A practical starting configuration for broadcasting from VirtualDJ to a digiSTREAM SHOUTcast server.

Recommended VirtualDJ SHOUTcast Settings

VirtualDJ's current manual documents broadcasting to an Internet radio server using SHOUTcast and MP3. Use the station-specific server and port information supplied by digiSTREAM.

Setting Recommended starting point
Broadcast destination Internet Radio Server
Protocol ShoutCast
Format MP3
Server URL Your digiSTREAM server address
Server Port Your assigned SHOUTcast port
Login Use the value required by your digiSTREAM configuration
Password Use your station's streaming/source password
Encoding quality Use the bitrate specified by your digiSTREAM plan; 128 kbps is a common starting point for MP3 radio.
Do not copy a sample port or server from an Internet tutorial. Your digiSTREAM account's server and port are the authoritative values.

VirtualDJ's documentation confirms that its Internet Radio Server mode supports SHOUTcast MP3 streaming.

After entering the settings, start a broadcast and verify both the source connection and audible stream.
