What is a Radio & TV Channel?
An Ion Hosting Radio & TV Channel is your dedicated broadcasting space within our control panel—where you can create, manage, and deliver live or automated audio and video content to a global audience. Each channel functions as a standalone station (radio) or television stream (TV), complete with its own settings, playlists, DJs, and listener/viewer statistics.
Channel is a streaming endpoint of your radio server. Radio channel is a Shoutcast/Icecast instance that broadcasts your music according to your setup. Radio server can have several radio channels that stream simultaneously the same content. Channels can have different format (mp3/aac/flac/etc), different bitrate, listeners limit and other settings.
