The maintenance is now complete and the radio is back online. I've also increased the bitrate from 128 kbps to 320 kbps since the load on the radio isn't that high (and those who do listen ought to be given the highest possible experience).
The radio has been brought offline due to maintenance of the songlist. It should be back on the air within a few days. I apologize for this inconvinience.

The radio station has been off the air for an unknown amount of time (but I suspect it's only a day or two) due to Windows Update. The machine was set up to automatically download and install new updates, and that also means the computer reboots after any new installation. I had fixed that problem, though, with a Winamp plugin which auto-play upon startup. Unfortunately, the SHOUTcast plugin does not connect automatically to SHOUTcast server. I believe this to be a bug, since the option to do just that is selected.
Until further notice, I have disabled automatic updates and apologize for not addressing this earlier.

It is now possible to see the total wish count in the statistics for wished songs. Furthermore, the number of people who have wished are also displayed (distinguished by IP number).
Before, the statistics were simply ordered by the number of times each song has been wished (in descending order). There were, however, no sorting by title, making the list cumbersome to read.
So now, the list is sorted first by wish count (still in descending order) and then by title (in ascending order). This should make the list easier to read.

After receiving feedback from one or our dear listeners, I've lowered the transfer bitrate from 160 to 128 kbps. This will reduce buffering which some listeners on slower connections might experience. Besides, the quality loss shouldn't be too great, and it's still better to eliminate buffering altogether.
When trying to lower the bitrate, however, ODDcast decided that it would be a good idea to use VBR instead of constant transfer rate. I couldn't change this and so had to change to ShoutCAST DSP, the plugin I used before until there was a minor issue with non-English characters (ODDcast didn't fix that problem, anyway).
I hope this will allow more listeners to tune in to this station.
Cheers.
I've found more songs and have added these to the station's repertoire. I especially enjoy Sunlounger's style. Go ahead and listen!

Christmas and New Year has long passed, and it's been a while since the last update. But, the radio station is not dead if you thought thatthere's just been no reason to write here since I haven't found any new songs to put on the songlist.
Anyhoo, a few days ago, I found some new beats. Remember that you can make wishes to have the songs played if you want to hear a particular song (seems not too many people are using it...).

This brings us up to a total of 816 songs. If you have anything you want added to the list, let me know and I'll consider it. ^^
Also, I should tell you that my Internet connection is quite crappy at the moment. And it's not because of the connection itself (which rocks, by the way), but the hub that connects the server to the rest of my network. Last week or so, my Netgear 100 MBit switch died after 7 years of hard labor, and now I have to connect both mine and the server to a 3COM 10 MBit hub (yes, H-U-B). This degrades my connection immensely, so there might be lots of buffering at times when I'm using DC I mean, downloading legally bought music. If there's lag, I apologize. I hope to upgrade the network to Gigabit once I move out in about a month and purchase a new router (and switch, for that matter).

Furthermore, I have added an extra field to the contact entry book. It is now possible to write your location when submitting an entry, but this field is optional so you don't have to set it if you don't want to.
I have written a small entry book and put it in the Contact section. Yes, it is a guestbook, but I don't want to call it that. In any case, you can now leave messages to me without having to send an email (much more convenient that way). "What to write," you say? Well, anything you likewhat you feel is good; what you feel is bad; songs you want added to the songlist; etc ...
Check it out.

I discovered a few days ago that the website was down. This has happened before (it seems the webserver decides to bail out every now and then and needs restarting) so I installed the latest version of XAMPP. But that wasn't as easy as that, since my websites failed to function afterwards.
It took three days to get it up and running again, and I hope now that this webserver won't behave like it used to before. We'll just have to wait and see.
I've rewritten the News section slightly to only display the most current news when entering the section. You can still display all news, though, by using the link at the bottom of this page. This is to keep the main News section clean and up to date.

I'm a bit disappointed on the utilization of the wish / queue system. Although it is being used, it's scarcely so. Perhaps not that many know it exists, so I'll try to make it more prominent.
Lastly, I'm going away to the country side for 5 days, so I'll be back next Wednesday. Just thought you should know.
When I tried to connect to the radio station on my home PC yesterday, I noticed that the service was unavailable. However, when I tried the website, it worked just fine. So I started searching for errors in the various possible areas and found nothing. The only thing that was out of the ordinary was that the firewall on the server reported an IP conflict. "Hmm, that's bizarre," was my thought. I gave up after the clock hit half past midnight and decided to continue the next morning.
At first, I thought that it was the firewall that was messing around. After disabling it, everything worked. So I thought that was enough evidence for it being so. But nothing I did with the firewall made it worked, at least not consistently (it worked on and off sporadically). With this I had to conclude that it wasn't the firewall and decided to investigate the mysterious IP conflict further. The MAC address I got belonged to none of the computers that was currently hooked up to the LAN. "Maybe the networked had been hacked?" popped up and made me turn off the WiFi (which really doesn't work anyway since it's a D-Link).
I was sure there were no other machines on, but I went to check that it really was so. And lo and behold, what do I discover? The old server was on! No wonder there was an IP conflict! That explains the sporadic access I got to the server. So now I've turned it off and even flicked the switch at the power supply. Who the hell turned it on anyway? I sure didn't...
At least now everything works and I apologize for having not discovered this sooner. I've got a new job and it has taken all my time and I'm usually too tired to do anything useful at the PC when I get home (listening to music included).

The radio was down today until 17:30 (Swedish time) due to a Windows update. The server automatically rebooted because of this and the ODDcast plugin to Winamp was not set to auto-connect to SHOUTcast.
The option has now been set and the radio should now be online after a reboot.

I have replaced the Winamp SHOUTcast DSP plugin for ODDcast in hope to fix the title problem. Some characters, such as ë, are incorrectly replaced with other characters when using SHOUTcast plugin. So I wanted to try to see if ODDcast did a better job at that. The conclusion is both yes and no. When displaying information on the homepage, the characters are correct. However, when the title is displayed in Winamp, such characters are removed. I don't know which is better, but I'm keeping ODDcast as plugin for the moment.
After much testing, I have now confirmed (or judged it so) that the previous bug concerning the double song request is finally fixed. I've also fixed a bug in the queue system that prevented song containing the ' character from being wished (due to the SQL syntax).
With that progress, I have decided to take the website out of the beta stage and into release candidate stage.
Also, the songlist has been updated by inclusion of a song (view legend):
- Moff - Human Traffic (A side)
At the bottom of the screen, the time it took for the server to generate the page is now written out. Maybe not that interesting, but I find it useful at times.
What remains now to be done is fine-tuning of the queue system. There are two bugs left, both of which causes the same song to be played right after each other or very closely. One is due the random selection of a song in order to keep the playlist alive (otherwise it would be silent until someone wished a song). It is possible that the same song is randomly selected prior to the wishing of the same song. This will cause the same song to be entered twice in the same playlist. However, since this deals on change, I reckon it will happen quite rarely.
The other bug I noticed recently after implementing the queue system. Upon wishing a song, there are occasions when the requested song is entered twice in the queue. If this is a bug that resides with BrowseAmp (the plugin that enables a Web-to-Winamp interface) or with the queue system, I currently do not know. So far, this bug hasn't shown itself very often and hopefully it will not become a nuisance.
I've been thinking about writing a guestbook in order to make it easier to make contact. There is a problem though with spamming, so I'll have to ponder on it a bit.
EDIT:
I've rewritten the code that handles the actual queueing of the song. Hopefully, the
double queueing will be eliminated using the new code. But I can't verify that yet as a
number or requests must be made before it can be confirmed that the bug is indeed gone.
So far, though, it hasn't shown itself.
After a discussion with a friend of mine, I decided to alter the queue system a bit. More precisely, the wish limitations. Now, you can wish one (1) song every 5 minutes. This allows a more dynamic playlist since one cannot place his or her own request after one another, but someone else can go in between with a different request. Furthermore, only three wishes an hour was a bit too little.
The time limit on a wish song is now set to thirty (30) minutes instead of an hour. And I also forgot to tell you that I added statistics over how many times each song has been wished (and sorted thereby).
To the songlist, the following changes have been made (view legend):
- Eddie Sender - Internal Desire
- Purple Mood - One Night in Tokyo (Above & Beyond Remix)
I am happy to announce that a queue system has been added to the radio, as I promised earlier (took less time than I expected it to). It enables listeners (meaning you) to pick songs from the songlist to be played. Normally, the radio just randomly selects a song to play, but if there are songs in the queue, these are played one by one until the queue is empty (after which the random selection is resumed).
At the moment, each listener has three (3) wishes. For the sake of keeping the radio from repeating the same songs within a short time span, an already wished song cannot be requested again until one (1) hour after its request (no matter who wished it). If you use up all your wishes, you will have three now ones one (1) hour after your first wish was made.
I hope this system works as planned, and that people will use itthat's what it's there for. There is still one bug, though, which can cause the same song to be played twice in a row (but no more than that). However it deals on chance so the risk of it happening should be very small. And if it does, the person who wished it will most likely be very happy about it. =)
You can wish a song by going to the Radio section, then at the bottom there's a link called View songlist / Wish a song.
I have now implemented an RSS feed or the news for those who use it. It is available at the bottom of this page until I've found a more suitable location for it.
I've also fixed some minor bugs in the XML parsing of the playlist and the news articles. Furthermore, I've written some handling of an error that arose when a connection to the SHOUTcast server couldn't be established. Before it was cast to the main error page, but now it's taken care of at the radio section (makes more sense that way).

The remaining sections are now completed, or have at least reached a state of where it would be in order to publish them. I don't think any section have gained a level of permanency, but will be revised as deemed necessary.
There are still work to be donethere is no display of all the songs on the playlist, no way to enqueue songs (I see it as more of a long-time project) and the error handler isn't powerful enough. However, the homepage is now sufficient enough to handle any visitor that might reach this website, as long as nothing unexpected occurs (that's where the error handler should come in but tracing exceptions isn't as easy in JSP as with PHP).
The station's details (gathered through SHOUTcast's own webserver XML document) is now available for viewing through the Radio section, as is the song history. I will make the current playlist available in due time, along with the option to enqueue a desired song. However, I might construct the other sections before doing that, due to the remaining Radio section's complexity in comparison with the others.
The website of Reboot Radio has seen its first light, albeit far from finished. As of yet only the over-all design and news section has been completed, but I hope the rest will flow along more smoothly after I've accustomed myself to the new script language (JSP).
The plan is to implement a full-fledged radio section which includes various status information as user, transfer and uptime data, but also the available songs that are continously streamed through server. There will be an info section, with some data concerning the background of the organisation and the equipment, amongst other things. Also, there will be a links and contact section, whose content will be quite straight-forward.
Lastly, I hope to implement a queue system for the radio, enabling listeners to select desired songs and put them in a queue. If there are any songs in the queue, the radio will select this according to its input order and play these until the queue is empty (upon which it will resume its random selection). There will of course be a limit to how many songs can be queued per user, but I have not reached a decision yet on how many and how often.
I don't know how long this will take, but it will come along in due time. In the mean time, tune in on the radio station at http://rebootradio.net:8000.
