LogiKast 1.0 beta 5 — a free Mac app that makes running an Icecast streaming server easy. Built for Radiologik users, and works with any Icecast-compatible encoder.

This is a beta. Please try it and report problems in Issues.

Download

LogiKast-1.0b5.dmg (below, under Assets). Open it and drag LogiKast to Applications. It is signed and notarized by Apple, so it opens without security warnings. Updating from beta 4: LogiKast offers the update itself (Server › Updates), or replace the app by hand.

Requires: macOS 13 Ventura or later, Apple silicon or Intel. Nothing else to install.

What's new since beta 4

  • A clearer window: the app name and the selected item are shown at the top, and the sidebar shows each mount's status and listeners at a glance, with the app version at the bottom (click it for About)
  • Start Server / Stop Server is now a labeled button
  • Delete a mount from the sidebar (the − button, right-click, or the Delete key), with a warning first
  • Server tabs reorganized: Setup (network, passwords, contact details) and Limits; "Open LogiKast when I log in" moved to App & Log
  • Mount tabs: Stream Info is now the second tab
  • Links to encoder apps show a hand cursor and underline when you point at them
  • The website player note on the Share tab now says the player works only on http:// pages

Known limitations in this beta

  • No HTTPS for listeners yet (plain HTTP only)
  • Tested on macOS 27, 26 Tahoe and 15 Sequoia; macOS 13 and 14 are untested
