can pdp_icedthe~ be used for 8 streams (320x240, no sound) simultaneously? what computing power would be necessary, you guess? is icegast able to run 2 videos full-screen on 2 displays that are connected to PCI-graphic cards on a pentium ~1.5ghz? (vlc did on
windows while gem failed).Please note that PiDiP is legally muddy. At best, it's non-free
software, and at worst, it's illegal to distribute it.This is because it has two licences and no mention that the user can
pick either, so by default all licenses must apply at once, and because
those two licenses are conflicting. It's licensed under both the GPL and a modified SIBSD license. Normally, GPL and SIBSD are compatible, but the extra PiDiP-specific clause is conflicting with the GPL.The PiDiP-specific clause is also conflicting with the FSD (Free
Software Definition) and the OSD (Open-Source Definition): this is what is prompting Hans to remove PiDiP from the pd-extended installers.For more information you may read the pd-dev archives starting December 30th, 2005.
