Hi all! A week ago I posted that our web host had blocked access to the SHOUTcast and YouTube scripts. I’m happy to report that
Spilsby Internet Solutions has graciously offered to host the site and scripts. Effective immediately, we have moved everything there, so
SHOUTcast and YouTube are working again. Please bear with us while we work out the kinks! Thank you to all who offered to host the site.
As many of you have noticed, YouTube and SHOUTcast are down. This has happened because WiiMC’s web host has decided these scripts, which are hosted on wiimc.org, are not allowed and has blocked them. So we either need to find a new place to host these scripts, or find a new host for wiimc.org itself. I think the latter is the best option, and would help for future growth. If anyone can offer WiiMC some decent hosting please drop me a line.
