Slimserver isn't designed to server as a radio station.  As such, you can only
connect to the server as a new player.  You might consider using softsqueeze if
your friends' internet connections are fast enough.  You can sync softsqueeze
so that all players share a common playlist, but they will still EACH have
their own copy of the stream.

[slim] Streaming playlists

2005-05-24 Thread jwgraves

Is there a way to have anyone who plays my stream (for example: using
Winamp) to stream whatever  playlist is currently streaming?  It seems
that it is always necessary to first connect into the web interface,
create a playlist and start playing it, then play the stream.mp3
through winamp.  I'd like to  be able to give out my address to friends
and have them be able to play the stream that I am listening to and not
have to create their own (plus it would be nice to be able to password
protect the web interface, but not the stream).
