The transcoding server is running a little slow at the moment, we’ve had no complaints of audio problems but you may find that the control panel is slow for transcoders.

I’ll work on this by setting up a new server for the transcoders and transferring a few over – this will cause a short outage of a few seconds which will just cause a skip in the audio for the moved transcoders.

I’m pleased to announce that all premium network Shoutcast servers have been added to the new control panel at http://streampanel.mixstream.net/

If you have Shoutcast servers on the premium network, then you can log in with the same details that you use for your billing account. You will now see all of your servers under a single control panel.

The overall aim of the new control panel is to bring all streaming services ‘under one roof’ so that there are not multiple panels to log in to for customers that are hosted on different value/premium servers.

There are some limitations:

  • If your billing username(email) is different to that of your normal control panel login, then the servers won’t be displayed. If this is the case then please open a support ticket to get your account updated.
  • The new panel will not yet work for resellers and the customers of resellers. A separate panel will be made for this.

If you find any problems with the new panel then please open a support ticket.

We are making some changes to the database used for storing Shoutcast  and AutoDJ server settings in order to start the changeover to our new control panel.

Date: 04/05/2010

Time: 4PM, for approx 15 minutes

The premium network control panel will be unavailable during this time. This will not affect any streams.

If the unavailability of the control panel is causing you any problems then please open a support ticket and any changes or restarts will be made.
