How can I hide my shoutcast stats ?


Recommended Posts

As it appear from the subject , I want to hide the stats from the shoutcast page as I don't want anyone to know how many listeners we are have and the title of the songs etc , so how could I do this ?

 

Thanks :)

You can remove the song title by not sending the song title updates. You can set the stream to private, but the listeners will be public, there is no way to hide it.

And any suggestion for removing the song title while playing AutoDJ from centova ?

Whatever that site is doing is actually breaking the law. What they did was "hack" into SHOUTcast's DNAS page and changed the information - a CLEAR violation of the SHOUTcast license.

 

Also, in Centova go to Configure Server -> Server Overrides -> Erase %/song from the first box.

 

Our Centova is custom so it might be slightly different.

Why does anyone want to hide their listener stats? Are they ashamed by poor numbers? Some of the best stations I have heard have low listener levels. It's about quality and keeping the regular listeners I would have thought whether it's 2, 20, 200 or 2000 but I suppose everyone is different.

Hello Marcus,

 

First of all thanks ...

in fact the things you wrote can be adjusted to any software ... or not ?

example : the streamer config of SAM has also artist=#artist#&title=# etc etc

sounds logical to Me ... so far :yes:

Also, in Centova go to Configure Server -> Server Overrides -> Erase %/song from the first box.

ps : I'm not a real technical guy, besides my media knowledge ... for that reason my reply to this topic

I totally agree with that. I had 11 listeners on my show last night but a fair number of them are regulars who contribute requests and funny comments on Twitter. They give the show it's soul and make it worth doing.

 

Feels good that even with low numbers I know they are enjoying what I am doing and stay until the end.

 

I think once you focus on just enjoying what your doing and appreciating every single listener, not only will your output improve but you'll find more and more listeners begin to tune in as the word spreads..

I think that every software has a way to stop the output of song titles, however, it is not possible to hide listener stats.

That site is 100% violating the SHOUTcast TOS because of what they are doing!

I was just looking at your page. It looks like you have this in plain text

 

 

"There are currently 2 listeners tuned into this station!

 

"

 

So it will always show 2 Listeners.

 

You can edit your pages HTML and change it to this

 

 

 

 

You can also hide the

and your information "Currently Playing" will move up.
