Topic: Error -138 when trying to broadcast

This topic is old and might contain outdated or incorrect information.

Hi just installed the virtualDJ for live broadcasting to our radio station, was using rocket broadcaster but wanted an all in one program. I have added all the correct source details but getting "error number -138 occured" everytime i try to connect. I have changed all the details in different combinations but get the same message. Please help

What type of radio server is it? (Shoutcast or Icecast)
And what settings are you using?

Probably just wrong settings.
Make sure you broadcast with the specified format (ogg vs mp3) and the specified bitrate etc from the radio

Hi Rune

It is an icecast connection through to airtime pro which is where the radio station is, i have used the same settings as when connecting through rocket broadcaster (which works fine) but the virtual DJ show this -138 error

Still getting the error, also have tried now opening ports 8000 and 8001, nothing i do eradicates this error.

I have tried rocket broadcaster and BUTT and both connect fine to the server and can stream the broadcast. The error only exists within virtual DJ, no matter how i configure the connection details the same error occurs.

I am on a pro licence as I know that you have to have this active to stream to a broadcast.


PLEASE HELP !!!!!!!!

Maybe a screenshot of your broadcast settings?
While you try broadcast, so any error messages are shown as well
