These should both work. To be strictly correct, you must use \r\n everywhere 
you have \n, but icecast isn't picky about that. You also must send some 
required HTTP/1.1 headers, or send in HTTP/1.0 instead. Again, icecast isn't 
picky. You should have a space between "User-Agent:" and the actual value. 
I'm not sure whether icecast is picky about that, but the behaviour would be 
server-wide, not format-specific.

You must have some other, unrelated, problem, presumably elsewhere in your 
code.
