I guess since MAC addresses are easy enough to spoof, there must be other things going on. Again I literally just installed a 2.5g NIC. And changing that new NIC’s MAC didn’t work. We’re all good now. Alex H emailed the new license key to me this morning.

I upgraded my station PC with a new 2.5gb NIC and BaO went into Trial Mode. I sent the new license report to both support and broadcaster@claessonedwards.com about 24 hours ago along with several follow-up emails and have yet to hear a response back. I even tried to spoof my old MAC on the new NIC and that didn’t work. Now, for almost a full day, I’ve been getting BaO liners over my songs and such. My listeners are getting annoyed and logging off. Can someone help?

I just figured this out! I downloaded the 64-bit version of fdkaac from rarewares.org. Extracted that to an accessible folder. In the Streaming Module, I selected Custom under Encoder.

I entered the following for a 64kb/s HE-AAC stream:
(path to file)\fdkaac.exe –profile 5 –afterburner 1 –bitrate 64000 –transport-format 2 –raw –raw-channels 2 –raw-rate 44100 –raw-format S16L –ignorelength -o – –

I opened another encoder and selected Custom and entered this for a 128kb/s AAC-LC stream:
(path to file)\fdkaac.exe –profile 2 –afterburner 1 –bitrate 128000 –transport-format 2 –raw –raw-channels 2 –raw-rate 44100 –raw-format S16L –ignorelength -o – –

This all works perfectly and is a much more modern and much better AAC codec from the ancient Winamp (CT) AAC Encoder included in many encoder packs. You have to be sure you enter 64 or 128 in the bitrate fields and select 44100 from the sample rate dropdown in the Custom encoder config screens.

Thanks. I was looking at the other website.

any updates??

I would also love an adjustable target LUFS output control. If I want a 12 LUFS output level, or 16 LUFS or 10, whatever, I think we should be able to control that.

Hey Milky, any hints of an update or release coming?

Wow! This is great! Thanks for sharing!
