Update: If you plan on making the feed public for others to listen to, I would recommend setting up an
account over at RadioReference.com to be a live feed provider. They make it very simple by providing you an
installer that will set the feed up and start streaming it to their servers where visitors can then listen to it. This way,
you don't have to worry about router/firewall settings and port forwarding. If you only plan to use it personally, it is
still pretty simple but you have to get in to setting up your router/firewall to allow connections from the outside world
Hello! I hope this tutorial will get you on the road to running your own live scanner feed
on the Internet, be it railroad, fire/ems or law enforcement related. If you find this tutorial
useful, please drop me an email and let me know. I will also start a list of links to other
live feeds, so if you have a live feed and would like it listed, let me know!
These tutorials will help get you started, but don't forget to the see the documentation for the software, ShoutCast,
which also includes tutorials here: http://www.shoutcast.com/support/docs/
So let's get started!
Part 1: What you need to get started
