Topic: Streaming question

What file formats can you stream as alarms on the Dash? I can't remember for the life of me what I used to use. I'm finding Shoutcast channels to be unreliable lately...

I think that is mostly the last of care by Shoutcast.

Re: Streaming question

Anyone know? I'd like to run my own streaming music service and get it on my Dash instead of relying on Shoutcast...

Re: Streaming question

Well....there is an official way of creating and adding music services to the Chumby, requires Flash development.

There are links to documentation and sample code at the bottom of this page:

Re: Streaming question

You can also create your own music stream and use the "My Streams" mechanism to stream it.
