what do you expect? how many ACTIVE members are here around?

[Sheep]

We have about 25 members with more that 15 posts and lot's of read-only members. Before I make investments, I want to check if there is a need for something like this. Will close the poll after 20 votes, so tell your friends to vote
Have some other ideas as well, but that will follow later. (And no, still no answer for Marc about caps )

i dont have friends, but i can open some fake accounts if that helps...
However, maybe its an Idea to ask in other Communities, i mean is it worth to make a "show" for 8 people? On the other hand, the people that are here should be the one that are interessted in pcp stuff... .or are there more out , that does just never heard of this side? I cant imagine that there are too much , this side is linked at important sides, so... Maybe you should also ask, if its a show to win "new" members. If the programm is announcent in other foren, maybe more people get introduced into planet core and discover that pcp was more then "döp döp döp dedeldöpdöp"
Oh, news about the caps?

There are 2 options for streamin audio.

1. Online player with tracklist, so you can choose what kind of mix you want to here. Something like myspace. Of course live streaming is not possible here
2. Shoutcast streaming. The idea is to have a 24/7 on-demand stream. So a server is playing a tracklist with music (mixes etc.) With one push on the button you can change this to a livestream so you can host a show.

i think a big library of sets would be better for me, i rarely have time to sit and listen to music whilst on the net

With one push on the button you can change this to a livestream so you can host a show.

I also looked into this option myself, I mean starting a own server with Shoutcast, which then randomly plays my MP3 files online.
I had some website which gave me some directions, but I could not figure out how it worked.

I have a server at my house which is almost on 24/7. I could store my MP3 collection on there and run the Shoutcast server.

Anybody knows more about installing and broadcasting a Shoutcast server?
If more people would do this then you would have more options of listening.
Examples:
My server would play MP3 files, non-mixed
Nekro would play mixes
etc
etc

Then people would have more variety in there "stations"

share the dreams and I will make them come true

[Sander]

some usefull words

I think that would be to much effort from you for a small result. You also need a nice upload speed too. With a streaming package from a streaming host you can have dozens of listeners with no problems. (If sheep is doing a live show it would be very busy I think) And most important, nobody have to look after it.

[Sciopodius]

it's a great idea i think, if you're at least make it 128kbps mp3 streaming audio.. 
but yeah that would be a cool extra feature!!

 

[escii]

well, i´d say ill listen to it sometimes, not regularly it always depends .
