Loud and clear (ish at that bit rate)

Appreciated :D
Next time I'll actually up the bit-rate...

Just making sure that my router set-up etc is ok... Will actually work on the *content* now ;)

Edit : Bit-rate upped...should be 96K Stereo now :D

I usually have about 24kbs mono for mine
and you know what that sounds like, if you up the bitrate you can have less listeners, but you prolly know that already :)
folk me up please

Yes...
...but what about your interweb connection?

/predictable response

pfft
wish Moose would sort this out
( Dill, Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:12, archived)

Halved to 48K Stereo...
How's that?
( The Teviot Moose major 5th., Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:12, archived)

all right for me
you don't really need it to be super quality
24kbs and mono is fine
( Dill, Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:13, archived)

Still needing to rebuffer here...
...but on dialup...probably alright for those with sensible girth.

Dropped to 24 Mono...
Will work out best options at a later date...
( The Teviot Moose major 5th., Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:16, archived)

Don't use stereo.
It adds very little but halves the quality you get for the bitrate.

this
now if you can just sort out your titles, we're laughing,
good lord is that runrig?
( Dill, Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:20, archived)

Yes it is! I'm just throwing various tunes out at the mo...
I'll need to look at my options and stuff to sort out the titles..

Edit : Let me know when the next tune comes along if you get a title...
( The Teviot Moose major 5th., Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:22, archived)

it's showing the runrig title now
edit/ and now cowboy junkies

Hurrah! I'm getting there.
Slowly..

Edit: Got about an hour of randomish stuff queue up, so I'll keep going for a while!

I'll follow maybe

Moose music
well done matey

WinAmp rather than SAM
so very basic, but I'll slowly get myself sorted out... It was the whole techy bit that I was worried about.

However Lu's guide was perfect! Thanks Lu (if you're still about)
( The Teviot Moose major 5th., Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:05, archived)

been using just winamp meself recently
:)

edit/ yeah Lu is the helpful queen of shoutcast
( Dill, Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:07, archived)

Is Winamp OK nowadays?
I stopped using it years ago because the newer version kept borking and took ages to open.
( Druid, Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:15, archived)

I find it very fiddly....
*strokes itunes*
( Wicca'd Witch needs ideas for a new sig on..., Sun 3 Jul 2005, 12:17, archived)

I agree WinAmp is fiddly.
But more friendly than WMP for interwebby stuff it seems.
