Icecast - Oct 2004 - re-encoding questions

A couple pf questions regarding reencoding... I've got ogg, mp3, and aac 
files to stream.

a) What are the restrictions in the current version of ices (0.4?), is 
it that channels and samplerate must be equal in all files?

b) will they be reencoded to ogg or to mp3, or is there a choice?

Thanks.

Nope, these can be different if reencoding.  Note that I can't remember if 
AAC support is in the 0.4 release or only SVN.

MP3.
