Let's Encrypt HTTPS Wizard for RSAS
With the recent release of Chrome 80, Google has started blocking embedded HTTP audio streams in websites that are using HTTPS. The dreaded "mixed content warning" now means streams embedded in websites won't play at all. The solution is to use HTTPS for your audio stream.
As a result of these policy changes, we've had a numerous users switching from Icecast and SHOUTcast over to RSAS, for its excellent HTTPS support. For Linux users, we already have a guide for on setting up RSAS using free Let's Encrypt certificates, but we're committed to first-class support for Windows, and we wanted to make the HTTPS setup process easier for Windows users too.
With RSAS 0.1.14 for Windows, we've built-in a new HTTPS wizard, to automatically request Let's Encrypt TLS/SSL certificates and configure HTTPS for you. Setting up HTTPS for your audio stream is now easier than ever before.
