When using software that connects to your radio stream so you can stream live from a home or office setting you will need the following information.
- IP/Host - In Centova check your quicklinks section. This will give you your IP address.
- Port - This can also be found in your Centova control panel quick links section.
- Mount - This is usually either /stream or /live
- Password - This is the streaming password, not the control panel password although they are very similar. Tip is to use the control panel password with the letters "dj" added to the end of it. If you still want to see the whole thing you can find the password located in your settings in Centova control panel. There are two passwords located there. Be sure to use the correct one :)
- Login - This is not your control panel username. Normally the username/login name they are looking for here is simply "source" without the quotes of course.
- Type - ShoutCast or IceCast
