RadioCaster: Incorrect mime type of ogg?

Hi,
I recently needed to stream something in OGG on both Icecast and Opus. I noticed that the default RadioCaster settings are causing a problem, at least in the foobar2000 player, in both Opus and Ogg. The Firefox web browser also refused to play the stream. Regarding OGG, I've identified the likely cause, but I don't know what's wrong with Opus. Other streams in Opus, such as this one, play normally.
In OGG, the cause is likely the wrong default mime type. Instead of "application/ogg," it's "audio/ogg."
Opus requires further investigation.
Thanks in advance for any informations.
Best Regards
Graco
 
What kind of problem? Does the stream play fine in other players?


audio/ogg is a valid and correct mime type for OGG streams.
The broadcast doesn't work in any player I've tested, neither foobar nor Firefox. The console shows a "not found" status. Maybe I have Icecast configured incorrectly, but I don't know how Ogg broadcasting technically differs from MP3 or AAC. RadioCaster normally shows a "connected" status, but when I tried changing the mountpoint to graco.ogg, the status showed "connecting." Maybe I'm doing something wrong with Ogg broadcasting.
I do everything as usual, for MP3 and AAC it works without any problem, only OGG and OPUS have some problem.
File integrity verifier shows unsupported format or corrupted file.
Interestingly, other opus streams I find online work fine, so maybe I'm doing something wrong.
