Changelog and Download links for old SAM versions:


You can always find the latest changes in the official SAM Broadcaster changelog.
The Download Links all follow the same format and you don't have to be logged in to Download the software:
(!empty($user->lang['CODE'])) ? $user->lang['CODE'] : ucwords(strtolower(str_replace('_', ' ', 'CODE'))):
http://download.spacial.com/download/sambc-aa-xxxxy.exe


aa can be one of up or fb - if you want to perform a fresh install of SAM with firebird, you need the fb version. For updates or fresh install with MySQL both versions will work, but the up version is a little smaller.
xxxx is the year of that version
y is the minor version release (no leading zeroes, but versions bigger than nine have two digits)

To perform a fresh install of SAM 2029.67 the download link would be:
http://download.spacial.com/download/sa ... 202967.exe (if it's not 2029 yet or Spacial didn't release 67 minor versions in 2029, this link will not work)

Does SAM support AAC files?

SAM can encode to AAC. (i.e. send AAC to a server)
As of version 2014.6, SAM can now decode AAC. (i.e. use AAC source files)
In previous versions (2014.5 and earlier), SAM can not decode AAC. (i.e. use AAC source files)

How Do I Repair the MySQL Database?

The quick method:

    1) Log out of SAM.

    2) Open a command prompt.
    In Windows Vista and newer you get there by opening the start menu and typing cmd into the search box there.
    In the results list right click on the command prompt icon and select "run as administrator".

    3) in the Command Prompt enter these commands:
    Code:
    net stop mysql
    c:/mysql/bin/myisamchk -r -f c:/mysql/data/samdb/*.myi
    net start mysql

    Please note that the paths are just an example.
    In newer versions of MySQL and Windows these paths are likely to be different.
    An example with the typical installation of a 32 bit MySQL 5.5 on Windows 7 (For 64 bit version just use "program files" without the x86):
    Code:
    net stop mysql
    "c:/program files (x86)/mysql/mysql server 5.5/bin/myisamchk" -r -f "c:/programdata/mysql/mysql server 5.5/data/samdb/*.myi"
    net start mysql

    Pay attention to the quotation marks whenever there is a space in the path.

    4) Restart SAM

    If your mysql is not installed on c: then adjust accordingly.
    If your database is not called samdb, adjust that in the second part of the command.

-----

OR, install the MySQL Administrator: http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/gui-tools/5.0.html
Please note, that the MySQL Administrator Tool is obsolete and no longer supported by MySQL.

And follow these instructions:

To get your username & password:

Using something like notepad, open this file: C:\Program Files\SpacialAudio\SAMBC\SAMBC.core.xml
(If your SAM isn't installed at C:\Program Files\SpacialAudio\SAMBC then adjust as needed.)

Username & password is located at the beginning of that file. This was set up during the install of SAM, and it is what SAM uses to connect to the database.

SHUT DOWN SAM.

Once you start MySQL Admin and log in, do the following:

* Click on CATALOGS on the left side.
* In the lower-left section click on 'samdb'
* Now click on the MAINTENANCE button at the bottom.
* Choose REPAIR TABLES > NEXT
* Choose EXTENDED as the repair method
* Click REPAIR TABLES
* When done click CLOSE

Now let's OPTIMIZE....
* Now click on the MAINTENANCE button at the bottom.
* Choose OPTIMIZE TABLES > NEXT
* Click OPTIMIZE TABLES
* When done click CLOSE

Now close the MySQL Administrator, and then RESTART SAM.

What tcp ports need to be opened/forwarded/exposed for SAM to work with HTML/PHP/Requests?

SAM is a streaming audio manager, not a network configuration tool, so setting up the HTML or PHP websites with requests can be tricky.
One size does not fit all.

The following are the 5 most common setup scenarios and the port traffic required. Enjoy.

1. Host everything on one machine
Incoming port 80

2. Host everything on a lan
Incoming port 80

3. Host SAM and the database at ABC and the webserver at XYZ separated by the Internet
Incoming port 80 at XYZ
Outgoing port 3306 at XYZ to get to the database
Outgoing port 1221 at XYZ to make requests if requests handled privately; not needed for proxied requests
Incoming port 3306 at ABC
Incoming port 1221 at ABC

4. Host SAM at ABC and the database and webserver at XYZ (not recommended but here are the bullets for the gun)
Incoming port 80 at XYZ
Outgoing port 1221 at XYZ to make requests if requests handled privately; not needed for proxied requests
Incoming port 1221 at ABC
Incoming port 3306 at XYZ

5. Host SAM and the master database at ABC and a slave database and webserver at XYZ
Incoming port 80 at XYZ
Incoming port 3306 at XYZ for replication
Outgoing port 1221 at XYZ to make requests if requests handled privately; not needed for proxied requests
Outgoing port 3306 at ABC for replication
Incoming port 1221 at ABC

If requests are not needed then cross off anything with port 1221.
If a dynamic website is not needed then cross off anything with 80 as well as 3306 if and only if SAM and the database are not separated by the Internet.

For what it's worth: I do #1 via a co-location service with a non-standard Windows Remote Desktop port to compliment headless access; my hardware, their rack, no headache.

samHTMweb AND samPHPweb tutorials!

For setting up your own webpages that come complete with options to allow listeners to request songs and see pertinent NOW PLAYING and SONG INFO viw your website, you have two options. samHTMweb or samPHPweb, depending on which you prefer to use, HTML or PHP pages. Here are tutorials:

samHTMweb: http://www.lahotcountry.com/sam_help/sam001.htm

sanPHPweb: http://www.scottgiles.com/sam/saminstructions/

NOTE: the use of these will require you to have some basic networking skills to access a webhost via FTP, and will require you to have certain ports open inbound/outbound from both your SAM machine, and your webhost as well.

Looking to grab metadata from an external SHOUTcast stream and send it via SAM?

There's a PAL for that....

-v4.0.2 [BETA] (27 May 2006)
* Removed BETA auto-expire. If you own a valid key the application will no longer expire.
* Due to the inferior quality of the mp3PRO encoder producing plain MP3, this option has been disabled. Use the MP3 (Normal) plugin instead. Current users will be able to keep their old configuration, but will not be able to make any changes. We highly recommend reconfigurating using the MP3 (Normal) encoder. Use the mp3PRO encoder ONLY for producing mp3PRO streams.
* Updated text and links to properly reflect the new SpacialNet website.
* Slightly improved Station details configuration screen.
* Slightly improved MPM statistic relay configuration screen.

/NOSPLASH (Do not load splash screen on SAM startup.)
/SERVICE (SAM is running as a service. Do not quit when logging out.)
/NOLOG (Do not log notices, warnings and errors to the event log file.)
/SHUTDOWN (Closes running instance of SAM.)
Example usage: SAMBC.exe /NOSPLASH /SERVICE

-v4.0.1 [BETA] (14 April 2006)
* Added aacPlusv2 encoder
* Updated samPHPweb with the latest version containing some security improvements.
