Tipps

  • Make sure your computer is in the same network as the Instreamer ICE device.

  • You can also install the "Barix Discovery Tool" (download) instead of listening to the announcement. This is especially useful if you have many devices.

  • Whenever you are not actively using the stream we recommend to play some nice music or just leave the setup connected so everything works and people can hear you when you join again at a certain time.

  • If you wish you can change the password: To do so, go to "Status", click on "Manage Passwords" and change the admin and user profiles.

  • You can always configure a standard Instreamer ICE (link) here.
