Predefined Public Playlists

[BrokenCircuit]

How is this being done? Its BRILLIANT! I'm listening to the Dallas Dispatch playlist, The features are very nice but what gets me is the responsiveness of the meta data stream, How? I have broadcast feeds over the years on Icecast, shoutcast Azuracast and have never been able to master the meta data stream, if it ever works its so delayed its useless.

Can a regular feed provider do this on a single streaming PC? Or is this a multi-radio/PC kinda thing? If all the multi-agency feeds could be done this way, and look and sound as good, I'd sign up to be a broadcaster.

What would be super cool would be a Texas DPS Playlist. I might actually subscribe, donate and request an API and the script code and paster that on a website ...

Playlists are a collection of frequencies and/or talkgroups part of the Broadcastify Calls system, mostly provided by Software Defined Radios (SDR). Calls are recorded by the end user's preferred software and uploaded to the system, which is why voice and meta are synced. Unlike traditional live feeds dead air is not included. You don't have to be a provider to create your own private playlists. To make a playlist public you'll need to submit a request with support@broadcastify.com. As of the time writing this, Broadcastify does not provide a way to embed playlists into webpages as they do with regular feeds.

As of the time writing this, playlists are not able to be embedded into webpages like regular feeds can be.

I have my public playlist embedded into several webpages in my local area. Not hard to do with the "iframe" parameter.

Here is an example:

Sentinel Alert - LAKE AREA SCANNER

That would be nice, but not all DPS channels are currently being streamed by sdr's to Broadcastify. I might just work on setting up a public DPS playlist with what is available.

Have the Texas DPS playlist set up, and have requested it be made Public, waiting on approval.

There will be duplicate transmissions, due to broadcasts on different systems, and no way to check for dupes.

Texas DPS public feed turned down due to the sporadic coverage and confusion it may cause listeners.

Maybe one day we will get enough coverage around the state to be able to have a DPS public feed.

Really encourage those running sdr's to setup Calls feeds for better coverage over their State, County, Local areas for everyone's benefit.

Thanks Y'all makes sense now. SDR's ... The way of the future! Nice webpage Enforcer! I think if we had better rural internet options in Texas we could produce better feeds. Where I live, my AT&T 13MBPS is the BEST I can get, even AT&T Internet Air 5G isn't available for personal use. There is StarLink but, I'm not contributing to mark of the beast technology ...

Thanks All for the replies!
