And if ices also buffers a little to be able to handle connectivity-problems ...

> I was using windows media player (with the patch for playing ogg).jo, 50 seconds with windows media player sounds pretty likely to me. I had a similar experience playing a low bit rate mp3 stream since media player seems to have a huge buffer. try an other client like winamp, zinf or real one and you propably will recognize a lower delay.

If I remember correctly just a few mails ago somebody said it only plays static files. Which plugin (patch???) are you using?

I'm guessing that'll result in slower than realtime playback. That won't help with latency. This is a fairly low bitrate mode, approx 24kbps from my testing. So if WMP has a big buffer, it might well take awhile to fill it at this rate.
