Updated: 11 October 2026 · Applies to: Centova Cast v3

If Centova Cast shows the source status as Remote and will not let you stop the AutoDJ or skip songs, the AutoDJ was kicked from the server administration page instead of being stopped in Centova Cast. Centova Cast then treats it as an outside source it cannot control.

Fix

  1. Log in to your Centova Cast panel (usually https://your-server:2199).
  2. Stop and start the whole stream (not only the AutoDJ) from the stream's start/stop controls.
  3. Check that the source status shows the AutoDJ again.

If it stays on Remote, open a support ticket so we can restart the AutoDJ process for you.

Tip: Always stop or start the AutoDJ from Centova Cast, and use kick only for live DJs.
