FLAC streaming is embeded as audio/ogg or application/ogg

In ogg streaming protocol metadatas are embeded in the audio packets.and ogg protocol has a known “bug” after each metadata change it sends EOF(end of file), and start a new ogg file, which causes some (most) clients to stop listening..

Affected clients are:

• firefox
• chrome (maj:Chromium Version 117.0.5938.149 can read without cut)
• mpd
• ..

MPV and VLC can play continuously but do not update the metadatas…

the only workaround available client-side at the moment is to use Icecast Metadata JS
