Could this be possibly what you're after?
yea something like this but more in depth explanation of how to set everything up
I'f im not wrong it's only working for edcast right?
Here you can find a good tutorial on how to setup the broadcast itself. Only problem is that the images aint working anymore.

Sorry mate for not linking it, im pretty tired :D
this is more for windows users im just looking for something simple, free and for mac =]
If you feel up to the task of dealing with terminal commands then you should check out ice-cast. you would still need a host server to broadcast it though.
for an example listen2myradio.com???
and i cant find the download link for mac osx....
its a very raw program. i dont think I found a link either, i did the downloads and updates all through terminal. dont remember the commands exactly.
attached is a video that is tailored show how to install and use twitter dj, however I believe it also shows how to install ice-cast. quite tricky to get used to terminal commands if your new to it.
also check here for more info:

good luck.
weres the video?
hmmm i re attached it and it still doesnt show.
you can find it here:

on the left hand side.
probably lazy and crude compared to what others are recommending, I run the record out of my mixer to another sound card on the same laptop, and put that soundcard through stickam.com.
seems to work well enough, so long as there's enough USB ports for everything.
i use nicecast to do my radio show, pretty awesome program, not very hard to set up.
well i tryed out nice cast and its only sending music through one of my decks is there any other program/plugin i need to install to get both channels running? and so that the listeners dont hear what im cueing up..
*palm to face for not knowing about nice-cast.
what do you guys (and or gals) set the source at, application>traktor? or Audio Device
bumping this question... ?Quote:

you could very easily just use ustream and route the audio from your soundcard to the line in on your computer.....
webcams cost like 30 bucks too... so you could even do video?
Skype or iChat both work fine.
I literally just spent 5 minutes and got nicecast working on my macbook pro. Stupid simple program, and does exactly what you were looking for I believe. Something I've been planning on looking into as well, but just haven't gotten around to yet.
Enjoyable.
Nicecast is a great program.
If you want to attach song-metadata (artist, title) to your Nicecast-stream use my Traktor Scrobbler.
www.ali.dj/traktor-scrobbler
Native instruments in all there wisdom embedded a dedicated broadcast client into Traktor
whats good for some (germans) isn't always best for others unfortunately there isnt alot you can do about inside traktor itself
so the options your left with are.
A) Use Icecast! Icecast is probably the best FREE server software for streaming media.
Yes it takes a buttload of time to setup and perfect but the rewards are definitely worth the time it takes to set up.
especially if your hosting your own content on your own servers
Icecast can be used directly by compiling the source on a mac or downloading the setup.exe for windows
or by using a third party Icecast application
Nicecast is very good.Quote:

for this on a mac you'll need SoundFlower(Audio) and Camtwist(Video)
on Pc im sure there are similar apps
tbh - I found icecast to be a heap of shit. Tried using it in Traktor 3 to no avail, largely as I needed to reencode on the fly from .ogg to .mp3 as 90% of the internet radio world uses the shoutcast protocol ...Quote:

the bigger challenge you run into is bandwidth. home connections really arent setup to stream to more than a few listeners. you really need an icecast host server if you want to do something pretty regular. you can generally find icecast servers for rent for about 15 bucks a month on average for about a 100 listener stream at 192k per stream
Hey people ;) Im broadcasting with IceCast... I have 1 question.. How can I hide the titles of the tracks ?
Should be possible in the Icecast-settings.
This is the default IceCast config file... I dont see the option to hide the track titles... :confused:
When I googled about this problem.. I found out thatCode:<!-- This config file contains a minimal set of configurable parameters,
and mostly just contains the things you need to change. We created
this for those who got scared away from the rather large and heavily
commented icecast.xml.dist file. -->

You could try this setting:
and set it to a very big value. I'm not sure whether this works though.Quote:
<mp3-metadata-interval>4096</mp3-metadata-interval>
Another way would be transcoding the stream to shoutcast. You loose the metadata this way as well.
I have to add this into the default config file ? I dont understand...
Yeah try that but rather use something like
<mp3-metadata-interval>4096000</mp3-metadata-interval>
The documentation doesn't say much about it.
I don't know much (anything) about icecast, but I do know a lot about Google and this was the first result when I googled how to change the config file in icecast.
http://en.flossmanuals.net/icecast/basic-config/
It says nothing about the metadata-stuff. This is the official documentation page of the latest Icecast-version:Quote:

Ok.. so when I add this.. nothing happens..Code:<mount>
<mount-name>/example-complex.ogg</mount-name>
<username>othersource</username>
<password>hackmemore</password>
<max-listeners>1</max-listeners>
<max-listener-duration>3600</max-listener-duration>

</authentication>
<on-connect>/home/icecast/bin/source-start</on-connect>
<on-disconnect>/home/icecast/bin/source-end</on-disconnect>
</mount>
Then I see that there are some lines that I think I need to fill out with the info that I wrote in the traktor broadcast settings
In Traktor I wrote live.ogg ... so I change this toCode:<mount-name>/example-complex.ogg</mount-name>
- Nothing happends againCode:<mount-name>/live.ogg</mount-name>
I changed it to
- without "/"Code:<mount-name>live.ogg</mount-name>
Then I saw that the defaul number of max listeners is 1 ?? Wtf
also I changed these lines to be the same like my TraktorCode:<max-listeners>1</max-listeners>
Code:<stream-name>My audio stream</stream-name>
<stream-description>My audio description</stream-description>
<stream-url>http://some.place.com</stream-url>
<genre>classical</genre>
<bitrate>64</bitrate>
and again NOTHING HAPPENDS :(
Also try http://mixlr.com/
great serviceQuote:

I was gonna say something about that but, then the mental blocade kicks-in with this specific comic: http://xkcd.com/386/
