how do I broacast my music from my cable modem connection at home behind a router ? my ip is an interanl one and my friends cant access my music :(
It may be possible, but it's not meant for that. As the site says, DOT-POD is for you to shuttle your orignal music using your iPod to a friend's/client's location for them to access over the local network.
If you're trying to broadcast from home over the internet, there's better options than using the iPod as a web server (pity your poor 'Pod's hard drive).
I fairly simply got my router to allow web traffic in on port 80, to my internal web server. However, I had issues and never got file sharing to work. But I didn't try really hard.
Jeff here from DOT-POD.
I stumbled across the discussion and though I'd make a couple of comments.
Great to hear you are enjoying DOT-POD Faizon318 :-)
DOT-POD is most defiantly designed for you to share tracks outside your local network. That is the single purpose for the development of the software.
Faizon318, if you could send me an email to team@dotpod.net and let me know the brand of your router, I'll get the info you need to port forward to your local computer.
Finally, just to let you know ...
We actually have a whole line up of applications we are about to release:
DOT-POD - iPod Web Server - Serves the audio files on an iPod - Available Now
DOT-TUNES - iTunes Web Server - Serves the audio files from iTunes - Available Now
DOT-PHOTO - iPhoto Web Server - Serves the images from iPhoto Albums or any other images - Available with 24-48 hours :-)
DOT-MOVIES - iMovie Web Server - Serves the movies from iMovie or any other movies - Available approx 1 week
DOT-ADDRESSBOOK - AddressBook Web Server - Serves and allows authorised users to update the content of any OSX AddressBook - Available approx 2 weeks
DOT-CAL - iCal Web Server - Serves and allows authorised users to update the content of any iCal Calendar - Available approx 2 weeks
DOT-DOCUMENTS - Documents Web Server - Serve selected documents from your OSX Documents folder or files from anywhere else on your computer - Available approx 2 week
And then ... drum roll ... the Super App which will contain all modules in one big application.
One question some people may wonder is ... Why? There are already web servers on the market which could serve your images, audio, documents etc. Virtually all web servers on the market are designed by Technical people for Technical people and our series of DOT-APPLICATIONS removes the technical complexities (apart from Router issues :-)) often associated with web serving. Web pages are automatically generated, thumbnail images are built on-the-fly and the entire process can be performed with a very basic skill level.
Please email me at team@dotpod.net with any questions or comments.
With best regards,
Jeff
