Shoutcast-dsp-plug-in
In order to broadcast to a running SHOUTcast server, you need the SHOUTcast Source DSP Plug-in for WinAmp. It’s a piece of software which adds SHOUTcast broadcast ability to the Winamp software. The DSP Plug-in acts as a bridge between your Winamp software and a SHOUTcast DNAS server.
EDcast
Edcast (previously known as oddcast – which has no affiliation or relation to the software “Oddcast” made by “Oddcast Inc.”) is a broadcasting application targeted to the small station owner. There are three different flavors of Edcast: a Winamp plugin, a Foobar plugin, and a standalone broadcaster.
