SHOUTCAST streaming server Monitoring

sumsum · Post by **sumsum** » Fri Oct 22, 2004 10:41 am

hello

I am working on a bunch of php scripts which reads the XML data from a shoutcast server (streaming server for webradio stations).

features will be :

- Monitoring a single server
- Monitoring a bunch of servers (server farm)

monitoring will contains :
- current listeners
- stream hits
- webhits
- bandwith usage
- peak listeners
- max listeners

at least everything the shoutcast server will provide.

Is there need for that or may I alone with that ?

what DO YOU think ?

following a preview of two graphs I made for my own webradio station.

What do I think? -
I think you plugged your radio station via cacti - but that's cool - I'm getting
65Kbps of groovy lounge tunes here in Stanford,CA all the way from Switerland - not bad...

Is this an example of that "stealth marketing" I keep hearing about

here is a first version of the shoutcast server monitoring I explained above.

Version 1.0 (2004.10.25)
-----------------------------
- graphical representation of current listeners for a single server
- Installation support in english (sorry my english isn't that good)

In preparation :
------------------
## Monitoring a single server ##

- stream hits
- webhits
- bandwith usage
- peak listeners
- max listeners

everything on different graphs

It's my first script for cacti. please have patience with me. I try to improve it , if there is something missing. I tested it on my site and its working.

cheers
tom

Hi sumsum,

I'm running a server with 2 streams (a 64 and 128, and will probably add more) and would like to get stats for both. I haven't seen any functionality in your scripts for doing that easily.

Easiest way to do this right now looks like I'd need to have 2 sets of scripts (different names) if I wish to monitor both streams.

Any ideas for doing this? Looks like you were doing something like that in your first example graph, but I am not sure how you did that.

Cheers!

-Brian
