Station Settings: Configuring Your Server & Profile

The Settings page is where you manage your station's basic info, your stream passwords, and your logs. Open it from Sidebar → Settings.

Settings has a few tabs across the top. Which ones you see depends on your access and on whether you're in Basic or Advanced mode (the Basic Mode / Advanced Mode toggle lives in the top-right menu):

  • Basic mode shows Profile, Change Password, and Logs, everything most stations need day to day.
  • Advanced mode adds Relaying and Mount Points for stations that need to fan their feed out to other servers or run multiple stream endpoints.

Click Save after editing a tab to apply your changes.

Profile

The Profile tab holds the public-facing details about your station. Fields you can set:

  • Stream Title: the name of your radio stream.
  • Genre: the genre listeners and directories see.
  • Description: a short blurb about your station.
  • Time Zone: set this to your region so schedules and timestamps line up.
  • Country: your station's country.
  • Website URL: a link to the website tied to your stream.

Some plans also let you ban your stream for selected countries if you need to restrict where it can be played.

Make your changes, then click Save.

Change Password

Use this tab to update the two passwords your station uses:

  • Source Password: connects your broadcasting software (your encoder) to the server.
  • Admin Password: grants administrative access to your stream.

Passwords must be at least 6 characters. Use the show/hide toggle to check what you've typed, then click Change Password to save. If you change the Source Password, update it in your encoder too so it can keep connecting.

Relaying (Advanced mode)

Relaying lets you broadcast your station's feed to another server, so a second host can carry your stream. Open Settings → Relaying in Advanced mode to add, edit, or remove relays.

When you add or edit a relay you can set:

  • Server Type: pick the type that matches the server you're relaying to (the same Server Type values you'll see on your Encoders page).
  • Display Name and Listening URL for the remote server.
  • The mount or stream ID and the remote admin password.
  • Show on Public Pages: whether the relay is listed publicly.
  • Broadcast AutoDJ to Remote: send your AutoDJ feed to the relay, with a chosen audio format (MP3, OGG Vorbis, OGG Opus, AAC+, or FLAC) and bitrate (32 to 320 kbps).

Click Save when you're done.

Mount Points (Advanced mode)

A mount point is an endpoint listeners connect to. Most stations run one, but you can add more, for example a second mount at a different bitrate. Open Settings → Mount Points in Advanced mode to add, edit, or remove them.

When you add or edit a mount point you can set:

  • Stream Path: the path listeners connect to.
  • Set as Default: make this the station's default mount.
  • Disconnect listeners after N seconds: drop listeners after a set idle time, if you want that.
  • Use AutoDJ: have the AutoDJ play out on this mount, with an audio format (MP3, OGG, Opus, AAC+, or FLAC) and bitrate (32 to 320 kbps).

Click Save to apply. Changes to mount points may require a quick server restart, which you can do from the Start / Stop / Restart Server controls at the top of the dashboard.

Logs

The Logs tab gives you access to your station's logs for monitoring and troubleshooting. You'll see a button for each available log:

  • Streaming Log: activity from the streaming engine that powers your station.
  • Access Log: listener connection activity.
  • Error Log: errors the server has recorded.

Click a log to view it, or use Download Logs to save a copy for offline review or to share with our support team. If something on your stream isn't behaving, the logs are usually the fastest way to spot why, and you can always send them to us through a support ticket and we'll take a look.
