Check the SHOUTCast configuration:
  • Ensure that the SHOUTCast URL and channel key are correct.
  • Ensure that the SHOUTCast proxy server host and port configuration are correct.
  • Ensure that the streaming source is in either MP3 or WAV audio format and that all of the other requirements are met. See Adding a streaming music source for a complete list of requirements.
  • Ensure that the SHOUTCast URL is reachable from the media server by attempting to resolve the URL from the media server. To do this, you can use wget or cURL with the configured SHOUTCast URL.
The following is a successful wget example:
wget http://yp.shoutcast.com/sbin/tunein-station.pls?id=227567
