I don't quite understand. You always talk about two instances. Do you really mean
two instances of ices2 called seperately? Do I have to make to config files, too?

In this case, what about the possibility of two <encode> sections in the config file?

This is what I currently have in my config file:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<ices>

        <background>0</background>
        <logpath>/data/audio/logging</logpath>
        <logfile>ices.log</logfile>
        <loglevel>3</loglevel>
        <consolelog>0</consolelog>
        <stream>
                <metadata>
                        <name>Example stream name</name>
                        <genre>Example genre</genre>
                        <description>Yarf - the otherkin radio (low bitrate)</description>
                </metadata>
                <input>
                        <module>playlist</module>
                        <param name="type">basic</param>
                        <param name="file">playlist.txt</param>
                        <param name="random">0</param>
                        <param name="once">0</param>
                </input>
                <instance>
                        <hostname>localhost</hostname>
                        <port>8000</port>
                        <password>#classified#</password>
                        <mount>/low.ogg</mount>

                        <reconnectdelay>1</reconnectdelay>
                        <reconnectattempts>-1</reconnectattempts> 

                        <maxqueuelength>80</maxqueuelength>

                        <encode>  
                                <samplerate>22050</samplerate>
                                <channels>1</channels>
                                <quality>-1</quality>
                        </encode>
                </instance>

                <instance>
                        <hostname>localhost</hostname>
                        <port>8000</port>
                        <password>#classified#</password>
                        <mount>/medium.ogg</mount>

                        <reconnectdelay>1</reconnectdelay>
                        <reconnectattempts>-1</reconnectattempts> 

                        <maxqueuelength>80</maxqueuelength>

                        <encode>  
                                <samplerate>44100</samplerate>
                                <channels>1</channels>
                                <quality>-1</quality>
                        </encode>
                </instance>

        </stream>
</ices>

And this is what I got in the logfile:

[2003-11-22  01:30:25] INFO ices-core/main ices started...
[2003-11-22  01:30:25] INFO stream/ices_instance_stream Connected to server: localhost:8000/low.ogg

Maybe I just have the config file wrong.
Could you tell me how to fix it?
(Is there anywhere a DTD for this xml?)
