hi All.

I have been trying to set up Mixxx to broadcast music and voice, on the latest version of Ubuntu. I am running my mic through a Focusrite Scarlett 2i4. I have been able to broadcast music through my Shoutcast server, but for some reason I can't broadcast my voice.The mic output is getting into Mixxx - the graphic gain monitor is moving upward. Go back to Mixxx, load a track in one of the decks and start playing it. In the Mixxx menu click on 'Options Enable Live Broadcasting'. If all went well Mixxx will show a message that it has successfully connected. If your connection fails, Mixxx will show a message that the connection fails with some extra information regarding the cause.


Firstly let me say I am a new user of Mixxx and love the program, except for one problem I have found.
I have set the microphone up as it's meant to be, but when I try to voice over a stream for some reason the Mic does not seem to activate even when i click n hold the talk button, the voice sound panel shows nothing.
I have the Lastest version 1.11.0 (build r3862)
I'm running Windows 7
I do know my mic does work as I can use it in other programs like team speak, Second Life.

hope some one can help me solve this problem.

Starting with version 1.9.0, Mixxx directly supports live broadcasting which allows you to connect to Shoutcast and Icecast servers. Using the preferences dialogue, you can simply supply Mixxx with all information needed to establish a server connection. To enable live broadcasting you can either use the options menu or the checkbox within the preference dialogue.

For an Icecast server, you'll need to provide the mount point (of the form “/mount”). You can enter the host as either a host name or an IP address. In the “login” field, the default is to enter “source” – without this, you will not connect successfully to the server. The password will be provided by your streaming server provider, unless you run your own radio server.

Do not enter a URL as the host! “http://example.com:8000” does not work. Use “example.com” in the host field and “8000” in the port field instead.

If you connect to an Shoutcast server the default login name is “admin”. It is not necessary to specify a mount point. The password will be provided by your streaming server provider.

Set Up Mixplay

An Icecast server can stream either mp3 or Ogg. However, although Ogg is more efficient and effective - you get a better sound than mp3 at a lower data rate - not all players can play Ogg streams, so as a result mp3 is probably a better choice unless you know your listeners can hear an Ogg stream successfully. You may need the LAME libraries to stream in mp3. See the next section for details.

By default, Mixxx broadcasts artist and title information to your listeners. You can disable this feature by selecting “enable custom metadata”. For technical reasons, broadcasting artist and title information is not supported for OGG streams.
