# Help menu
The first entry on LibreTime's **Help** menu offers a **Getting Started** guide
for new users. Further down, there is also a link to the online version of this
**User Manual**.
![](img/Screenshot460-Help_page.png)
You can visit the LibreTime online support forum at
<https://discourse.libretime.org/c/get-help> to ask for help from the community
regarding your LibreTime setup.

In the Master Panel, beneath the **ON AIR** indicator, you will find the **LISTEN** button.
![](img/listen-button.png)
This button opens a pop-up **Live stream** window, which enables you to monitor the streams that have been configured previously in the **Streams** page on the **System** menu. In the **Live stream** window, a drop-down menu enables you to switch between the streams which are currently available. Both the streaming server and name of the stream are shown. Your station logo is shown in the top left corner of the window, if you have uploaded one via the **Preferences** page on the **System** menu.

Beneath the drop-down menu for stream selection is an orange volume control bar. This volume control only adjusts the output level of the pop-up **Live Stream** window, not the output level of the LibreTime server itself. To adjust output level between muted and maximum, click on the corresponding place in the orange bar, with maximum level on the right side. Click on the left side speaker icon to mute the output.

To display the URL of the stream you are monitoring, so that you can copy and paste it into an email or web page, click the **Share** button. Click the **X** icon to the right of the URL to return to the drop-down menu of available streams.
![](img/Screenshot479-Live_stream_share.png)
When you have finished monitoring the streams, you can close the pop-up window in the normal way, depending on the browser you are using. In Firefox, you can close the window by clicking the **X** button in the top right corner. This action will not shut down the output from the LibreTime server, only the stream monitoring on your desktop computer or laptop.

# Radio page
LibreTime includes a mini-site, which can be accessed at _localhost_ (for local installations) or
_libretime.example.com_ (for installations to a server on a domain).
![](img/radio-page.png)
The site includes your logo (set under Settings > General), the login button to the LibreTime interface, links for the schedule, station description, and podcast tabs, and a livestream player that runs of the stream from the built-in Icecast2 server.
The currently playing artist and track are displayed.
![](img/radio-schedule.png)
The schedule tab opens by default and shows a schedule for your station based on LibreTime's Calendar
for the next 7 days. All times are presented in 12 hour format.
![](img/radio-about.png)
The about tab includes your station name and a quick blurb about your station that can be set under Settings > General (more info [here](../general/index.md)).
![](img/radio-podcast.png)
Tracks published wind up here, and can be played back on-demand. This is a great place for putting episodes of shows that have already played out on stream. The Subscribe button allows for listeners to subscribe to your podcast's RSS feed in a podcast client of their choice, such as Apple Podcasts.

The background of the radio page can be changed; see instructions [here](interface-customization). Image comes from [CATS ON SYNTHESIZERS IN SPACE](https://www.catsonsynthesizersinspace.com/).
