If your CentovaCast hosting account is AutoDJ enabled, you must upload your audio files(.mp3 only) to start your broadcasting through AutoDJ.
Important: Some streaming providers do not include autoDJ capabilities because of resource consumption. But the incase is different if you have a Shoutcast/Icecast Hosting account with Ucartz Online. All of our CentovaCast Radio/Reseller Hosting accounts include AutoDJ.
If you want to perform a live broadcast, no worries, you can disable the AutoDJ and start your Live Radio Streaming.
