/Program Files/Shoutcast/sc_serv.ini. A number of cosmetic points, such as the name of the server, can be
set up there. You should also use the "Password = (your password)" option to protect the server against
overly communicative users of your network.
The text console of the Shoutcast server during startup
Double-click sc_serv.exe to launch the Shoutcast server. A text console will open, informing you of the
status of the server. And with that, you have set up your Shoutcast transmitter—all you need now is to
send some content to it using the Winamp player.
Very few things need to be set up here, and they are all available in the Winamp configuration: right-click,
Options, Preferences. First, integrate the Shoutcast relay plugin into the signal chain. Simply select "Null-
soft Shoutcast Source Plugin" under "Plugin/DSP Effect". The configuration of the plugin should now open
automatically. If not, open it manually with "Configure Active Plugin".
The Winamp default settings
The Input, Output and Encoder tabs require special attention here. The Input tab should normally specify
"Winamp". You can, of course choose an audio input of the computer to create a PC babyphone or another
"listening device". Under Encoder, select an ear-friendly bit rate—128k to 192k would be appropriate.
Under Output, specify the local Shoutcast server and its password in a profile. If Winamp and the Shoutcast
server are located on the same machine, enter "localhost" as the server. Click "Connect" and Winamp will
set up the connection. Both Winamp and the server will signal this in their diagnostic displays.
