After you create a station or radio, you land on its dashboard. This article explains what you see and where to find things.
CloudRadio One dashboard
The station dashboard is your control center. It shows the current state of your station at a glance.
Status and listeners
The top of the dashboard shows your station’s uptime and whether it’s currently on air. If broadcasting, you’ll see real-time listener stats:
- Current listeners: How many people are tuned in right now.
- Peak listeners (24h): The highest concurrent listener count in the last 24 hours, with the time it occurred.
- Total Listener Hours (30 days): Cumulative listening time for the current month, with a percentage change compared to last month.
Signal chain
The main section of the dashboard shows your station’s signal chain: what’s playing and where it’s going.
Input priority shows the active audio source:
- The currently playing track with artist, title, and album art.
- A progress bar with position and duration.
- A skip button to advance to the next track.
- Which source is active: library rotation, live input, or scheduled playlist.
- Live input status (studio and guest DJ connections).
- Track count and storage usage.
Output targets (if you have custom outputs configured) shows each stream output with its connection status, listener count, and bitrate.
Recent tracks lists the last 5 played tracks with cover art.
Mini player
The sidebar includes a mini player that lets you listen to your own HLS stream directly. It shows the current track, album art, and a play button.
Shoutcast/Icecast radio dashboard
The hosted radio overview focuses on stream health and listener engagement.
Player card
The top of the page shows a player card with:
- Album art from the current track (or your default cover art from the Branding Kit).
- Current song title with a live/offline badge.
- Play/pause button and volume control to listen to your own stream.
Stats cards
Below the player, you’ll see:
- Current listeners: Real-time count.
- Peak (24h): Highest concurrent count with the time it happened.
- TLH (30 days): Total Listener Hours with month-over-month comparison.
Quick connect
A connection details card summarizes your server type, number of mount points, current bitrate, and broadcasting status. It links to the full Streams page where you can see all connection credentials.
Recent tracks
The last 5 tracks that played on your stream, with cover art and relative timestamps. The first entry is highlighted as “Now Playing.”
Connection help
If your radio isn’t broadcasting yet, a help banner appears with links to encoder setup guides.
