How to Broadcast using Butt

Butt is a simple multi-operating system (compatible with Windows, MacOs, Linux) IceCast /ShoutCast compatible tool that takes an audio stream from your sound-card and relays it directly to the server.

When properly set up all you have to do is run Butt then just play the music in an audio player or speak into your microphone without needing any extra interaction with the streaming software.

This is butt's main window. Click on "Settings".

This is the window that will appear.

Firstly, you have to set up the server info. Click the "ADD" button under the "Server" section.

To find the required information navigate to Settings>Broadcast in your Revma station

The station server credentials will be used to fill the brackets here:

The first thing you should do is to select IceCast.
You can fill the "Name" section with a name of your choice.
In the "Address" section you will be required to fill the IP address which appears as “Server Address” in your station credentials.
Do the same for "Port", "Password" and "Mountpoint" .
Finally click on "ADD".
Now, select the server you just added.

Next, go to Audio settings.

In the "Channel" section select "stereo".
In the "Codec" section select "MP3".
We recommend you to choose a bitrate of 128k, as it is an industry standard quality.

Save the changes you have made.

Go back to the main window of BUTT.
