Last week we successfully deployed an update to the SHOUTcast YP2 platform that addressed the bugs that caused some stations to not appear in the SHOUTcast directory.
Most stations that were experiencing this issue should now be listed in the directory -- the update should have automatically fixed the issues.
However, if your station is still not listed please try the following:
- Stop your SHOUTcast SC_SERV servers. Wait about 7 to 10 minutes to allow the SHOUTcast YP to completely purge any lingering data for your station in the database, and restart your server.
- If previously you had set your main relay to public and wish to change to back to private for your load balancing needs, you may do so. Please note you may have to restart your server for this setting to take affect.
- Make sure you have entered a correct genre for your station. A list of genres is posted here.
If you are still seeing issues with your stations, please see the SHOUTcast Technical Support Forums for tips and advice from other broadcasters or leave a comment here in this blog post.

1. Hello,
I have downloaded updates and now I have no idea how to upgrade my three radio stations. Where I can find a tutorial?
Thanks

3. We are a non commercial operation and longtime Shoutcast Broadcasters. Until now we have had nothing but trouble free performance from Shoutcast.
Up until your new site revisions, our station was ranked in the 700s on your stat page. As of today we have dropped to 2000 because the new YP Directory only lists us sporadically (the majority of the time no listing). We are receiving numerous complaints from listeners who found us through your site and use your YP directory exclusively to gain access to our stream.
Our Genre includes a valid Genre category. Even though we use DNAS 1.9.8 we have nonetheless registered on your new site. We have made our public setting "Always", recycled our servers the required 10 minutes, removed double quotes from our stream name and have made great efforts to make sure we comply with all your requirements. We also note that or Log indicates we are being touched by Yp.shoutcast.com every 10 minutes or so.
I have written several emails that have gone unanswered seeking help. If there is something we can correct we will do it immediately.... simply need to know what it is.
Is there something we have missed or something we can do to regain our listing?
