Hey Orin. Before you start using nicecast, make sure that whatever program you're going to use to play music isn't running. That is, if you're using itunes, start nicecast before starting itunes. Right now, none of the rogueamoeba programs can hijack audio from a program that is already running.

Hello,

You could get software for the Mac to do this called NiceCast. Although I still need help using it.

The thing is, when I try it, it doesn't work apparently from what friends say when trying to tune in. When trying to tune into a friends broadcast myself, (He selected the source and everything which was iTunes), still didn't work. What happened there was that you can see the title of the song that was supposed to be playing, like the song was being displayed, but no audio was being heard. Until, of course, the demo expired (His demo), and I heard static. So there must be a way to make ITunes audio work.

It does state on the website that hijacking an application isn't fully supported in Leopard yet, perhaps this is part of why it isn't working. Maybe, the reason is so incredably stupid a caveman could figure it out. Not me yet, though. You know what I'll tell you, though? Unlike windows where you have to go and edit a text file and crap, none of that here. The server is built into the program. All thatis needed is trying to figure this program out.

Hey all, well, I haven't got a mac as of yet, reason being is I'm still asking questions, and finding information to prepare to get one. I like to do online broadcasting, and of course, using the PC now to do it. What is there in the way of software available for the mac to do this?
