
my mate got this message....
Windows Media Player cannot play the file because a network error occurred. The server might not be available. Verify that you are connected to the network and that your proxy settings are correct
 
where is this going wrong ? ? ?
 
try using an external host see if that works

www.listen2myradio.com (free)
 
koOL
i have registered with listen2myradio
what do i type in the "broadcast to a radio server" in the vdj broadcast config?
it asks for the following...
server:
port:
name:
password:
genre:
i don't want to put the wrong information in.
 
login to listen to my radio

press install

then choose a name

and password

wait 30 minutes then like magic on the config tab of the website

all that info is there

just copy and paste

to vdj

then on the website turn the server on your good to go
