- Description: A short description of your stream.
- Website URL: The homepage of your radio station.
- Private Stream: Check this box to prevent your stream from being published to public stream directory websites.

2. **Audio Codec - Customize:**
- This allows you to choose specific encoder settings instead of using presets.
- Available settings include:
- Codec: The compression scheme used to encode your streaming audio.
- Bitrate: The amount of bandwidth that the audio will use (kilobits per second, or kbps). Higher means better quality audio but requires more bandwidth.
- Channels: The number of audio channels the streaming audio will use (Stereo or mono).
- Samplerate: The number of audio samples per second to be encoded. This is independent of your audio input settings. If your stream has a different samplerate than your input audio, your stream audio will be automatically resampled to this value before encoding.
