Broadcasting your own streams

    Audion allows you to create your own streaming MP3 radio stations! All you need to do is pick some music, install a Shoutcast server (or use an free service like Live365), and start streaming! To broadcast your audio:
    1 Begin playing the audio you wish to stream in Audion (most likely a playlist)
    2 Choose Stream from the Tools menu
    3 Choose Audion from the Streaming Device pop-up
    4 Select the control window whose audio you wish to stream in the Streaming Source pop-up
    5 Pick a bit rate. Higher bitrates mean higher quality, but require fast connections to listen to
    6 Enter the address, port, and password of the rebroadcasting server you're streaming to.
    7 Click on the Station Info tab and input the information for your station
    8 Click Start

    Audion will now begin re-encoding your audio and streaming it to the specified server. Audion will even contact the server and update it it with any track/title changes so the user knows what you're playing at all times.

    Tip: If you're a DJ, Audion can even stream your live set. Just plug your output into your Mac's input, and choose the appropriate input source in the Streaming Device popup!
