BTW: does speex belong to ogg vorbis family or it is completly different? Any clients to play speex format?
Hi, Speex does belong to the Xiph family of codecs. My understanding is that Icecast can stream Ogg Speex. I'm not aware of any streamers that can stream it to Icecast though. I would think that at least Ogg123 (compiled with Speex support) and Illiminable's DirectShow filters would be able to play this, and perhaps some other apps as well. I'm particularly interested in knowing if there's anything can stream a Speex source to Icecast.

Getting it to stream is not a big problem, I have it under my branch currently> I'm particularly interested in knowing if there's anything can stream a > Speex source to Icecast.libshout trunk can send it, although I don't think it's timed just yet. karl.
