Procedure to make an radio stream

[SOL2]

Hi, i'm a newbee and like to use RDJ to distribute our radio streams in an reliable planning. What is the right procedure to get this right?

you've got it backwards.
radiodj creates the content
a icecast server creates the stream
you make it sound like you already have the streams 

[SOL2]

you've got it backwards.

Sorry, I don't. We have three seperate streams we want to schedule. Several people told me that was possible with RDJ. I want to paste the stream addresses but that's impossible.

[stevewa]

why is it impossible? do you mean they are private streams and you cannot post them in a public forum?

i assume english is not your native language.

do you want to have RadioDJ play the external streams (http / https), using RadioJD only to schedule the playback of the streams? that is the part that you did not explain well, so that is why I said you had it backwards.

[SOL2]

First of all, apologies for my late response. You are right, English is indeed not my native language.
Back to the problem.
I have two streams that I would like to play, nothing else. In an organized schedule.
This is stream 1: https://live.i-novativeradio.com/sol2nonstop.
I think that is a regular stream.
I follow this procedure:
Track import,
Tracktype Internet stream, Press Import and then nothing goes on anymore, I get stuck.

Thxs in advance,
Will

On opening the screen the will blink as warning is empty Path/URL.

Clicking on will check rf the URL is correct.

I did what you descript, what will be the next step? Import?
And how to add it to a playlist?

Hi !

After that, U can for example create a rotation or a playlist by importing your stream tracks.

Do U know how create a playlist or a rotation or do U want more explanations ?

Ok !

Let's get a look to this video to learn how to create playlist or rotation.

The most important is importing your exact URL like in my attach file and after U can create your playlist with several elements.

With pleasure helping you !

I use the http you set, but got no connection, stream broken?

Hey Jhonny... if you copied and pasted the stream it won't work because there is a period ( full stop .) at the end of the address. Remove the full stop and it works.

Also hopefully @SOL2 is filling in the Category; Subcategory; Genre and Track Type before entering the Path/URL.

Hope this helps...

[Jhonny]

Yep the dot removed and its working.

Hi to ya all and thxs for your posts.
I Kinda get used to it all, I do however have another question.

I use 2 different streams, and I want them to play on a time schedule.
Let's say, stream 1 from 06.00 till 19.00 the other from 19.00 till 22.00 and than again between 0.00 till 06.00.

How do I schedule that?

[Sebastien]

Hi !

U have just to create three events in RadioDJ.

Each event must start the good streams each day at time.

And after U just have to stream this final output in your system.

Good luck ! And share with me your end job.
