Title: Streaming Host Upgrade - IP Addres Change !!
Post by ProgMaster on 19th Nov, 2006 at 8:13pm
All,

Our streaming host has moved to a new data centre.

This will ensure even greater stability and reliability for our listeners. As a result of this change, our tune-in IP Address has changed. All of the tune-in links on the website have been updated accordingly, however, if you have Stellar Attraction bookmarked within your chosen Media Player, be sure to tune-in using one of the updated links on the website and re-bookmark us now !!

From our streaming host :-

"We will provide a new BGP bandwidth mix for your servers and it will be directly connected through multiple Tier1 optical fiber Backbone providers: Level3 - Tiscalinet - Deutsche Telekom - Global Crossing - Telia. Direct Peerings: AMSIX Peering - LonAP Peering - LINX Peering.

This will mean better performance and increased stability for all your listeners.
"

Feel free to visit the new Data Centre's website - in particular the interactive 'guided tour' to see where our ShoutCast servers now reside.

Enjoy.

Dee

.. just updated the S.A. link in amaroK on my PC and on my NOXON media adapters round the house.

Everything works perfectly and I can tune in to S.A. again  - hurraaay !     :)

By the way the new url for the 128 kbps stream is

http://87.117.201.178:7170/

for all who need this to set the new S.A. link in their media adaptors etc.

Nice tip Orion VII, however, be aware that although this is the most popular, it is still one of many tune-in links ...

The above link will lead you to a '.pls' file and is at 128 kbps. Users tuning-in with Windows Media Player, behind a firewall or with a low connection speed will have to select a different link from the front page of the website.

For further information regarding which tune-in link best suits you, check out this thread.

I use beep-media-player, and created a .m3u file:

> cat stellar.m3u
# Stellar Attraction - progressive rock internet radio
#   http://www.stellar-attraction.com/
#   128 kbps - High Speed Stream - http://87.117.201.178:7170/listen.pls
http://87.117.201.178:7170
#    32 kbps - Dial-Up Stream    - http://87.117.201.178:7200/listen.pls
http://87.117.201.178:7200


This means that if the fast link is not available, it automativcally switches to the slow link.
Just open the m3u from xmms or bmp
