Thanks so much now because of you I have one of the best radio stations on he internet

[@luseres_j]

Thank you soo much I never heard of LadioCast but its free and just what I needed!

Hi, I have set everything up right and Ladio can connect to my streaming server. I can hear music from RadioLogik on my laptop but I cannot get the soundflower 1 and 1 to work together? So if I change RadioLogik to Soundflower1 and the same with ladio, the meters do not move in ladio? Does that make sense? Am I missing something? When radiologok is running I do hear the music on my macbook? EDIT: It works! I needed a reboot - I just can't figure out how to use my mac to input my inbuilt microphone?

[@gagsm11]

I have set up ladiocast to broadcast on a radio station, everything connects, im using th internal mic and speaker from my Mac but the audio is quiet and sounds "tinny", tried everything with the sound but it still is the same....what am I missing?

[@MacinMindSoftware]

Audio from Radiologik? Or audio from the Mic? Or both? Audio from Radiologik DJ should be unaltered and normal so I can't imagine what could be a problem. LadioCast does have a gain control. If this is about the mic, I would never consider using a built-in Mic for radio. I use a large diaphragm condenser mic. Giving mic advice is outside of my area of Radiologik support really.

I had to alter the sample rate to 128000 in ladiocast

im a dj and i download ladiocast to stream music but it only shows output i don't see my controller on input i need help plz... thanks in advance

[@MacinMindSoftware]

The video is not because I make or support LadioCast. My video is only showing how to use LadioCast with Radiologik which I do make and support. I don't know if you are asking about Radiologik. I also don't know what you mean by your controller. If you need help with Ladiocast, remember, it is free but maybe here blog.kawauso.com/ladiocast

[@mohsinworld]

I installed Soundflower and it added two input options "Soundflower (2ch) & (64ch) But how can I use them for example how can I use these audio pipes for play browser's system sound and iTunes for another audio pipe?

[@MacinMindSoftware]

Most applications don't allow you to set the audio output different than the default chosen in System Preferences--Sound--Output. Radiologik DJ does and encoders do so that's what this video is for. To do what you want, you need a more sophisticated app that can capture these other apps without selectable outputs. Checkout Loopback and Audio HiJack for that.

@@MacinMindSoftware No other way? I need a free solution for a client who likes to have a free solution.

Do these streaming servers have real-time encoders? my entire music library is in wav format.

[@MacinMindSoftware]

icecast and shoutcast are streaming servers. The encoder shown here is LadioCast encoding audio that is being played live in Radiologik DJ but can be any audio input device. Radiologik DJ can play wav files but it's not recommended at all because iTunes won't write metadata to tags in wav files and Radiologik DJ will not read anything tags either so that's severely limiting. Radiologik DJ supports mp3, aac, Apple Lossless, and AIFF (which is the closest equivalent to wav). You could convert all your wav files to Apple Lossless or AIFF and you'd be good.

@@MacinMindSoftware Great, thanks! Radiologik DJ is number one on my list. I wanna have my own 24/7 online radio station. I still have another 1500 records to be digitized.

[@Darren-wk4hp]

Is the software fully compatible with Shoutcast?

[@MacinMindSoftware]

If by "the software" you mean LadioCast, yes, it supports Shoutcast as mentioned in the video so I assume it is fully compatible. Radiologik is fully compatible with LadioCast so you should have all you need.

Hello, have we to dl Icecast ? and what address we have to give to listeners ?

[@MacinMindSoftware]

In the Help for Radiologik DJ, I show how to install icecast. macinmind.com/Help/Radiologik/DJ/index.htm#icecast

[@sbengz7487]

@@MacinMindSoftware sry for my eng, my question was : is it possible to give an extern address to listeners on internet ? for exemple for friends or community ? Thank you

[@MacinMindSoftware]

​@@sbengz7487 I don't get deep into the subject of internet radio streaming but am just showing how to make things work with Radiologik. On the Mac you can use Audio HiJack, LadioCast or BUTT to encode to mp3 or AAC+. You can install icecast or shoutcast to serve from your own Mac. Or for a larger audience and ease, you can use a streaming host such as yesstreaming.

[@sbengz7487]

@@MacinMindSoftware ok i understand, but thank you for your answers and your tutoriel. very interesting. I think there is maybe a solution for output (or broadcast ?) to external port internet. I come from PC, and i was usings Winamp with Edcast + icecast but a problem of dsp_edcast.dll unsolvable came me for go to try to mac. I begin and novice but interesting .)) Thanks
