Shoutcast Problem.. Why Wont It Work
« on: July 04, 2003, 07:01:00 PM »
"localhost" is a loopback address.  It always connects to the machine you run it from.  This obviously works when you listen to your shoutcast server, FROM your shoutcast server, but it will not work from XBMP (XBMP will just try to connect to itself).

Make the link shoutcast://your_pc's_ip_address:1337/ and that should work.

Shoutcast Problem.. Why Wont It Work

Okay,

That would work, but you see, I use 2 Network Interface Cards.. One's connected to my modem, the other is connected to my Xbox, so they share the same IP.. Any suggestion?

Pleaseeee...
