[PLUG] Streaming audio with ices and icecast2...

Darn attachment stripping plug list...
I'm pasting the xml file contents into the body of this reply.
Unfortunately, the lines are breaking in funny places.

        <!--    Input module.

            This example uses the 'alsa' module. It takes input from the
            alsa audio device (e.g. line-in), and processes it for live
            encoding.  -->

        </input>

        <!--    Stream instance.
            You may have one or more instances here.  This allows you to
            send the same input data to one or more servers (or to
different
            mountpoints on the same server). Each of them can have
different
            parameters. This is primarily useful for a) relaying to
multiple
            independent servers, and b) encoding/reencoding to multiple
            bitrates.

            If one instance fails (for example, the associated server
goes
            down, etc), the others will continue to function correctly.
            This example defines a single instance doing live encoding
at
            low bitrate.  -->

        <instance>
            <!--    Server details.

                You define hostname and port for the server here, along
                with the source password and mountpoint.  -->

                and samplerate given in the parameters to the oss input
                module above or the remsaple/downmix section below.  -->
