[icecast] vorbis_encode_init() bitrate arguments - offtopic

Thanks for the tip. I added the calls, and it works now.

But when streaming, IMHO it is _very_ essential to be able to specify a 
maximum bitrate. I guess I can't use VBR mode then, can I?

Another offtopic question: what vorbis comments are 'supported' or 
'valid'? I see in the examples:

vorbis_comment_add_tag(&vc,"ENCODER","encoder_example.c");

but what other meta-info? Like artist, etc?
