How to create your own web radio...

This guide will show you step-by-step how to create your own web radio stream using SwissCenter's stream relay service.

 

How it works

 

Required software

 
  • Winamp (MP3/OGG player for Microsoft Windows)
  • OddCast DSP (Winamp plugin for realtime streaming)
 
 

Configuration of the OddCast DSP plugin

 

Open Winamp and go to Options > Preferences > DSP/Effect > OddCast DSP.In the window that opens, create a new stream: Click on Add encoder. A new stream is now created: right-click > Configure.

Example stream configuration:

Accessing an MP3 / OGG stream from the Internet

 

You can use any software that can read MP3 or OGG Vorbis streams, including Winamp, QuickTime, iTunes, etc. Enter the URL of your stream. For example: http://streaming.swisscenter.com:8002/stream.mp3 (refer to the information used during plugin configuration, above).
