Greetings everyone
 
Although I've been busy with audio production for quite some time now, I'm
new to this list, and relatively new to the world of internet broadcasting.
 
My question, as the subject line suggests, relates to broadcasting software,
specifically to SAM broadcaster, from Spacialnet.com
 
Up until now, I've been using Winamp together with either Shoutcast, or the
SAM encoder, to stream audio to the shoutcast server.
However, as I'm sure you know, this is a rather limited option, as you
cannot do things such as cross fade between songs, talk over music, etc.
etc. etc.
 
I played around with SAM Broadcaster on the computer of one of my sighted
friends, and first impression I got, is that this is a very robust piece of
software.
However, accessibility is seriously lagging here, or not?
I'm using Jaws 8 as screen reader, and I've wondered whether there are any
Jaws scripts available to work with SAM, for if I'm going to buy SAM, at
least I would like to use as many of it's features as possible.
 
If this is a no-go area, I've played around with ZARA Radio a bit, and like
the features that it has, as well as the fact that it is reasonably
accessible.
What I can not seem to figure out, is how to have this program work with
either the SAM Encoder, or the Shoutcast encoder for that matter.
Do you route the whole process through Winamp?
And if you do, what are the risk of Jaws leaking through to your broadcast,
as I'm using only one sound card?
 
I really hope someone on this list would be able to shed some light on these
issues for me.
 
Thanks for your time.
 
All the best
