5. Shoutcast and Iceast Link Structure
- SHOUTCAST LINK
http://[domain]:[port] OR
http://[ip]:[port]
Ex: http://83.169.60.45:80
IMPORTANT: For the vast majority of the shoutcast streams, try appending "/;" to the stream so it looks like this:
http://[ip]:[port]/;
Ex: http://83.169.60.45:80/;
- ICECAST LINK
http://[domain]:[port]/mountpoint
Ex: http://87.230.59.20:80/iloveradio2.mp3
- RADIONOMY LINK
For radio hosted by radionomy.com, the link looks like this: http://streaming.radionomy.com/ABC-Piano
Due to the fact that the IP is unknown, the player can't access current playing song name and artist photo. It will play it and it will display the radio name.
NOTE: Radio Stream should be MP3 type, no support for AAC/AAC+ stream
From this section you can define radio streams in the playlist

The shortcode is:
[lbg_audio4_html5_shoutcast settings_id='1']
