ffserver, streaming audio problem

Wed Jul 20 02:05:40 GMT 2005

Hello,
I recently installed ffmpeg (/usr/ports/multimedia/ffmpeg/) to try  
and start a streaming audio server.
the installation went smoothly though i don't seem to be able to  
connect to ffserver.
It crashes when someone tries to connect.
Has anyone been able to run it with the NoVideo option?

I have been running darkice and icecast for a long time without any  
problems.
I just wanted to try and stream in .aac format which darkice does not  
support (yet).

thanks in advance...
Arno
