jeje, that's cool from you, we've found a happy user ))

i can explain that history of streaming in pidip :
we were looking for good, open-source solution,
for some time, only ffmpeg worked a little bit
then they decided to abandon the streaming support and
it got broken with every new release..
then, i tried some mpeg4ip alternative,
but it had the disavantage to be hard to configure and hardly pass 
through firewalls.
then, came ogg/theora and icecast2 and this worked quite at once
with stability and quality,
so i don't bother now to support other formats.

err, oops, the theora support is __not__ included in the OSX version,
cause OSX version lags behind ( it's still 0.12.13 ),
it would just take a recompile ( after installing libtheora with fink ), 
mmm...
i have a logistic problem here,
although some of my friends have an i-book,
they have the tendency to install linux on them..

but, any contribution would be welcome.

suerte,
sevy
