The password for live broadcasting

In your broadcasting software (e.g. BUTT, RadioBOSS, SAM Broadcaster), the password you enter is the DJ's username and password joined with a colon:

username:password

Example: if the DJ's username is nikos and the password is Abc12345, the broadcasting password is nikos:Abc12345.

The settings in your broadcasting software

FieldWhat to enter
Server / AddressYour station's Hostname.
PortYour station's Port + 2. Example: if the Port is 8000, the DJ enters 8002.
PasswordThe DJ's username:password.

You can see the Hostname and Port on the service page, in the Streaming section.

Tips

  • Create a separate account for each DJ. That way, if someone stops working with you, you only delete their account.
  • Don't give DJs the Centova Cast password from Login credentials. It gives full access to your station.
