[Vorbis] icecast

I am loving this streaming capability, but now I have come upon a new problem:  A gif animation consisting of 13 frames (and related to the ogg file) does not animate when I begin to stream the ogg file. Of course I realize that animated gif's are not a subject of this forum, but I thought it might possibly draw a comment that helps me solve this.

  If you want to stream various static files on demand to your users, 
  icecast still isn't necessary. You can request transparent hand-off
  of the stream url to a player application by linking to a .m3u or
  shoutcast playlist file. This is just a text file that contains the
  actual file url. The browser will launch the player and give it the
  playlist file; the player can then stream the file directly from
  your webserver.
