From: "Craig Cook" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Converting MP3's on the fly and streaming them I am looking to take existing media files on our server (mp2's, mp3's, = etc) and convert them on request to real audio files and then stream = them to the user requesting them. Can anyone tell me: 1) How long does the conversion take before it can begin streaming a 1 = MB mp3 at a below broadcast quality sampling rate? 2) What kind of load does this place on the server? 3) Is there an object model exposed by RealServer or RealProducer that = can be controlled from Visual Basic?
