Live broadcast

RadioBOSS Cloud automatically transitions between Live and AutoDJ broadcasts. You can broadcast in any format, and RadioBOSS Cloud will convert it to your station format automatically. For optimal quality, we recommend broadcasting at 192 kbps for MP3 and 128 kbps for AAC, ensuring that your audience receives the best listening experience.

To perform a live broadcast, you’ll need streaming software that supports the Icecast server.

If you are using RadioBOSS, you can configure streaming to RadioBOSS Cloud using the Configuration Wizard:

1. Open RadioBOSS on your computer.
2. In the top menus, click Settings → Options.
3. Navigate to the Broadcast section.
4. Add a new encoder (using the “+” button) and click the Configuration Wizard button.
5. Select RadioBOSS Cloud and click Next.
6. Enter your RadioBOSS Cloud username and password, then click Finish.

The encoder is now configured and ready to use!

If you’re using other software please see Live streaming: manual encoder configuration.
