In the general section of the ezstream configuration file (before of
<encode> ... </encode>), setting <format> to THEORA makes an
error.

Format unknown.
As welll as I dont use encoding, I must specify the format outside of
encode... How should I do it?

if you are getting this error, then you have either mistyped THEORA in your 
ezstream config file or you are not using the latest (0.2) version of ezstream.

even if you aren't re-encoding, you still need to tell ezstream what 
content-type to use (via the <format> setting) when connecting to icecast.

The subtype of the stream is told as Vorbis in the icecast stats page.
I provide you the content of my simple ezstream config file.

Launching ezstream in the command line interface:

$ ezstream -c /etc/ezstream_1.xml
Connecting to http://taloha.rktmb.org:8000/telegasy.ogg...SUCCESS.
Streaming /home/mihamina/disk2/video/clips/antsa_an'i_kristy_haleloiah.ogg
Opening file
(/home/mihamina/disk2/video/clips/antsa_an'i_kristy_haleloiah.mpeg.ogg)
Input does not appear to be an Ogg Vorbis bitstream. No metadata
support.
Songinfo is (antsa_an'i_kristy_haleloiah.mpeg)

I guess ezstream expect a vorbis file. That may be my problem? No?
