Hello Everyone! My name is John Silvers PD/CE of Pirate Radio 100.3FM (KQLZ Los Angeles) I wanted to introduce myself to everyone. We are switching over from our 2072 Shoutcast streams to Ogg with the help from Dave at Mediacast1. It seems mp3PRO is just not catching on but the I think the ogg sounds way better then mp3PRO and not just one player can hear the difference plus no plug-in to push on people to download and install. The question I have is How do I get listed in the YP? I have the code in place but I don't see the station listed anywhere. ---- <directory> <yp-url-timeout>15</yp-url-timeout> <yp-url>http://dir.xiph.org/cgi-bin/yp-cgi</yp-url> </directory> ---- I see myself on Oddsock and radiotoolbox but not icecast.org. It's not a big deal right now since I am doing some testing anyway but I wanted to know if there was a place I had to sign-up to get listed. Thanks!

You should know not all players support OGG without plugins either. Mp3 will play in 98% of the software. I've tested it in Winamp,Media Player, Realplayer Did you remove the <!--- and the --> around the directory section? Also icecast would need access to outgoing port 80. Or it could be this from the FAQ First of all, icecast must have been built with YP support. This is automatically done if you have libcurl installed. If libcurl is not detected when icecats is compiled, then YP support is disabled. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John" <john@kqlz.org> To: <icecast@xiph.org> Sent: Tuesday, September 28, 2004 12:30 AM Subject: [Icecast] Hello and Stream Listing> Hello Everyone! > My name is John Silvers PD/CE of Pirate Radio 100.3FM (KQLZ Los Angeles) > > I wanted to introduce myself to everyone. > We are switching over from our 2072 Shoutcast streams to Ogg with the help > from Dave at Mediacast1. > It seems mp3PRO is just not catching on but the I think the ogg sounds way > better then mp3PRO and not just one player can hear the difference plus no > plug-in to push on people to download and install. > > The question I have is How do I get listed in the YP? > I have the code in place but I don't see the station listed anywhere. > ---- > <directory> > <yp-url-timeout>15</yp-url-timeout> > <yp-url>http://dir.xiph.org/cgi-bin/yp-cgi</yp-url> > </directory> > ---- > I see myself on Oddsock and radiotoolbox but not icecast.org. > It's not a big deal right now since I am doing some testing anyway but I > wanted to know if there was a place I had to sign-up to get listed. > > Thanks! > John Silvers PD/CE > Pirate Radio 100.3 FM > http://www.kqlz.org > > > > _______________________________________________ > Icecast mailing list > Icecast@xiph.org > http://lists.xiph.org/mailman/listinfo/icecast >
Hello Jason, Jason wrote:> Did you remove the <!--- and the --> around the directory section? > Also icecast would need access to outgoing port 80.I have limited control of the streaming server. I have a web control panel and that's with a few setting that can be changed. (start and stop the server, change passwords, setup relays and enter YP servers) There is a section "You can enter up to 5 yp directory servers" with the radiotoolbox, oddsock and icecast already in it. All I see in the box is what I posted.> Or it could be this from the FAQ > First of all, icecast must have been built with YP support. This is > automatically done if you have libcurl installed.

I wish I could see the error logs from the server that might give me a better clue on what's happening. The only options I have are "List MountPoints | Move Listeners | Stats | Status Page " that's it! John Silvers PD/CE Pirate Radio 100.3 FM http://www.kqlz.org
