Yea you press open or save as.. its going to come as a file.
After the file downloads and opens with windows media player, you can hear your streaming there.
Tell me if you need any more help.

yeh i click on the open file and it seems to just be stuck on downloading file, nothing happens after that. i dont get windows media player opening i no that much, could be a problem with the encoder, i downloaded the lame dll and saved it into my music folder, maybe that was wrong.

Man.. I'm getting problems myself!! I used it before once.. like a couple years ago. But now I have a radio station at listen2myradio.com and now I dont need that.
You should try it if you want to broadcast to other people.. for now. Maybe someone will come and help US out.

Here's what i do:
In the config options you have 2 ways to broadcast - as an ogg or as an mp3. I use mp3 and select the quality - depending on your bandwidth of your internet connection you can variate this - the lower the bitrate - the more listeners can listen without it breaking up on them.
Now - the most important thing is - if you are using a router - you have to make sure your ports are forwarded thru the firewall for it to get "outside" your router.
From that point - any pc - you should be able to type in the address exactly as it appears - ie, http://123.345.789.234/Virtualdj.mp3 - the user that types that in will get the OPEN or SAVE prompt - if they select OPEN then the default application they use to listen to MP3's should open and it will take a couple of seconds to buffer but then is should start playing.
I usually tell my friends that want to listen to use WINAMP - in there in the pulldown menu's there is an option to OPEN LOCATION - they type that address and and good to go.
