Greetings, I've just made a little tiny modification to the application, however be on the look out for a major update. The build is complete I'm starting testing tomorrow. I'm pleased to present AirBoneRadio. AirBoneRadio is a lightweight, complete self-hosted internet radio management system designed to replicate core features of larger platforms while maintaining minimal resource usage and sleek modular design intended for 24/7 AutoDJ streaming with Simple, beautiful Neon Orange and Lime Green web-based interface which allows you to Broadcast your music to the world with AutoDJ, playlists, and real-time streaming via the control panel Optimized for low-resource VPS.

No heavy frameworks - No built-in transcoding engine - No clustering

Can you explain the concept of AutoDJ in your system?

I'm asking, because in some popular radio automation systems like RadioDJ, an "AutoDJ" is a way to avoid having to create playlists manually. You create rotation rules about the way different music categories are to be used, and the system will rotate music according to these rules. A playlist on the other hand is a predefined order in which specific audio tracks have to be played.

So, in many systems, AutoDJ is "automatic on-the-fly playlist generation from predefined rotation rules" while in your system it is described as "automatic playback with playlist rotation", which sounds more like the automatic playout of user-defined playlists.

That's a great question and I appreciate your intrest in this project. AutoDJ in AirBoneRadio is the always-on Liquidsoap playout service. It automatically rotates and broadcasts configured playlists (with weighted/scheduled behavior) and fallback music, rather than generating track order purely from category-based rotation rules

I've just updated the correct admin credentials, feel free to try it before you install it, for you will be able to add new song, create playlists, set you Crossfade Duration, broadcasting format and bitrate. https://github.com/tchovi/AirBoneRadio
