[Icecast-dev] Speex support?

[Robby Dermody]

According to:
http://www.speex.org/projects.html

in the Player Plugins and Code Examples section, there are some 
libraries that allow media player, XMMS, etc to play speex.
However I'm not sure if the format that they expect is the same format 
that icecast with Karl's modifications is currently producing.

Past that, the dev branch of speex (1.1.6 currently) has a working 
adaptive jitter buffer implementation (working AFAIK). Maybe that might 
be helpful with this to handle the timing and latency issues.
