Music server with a shared player?
I don't have any experience with it, but it looks like AzuraCast does what you want.

Self-hosted music streaming service for radio stations.
I've used AzureCast - https://www.azuracast.com/ - super simple to stand up and run - you can run multiple radio stations with it.

Can Rivendell Radio Automation run a station fully automatically?
It’s also worth looking into RadioDj or Azuracast for solid, less complex alternatives. I might be switching back to RadioDj since it’s a tad bit easier to queue up songs.
-
Used Docker Compose, where are my files?
Okay yeah so this is all wrong. I'm using this as reference for an example docker compose file.
-
A way to have a .mp3 playlist playing on a loop I can access that’s hosted on my shared server web hosting account that uses cpanel? (I’m a newbie)
Take a look at AzuraCast. This seems very suited to your need

Audio website? File website?
Azuracast perhaps?

I want to start a radio station what is the best way to learn how?
Azuracast. Not quite as powerful but much easier to run. Also Linux, although you can tinker to get it running under Windows. It would run well in a cloud host like Linode or Digital Ocean, which might mean you don’t need a relay service like Alon depending on how many listeners you have. You can also host it at home of course.

Does playing through the API, for example, via Dsub, not expose the real IP?
I'm using the nginx config from the installation. I've also tried it via docker as well, but I get the same results there.

Ask HN: Flac/MP3 listeners: How do you store/play your music?
I'm not sure if this would fit all your needs aside from running on Linux but Ampache [1][2] has been around for a very long time and has the ability to mesh with other instances. It started as a small project run by some students at OSU and evolved over time.
