setting up traktor for broadcast with icecast

i cant seem to find a thread which would help me with setting up traktor for broadcast with icecast. can somebody help me with this?

2

Im not 100% sure what your doing here. Can you fill me in?

Streaming the set over the internet through Traktor. Posting your track list to Twitter live. Don’t know much myself, but have been meaning to do some research.

Are you on a PC or mac? I hear Nicecast works better with Mac.

So I can have my very own pirate radio from my house. Got to check into this.

You betcha, with video if you want!!

But sint there bandwidth restrictiosn ie only 10 peeps can listen or something unless youre sitting on a t1 line?

i dont think so/ i hope not

You have to have a pretty good bandwidth. Plus technically you need to be licensed to play the music. Services like Live365 handle all of the license fees and bandwidth, but it’ll cost.

Many just broadcast bootleg kind of like pirate radio, but they don’t run any adds or crap like that.
