Live Broadcasting to AzuraCast without Auto-DJ

If your station broadcasts live full-time and doesn't need Auto-DJ, you can connect your encoder directly to the station's source.

Step 1: Set up a live encoder

Install a compatible encoder such as RocketBroadcaster, BUTT, or LadioCast.

Step 2: Make sure Auto-DJ is disabled

Go to Profile > View Profile and check the "AutoDJ Service" block — if it's running, stop it, since it uses the same source connection your encoder needs.

Step 3: Get your source connection details

On the same View Profile page, find the "Broadcasting Service" block for your Source username and password, and the "Service" block for your port and mountpoint.

Step 4: Configure your encoder

  • Server/Host: your AzuraCast server address.
  • Port & Mount Point: from Step 3.
  • Username: source
  • Password: your Source password from Step 3.
  • Software: Shoutcast or Icecast, matching your plan.

Step 5: Start broadcasting

Click start/broadcast in your encoder to go live.
