Due to unforseen circumstances, some servers were unable to be migrated to the new platform several weeks ago. We are completing the work starting from today.

If your server hasn’t already been migrated the you will find that it will be in the next 2 weeks at some point.

When the migration is taking place, there will be up to 60 minutes of downtime (usually less).

— This announcement only applies to customers using mixstream.net —

We are going to start the process of migrating customers over to a new control panel over the next 2 weeks. This will include Stream Servers, AutoDJs and Transcoders.

There will be no downtime or outages on AutoDJ services and Transcoders as a result of the updates, they will continue to operate normally. We will be announcing further updates to AutoDJ in the next month.

We are performing major updates to the stream servers (Shoutcast/Icecast) there will be some downtime when these services are updated. We will be starting with Value Network servers as of tomorrow. Premium Network servers will follow next week. We are currently unable to provide exact time estimates for individual servers but if you need further updates then please open a support ticket.

We expect a short period of downtime for all Shoutcast/Icecast servers that are due to be updated. This will last from 20-60 minutes and we will perform maintenance during off-peak times.

In addition, we will be changing the IP of the following servers: usa8-vn usa9-vn
This is in order to improve the hardware and performance of the servers. The old IPs will be available for 1 month from the date of the server move. If you use the hostname to connect to your server then you will see no changes, the system will switch over smoothly to the new IP. If you connect using the IP address then you will need to change it (we will post further updates regarding this).

We have updated the way in which we process card payments via our website, this allows us to securely store your card details for automatic payment processing (that’s if you choose to do so, you can choose to disable auto renewal on the payment form).

If you would like to activate automatic recurring payments, simply tick the recurring payments box when you make your next payment. This will allow your details to be stored with our payment processor, Stripe.

For your peace of mind, all card details are still submitted and stored with the highest security standards by Stripe in the same was as before.

All customers that currently have card payments as their default payment method will be migrated to the new system so you will see a different form next time you pay with the recurring billing option added.

If you have any questions or experience problems with the new form then please contact us.

We have made a DNS update on mixstream.net which may cause a small number of people to be unable to access the website temporarily.

If you have already been on the website in the last few hours and have an old DNS cache then you may see an ‘Apache is working’ page.

You can try flushing your DNS cache:

Alternatively, the DNS will update itself in the coming hours.

Due to an issue with our billing agreements module, this option is temporarily disabled. We are in touch with the developer of the module to get this fixed, but for now you can use the PayPal one off payment option or card.
