THE INDUSTRY STANDARD

What CentovaCast Does and Why Stations Stay With It.

CentovaCast is the control panel for your radio stream. SHOUTcast or Icecast does the broadcasting; CentovaCast is where you upload music, schedule playlists, add presenters, see who is listening and get your stream address. If you have used it before, everything is where you expect.

BENEFITS

Why Choose SHOUTcast and Icecast Hosting.

What the panel does for your stream and your listeners, beyond playing music.

Both Streaming Engines

Run SHOUTcast v1 or v2, or Icecast v2, under the same panel. Every common encoder and player works with either.

Automatic Stream Recovery

CentovaCast monitors each stream and restarts it by itself if it fails, so a crash does not mean dead air until someone notices.

Royalty Reports

Download song performance reports for your music licensing returns, instead of compiling play logs by hand.

A Home Page for Your Station

Each stream gets a public start page with what is playing now, recent tracks, a web player and a song request form.

Widgets for Your Website

Copy widget code from the panel to show the current song, recent tracks and song requests on your own site.

Three Locations

Place SHOUTcast plans in France, Canada or the USA. France and Canada include DDoS protection; the USA does not.

CENTOVACAST PLANS

Plans by Bitrate and Listener Count.

Pick SHOUTcast or Icecast, then the bitrate and listener limit your station needs. Bandwidth is unmetered and AutoDJ space is unlimited on every plan. Pay monthly or yearly; yearly costs ten months' price.

Monthly or Yearly Billing

COMPATIBILITY

Broadcast From the Software You Already Use.

Your stream is standard SHOUTcast or Icecast, so the desktop, mobile and automation software you already use connects to it. Any encoder needs only three details: the server address, the port and the password.

BUTT
SAM Broadcaster
Winamp DSP

WHAT IS UNDER THE HOOD

The Parts You Will Actually Use.

The three parts of the panel you will open most often.

Your Music Library

Upload by FTP or through the panel, and the library sorts itself by artist and album. Build a schedule by dragging artists, albums and tracks into it, and listeners can hear chosen files on demand from your start page.

Listener Statistics That Are Actually Useful

This is where CentovaCast has always been strong. Concurrent listeners over time, session length, where listeners connected from, which tracks held an audience and which lost it. Useful when you talk to a sponsor.

Presenter Accounts and Live Shows

Create a separate login for each presenter with their own credentials and permissions. They connect for their slot, the automation steps aside, and it resumes when they disconnect. No shared passwords and no manual switching.

EASY SETUP

On Air in Three Steps.

Getting your station broadcast-ready takes just three straightforward steps.

01

Choose Bitrate and Listeners

Pick the bitrate for your audio stream and the listener capacity for your audience. Not sure? Our bandwidth calculator works it out from your bitrate and audience, or ask us.

02

Upload and Schedule

Load your library into AutoDJ, build playlists and set the schedule. Moving an existing station? Our engineers can do it as on-demand work, from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour.

03

Go Live

Point your broadcast software at the stream details, embed the player on your site, and submit the stream to directories.

NON STOP MUSIC

The Station Runs Without You.

AutoDJ lets a small station sound like a full time one. Your library plays to the schedule you set, with crossfades, station identification at intervals and shows at fixed times. When you go live, it steps aside; when you finish, it carries on.

USE CASES

Who Broadcasts on CentovaCast.

Local stations, churches, DJs, and businesses that want their own music playing in every room or branch.

Internet and Local Radio

Music, talk or local news around the clock. AutoDJ keeps the stream on air between live shows, and presenters connect from anywhere for their slot.

Churches and Ministries

Stream services and sermons live, then keep worship music and recorded messages playing through the week on a schedule.

DJs and Mix Shows

Go live from your usual DJ software at your set time, and let AutoDJ replay your mixes for listeners in other time zones.

Hotels, Restaurants and Cafés

Background music with a playlist for each part of the day, calm at breakfast and livelier at night, playing the same in every room or branch.

Retail Stores and Showrooms

Your own in-store radio: music that fits the brand, with announcements scheduled between tracks in every branch.

Wellbeing, Campus and Co-working

Calm playlists for clinics and spas, energetic ones for gyms, and a station for the shared spaces of a campus or co-working building.

Run a background music business for many venues? A CentovaCast dedicated server carries every client's stream under your own brand.

Support Around the Clock

Open a ticket at any hour. Once a ticket is open, you can follow up by live chat or WhatsApp with the ticket number.

99.9 Percent Uptime

GOT QUESTIONS?

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about the plans, support and billing.

Yes. Centova Technologies still maintains it: version 3.3.4 came out in September 2026, and the 3.3 series moved AutoDJ to Liquidsoap 2.

Yes. Ucartz branding appears nowhere your listeners can see. Your streams and control panel run on a white-label hostname, and your station name, logo, player and public pages are your own. You can also resell the stations you buy under your own name.

Monthly prices: SHOUTcast 64 $3, SHOUTcast 128 $6, SHOUTcast 256 $10, SHOUTcast 320 $12, SHOUTcast Unlimited $20, Icecast 64 $3, Icecast 128 $6, Icecast 256 $10, Icecast 320 $12, Icecast Unlimited $20. Paying yearly costs ten months' worth, about 17 percent less than twelve monthly payments. There is no setup fee.

It is the control panel used to manage a radio stream. The streaming itself is done by SHOUTcast or Icecast underneath. CentovaCast is where you upload music, build and schedule playlists, create presenter logins, view listener statistics and get the stream address.

Both work with the usual broadcast software. SHOUTcast plans let you choose the server version at checkout (SHOUTcast v2 or v1, or Icecast v2) and the location: France, Canada or the USA. Icecast plans run Icecast v2.

You upload your music library through the panel, group tracks into playlists and set a schedule. AutoDJ plays to that schedule continuously. When you connect live, it steps aside, and it resumes when you disconnect.

It depends on the plan: 160 listeners on the 64 kbps plans, 260 on 128 kbps, 400 on 256 kbps, 999 on 320 kbps, and no fixed listener limit on the Unlimited plans (conditions apply: they share a server, so a shared usage cap applies). Bandwidth is unmetered and AutoDJ space is unlimited on every plan.

Your radio account is created automatically once your payment is received, and the login details are emailed to you.

Yes, as on-demand work. Our engineers move your library, playlists and settings from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour.

Yes. Every station gets a free SSL (HTTPS) stream link. Browsers often refuse to play an insecure audio stream on a secure page, so this matters for your website player.

SHOUTcast plans can be placed in France or Canada, where DDoS protection is included, or in the USA, where it is not. The Icecast and Unlimited plans have no location choice at checkout; ask us before you order if DDoS protection matters to you.

Most music stations sit between 96 and 128 kbps, which sounds good on phones and laptops. Speech content works at lower rates. Higher bitrates sound better but use more bandwidth per listener and come with a lower listener limit per dollar.

If you broadcast or play in public music you do not own, yes, and it is your responsibility. Requirements depend on where you and your listeners are. Arrange it with the relevant collecting societies before you launch.

Yes. Your first purchase of a shared or reseller hosting service at Ucartz has a 30-day money-back guarantee. The conditions are in section 8 of our Terms and Conditions.

Yes. Free Basic Managed Support gives you complimentary, best-effort help with quick tasks of about 5 minutes, such as panel access, stream and port checks, encoder connection help and DNS pointing.

Yes. Book help for AutoDJ setup, migrations, relays or emergency recovery from $8 per 15 minutes or $28 per hour, with no monthly commitment.

Yes. We build scheduling, reporting and social-posting automations with n8n and AI tools, connected to your streaming panel.

What Every Station Asks First.

The questions broadcasters ask most, answered plainly before you pick a plan.

How much bandwidth do I need?

Bitrate times listeners. 100 listeners at 128 kbps need 12.8 Mbps, and each listener uses about 57.6 MB an hour. At 128 kbps, 1 GB of AutoDJ space holds about 260 four-minute songs.

Work it out for your station

Does my stream need HTTPS?

Yes, if your website uses HTTPS. Browsers block a plain http stream on a secure page, so the player stays silent. Our radio panels serve streams over HTTPS.

How do I go live?

Connect free tools such as BUTT or Mixxx with the details in your panel. AutoDJ steps aside while you are live and takes over again when you leave.

Do I need a music licence?

Hosting gives you the server; music licences are the broadcaster's responsibility, for example PPL and PRS in the UK, SoundExchange in the US, or PPL India and IPRS in India. This is general information, not legal advice.

Is the panel kept up to date?

Yes. Our panels run their latest releases: every server is checked for updates daily and audited monthly, and Icecast and the other streaming parts update with the panel.

Can you move my station from another panel?

Yes, as paid Hire an Expert work, for example from Centova Cast to AzuraCast with your music, playlists and settings. It is not part of free managed support, so ask us for a quote first.

Station name, logo, player and public pages carry your branding.
