Reply to Broadcasting issues, listeners drop on transition.

Hi all,

I am trying to broadcast for some of my friends who are playing various games and have been requesting gaming music. I am using traktor s2 pro and icecast as win32 server on the dj machine (no separate dj server, yet)

For some reason, every time i do anything on the non-active deck, all of my listeners drop, and need to refresh the link completely.... UNLESS if they use foodbar as a player for listening. ( so basically, every time i start cueing a new song in or do a transition). Browsers do not reconnect automatically, neither does winamp. Only foobar works, and i dont know why.

This also happened on my previous setup through VDJ to icecast and liste2myradio and whatnot. I am going insane with this, as my friends are so lazy that they dont want to install any external softwares for listening and keep buggering me to fix this issue, but google has a lot of these questions, but no answers whatsoever.

I would be posting this on icecast community s, but it is most likely not icecast issue as i've had it with other encoders as well. (Or maybe they all have something in the default config i'm unaware of) I can also find several reports of this via google, but none of the questions/reports have any solutions in them :/

I am clueless what to do, I've followed several guides and there should be nothing wrong with my setup. Can anyone help a beginner?
