LightCast

Broadcast and web infrastructure

Stream. Host. Reach everyone.

Radio, television, hosting and cloud servers for stations, organisations and businesses across Albania and the Balkans — built and maintained by a team that speaks your language.

Why LightCast

Not the cheapest quote on the market. The provider who understands your work and answers when you need them.

  • Managed infrastructure

    We keep the servers, the updates and the monitoring. You never open an SSH session unless you want to.

  • Support in Albanian and English

    Talk to someone who understands the problem — no translator, no endless ticket queue.

  • Solutions built to fit

    We shape the configuration around what you actually need, not around a pre-cut package.

  • Media and broadcast experience

    We know the path from the studio mixer to the listener — not just the server in the middle.

  • Radio, TV, organisations and business

    We work with stations and with companies — different needs, handled differently.

  • One provider, not three

    Streaming, hosting and the website in one place. When something breaks, there is no question who to call.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to get started?

For a streaming server or a hosting account, usually within 24 hours of agreeing the configuration. For a website or a custom project the timeline depends on the content and features — we set it together before we start.

Can I move my stream from my current provider?

Yes, and we handle the migration. We set the new server up alongside your existing one, test it, and switch over only once everything works. In practice that means no interruption for your listeners.

What is the difference between Icecast and Shoutcast?

Both are audio streaming protocols and in everyday use the difference is small. Shoutcast is older and better known to some studio software; Icecast is open and more flexible about formats. If you have no preference we will suggest whichever fits the equipment you already have.

Do you maintain the site after handover?

Yes, if you want us to. Maintenance covers security updates, backups and small content changes. If you have your own team and prefer to run it yourself, we hand over everything along with the access and documentation.

How does billing work?

Ongoing services are billed monthly or yearly, whichever you prefer. Custom projects are billed as agreed, usually in stages. There are no hidden fees and any addition is approved in advance.

Do you work outside Albania?

Yes. We work with clients across the region and with the Albanian diaspora. Communication happens in Albanian or English, and the infrastructure is placed wherever it makes most sense for your audience.
