Icecast works well and confirms when I stream using other things to it.

</code></pre><p class="">I've changed nearly every parameter in it to see if I can get round
it, but all I am able to achieve is causing a crash sooner than the
segfault. I've also got no more logging than this - level 4 is max
anyway - so I can only assume the fault is in the encoder. libvorbis and
libogg are both installed. I don't know of any way to use an external
encoder or I'd be using that... can anyone help with what might be
causing this segfault?</p><p class="">Thanks!</p></div><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class=""><br class=""></div></div></body></html>
