c.Select "Nullsoft SHOUTcast Source DSP v1.9.1"
d.Click on Encoder 1 (this sets up the first of 5 encoders, we only need 1 encoder so we won't
worry about the others right now.
3. Under Encoder settings select: 64kbps, 22.050kHz, Stereo.. (this is what most ppl use, you can
encode any speed, but based on your bandwidth and the stream you have will determine your
settings. More on this in advanced setups later....
Now you want to select the "Input" tab at the top and make the appropriate changes listed and
shown below:

Good, moving on Now select the "Output" tab at the top and make the appropriate changes
listed and shown below:

2. Enter your IP address in "Address" only the numbers, not the http://
3. Enter your port number in Port
4. Enter your password for streaming

Ok now we get to test it!
1. Load up a song or folder etc. in Winamp and start playing it.
2. Come back to the "Shoucast Source" and push "connect" and watch the "status" window. You
should see it connecting then sending bytes.
Note: In the status window, if you have an error in setup and it doesnt connect, it will also show
you.
Thats it for the basic setup. We will be adding more threads dealing with intermediate usage and
some of its functions shortly in the future
