if you have problems with building icecast-kh 
#icecast on irc.feenode.net is a good place to look for help.

to complete the list of possible ways to stream theora vlc
(http://videolan.org) should not be left out.

to stream from your v4l device in ogg theora/vorbis the syntax would be:
vlc v4l:/dev/video:input=3:norm=pal:size=384x288 --sout
'#transcode{vcodec=theora,vb=300,acodec=vorb,ab=96}:std{access=http,mux=ogg,url=server.example.org:8000}'

or replace "v4l:/dev/video:input=3:norm=pal:size=384x288" with a file
you want to transcode.
