One of the websites I recently built is for a radio station. While I'm aware we can't stream, it isn't a big deal because I use another place for the streaming and licensing of the station. I am having issues however with the stats scripts and the now playing. It's not been working, and when I posted on the forum where I get my streaming/licensing from I was asked if my host runs in PHP safe mode and/or if my host does not allow fsock. The script I tried basically just uses a login from my streaming site to check for the song that is now playing, and displays that song. The other will show the last 10 songs played etc. Is there something blocking these scripts, if so is there a way around it with a php.ini file? Thanks.

How exactly is your script trying to connect to retrieve this information? What port is it connecting to on the remote server? -
It connects on port 80. There appears to be another issue outside of this. It needs to connect to the LoudCity account, but is written to connect to the streaming server, which in my case is LoudCity. So the login information isn't working. Still trying to figure that one out.Comment

It should not have any problems connecting via HTTP port 80. I thought it might have been a different port which would be blocked and prevent this from working.Comment

They're using a streaming server now, a shoutcast streaming server. The account they had before was with Loud City and was using icecast but isn't made for streaming larger stations. Now they have shoutcast, but it uses ports 8178 and 8180 for high and low bands. Would these ports be blocked? If so is there any way to get this script to connect? They're just standard shoutcast scroller scripts that just check what's playing, and who is on air.Comment

Please submit a ticket regarding this. For each issue include the port and the URL of the script that uses it.Comment
