[PD] problems with pdp_theonice~

I'm attempting to use pdp_theonice~ to stream theora video to an icecast
server. I'm having trouble getting this working - it seems to connect ok as
long as there is audio and video being sent to pdp_theonice~ but I can't
view the stream with vlc or an embedded html5 player (which I've been able
to do when streaming video from other sources to this same icecast server).
oggcast~ works just fine.

Does anyone have a simple patch that they know works for streaming theora
video to icecast with pdp_theonice~?

I've checked out the giss examples, but these are way more complicated than
I need, and hard to debug. Also, they crash when I try to connect (probably
because no audio or video is making it to pdp_theonice~, as my tests have
shown that pd crashes when you try to connect without audio and video).

I am on Ubuntu 10.04 with Pd-extended 0.42.5.

Thanks!

p.s. alternately.. if there's another way of streaming theora without
pdp_theonice~ (using 3rd party software or otherwise) I'd be interested to
know this as well.
