Thanks cj for your input, am glad you are not having the problems I am.
I am streaming directly to a server hosted in germany, that was yesterdays 'station' anyway, I do not host a server on my own pc.
I know a lot about streaming using shoutcast servers and windows media servers, having setup 2 stations in the past.
I only wish to stream from my PC to a shoutcast server elsewhere at a rate of 192kbps, which should not be a problem on even a 10MB cable (with 512kbps up) let alone a 20MB with 768kbps up. In fact a 4MB cable with 400kbps up should be plenty............
I am disgusted for want of a stronger phrase, at VM, as it seems like as soon as I start streaming, they can somehow 'detect' this and then slow me down to nothing meaning I cant even stream a 24knps mono audio stream out, it really is pathetic, I mean what am I paying these ppl for ???
