Greetings;

I'm interested in sending voice quality data (bitrate=8) to HTML5 <audio> 
elements using Liquidsoap. Unfortunately, it doesn't look like any of the mp3 
varieties (fxp, vbr, abr) in Liquidsoap allow bitrate=8. I realize that speex  
uses bitrate=8, but MP3 is preferred because IE, Chrome, FF all support it in 
HTML5 (Windows 7).

MPEG2 III states that it supports this bitrate, but Liquidsoap must be MPEG1 
III? Is there any way I can get this to work?

In our previous C++ version of this App I used Speex library and have that 
audio source available in speex bytes. Am I correct in my assumption that the 
only way to retrieve this speex data would be to use 
add_decoder("speex-to-wav") and then 
output.icecast(%mp3,bitrate=8,...,wav-input), or is there an easier method 
(input.harbor)?

Oh, one more thing. In the C++ version, I split the data into speex headers and 
data and sent them separately. I always sent the headers and used FFT to 
calculate the Db level on the data portion, and only sent the 8K of data if it 
was not silence. I tried to do the same thing in Liquidsoap with skip_blank(). 
Am I on the right track?
