Hello All - I've added my second questionnaire to the music pages in an attempt to adjust the streaming audio to accomodate the 'average' listener. I have experimented with 'massaging' the WAV files prior to the creation of the MP3 and WMA files and it is possible to reduce the rate the files stream at without totally clobbering the sound quality. I don't really _want_ to do this for every music file but am willing if the need is there for the streaming to be useful.
Anyone willing to take the few minutes to stream at least one music file and then report the results will be helpful. I know what works for an 800mhz Pentium at 56kbps dialup. I need to know what works for everyone else. :-) Miscellaneous Music files in MP3 or WMA formats: http://www.undercoverdesign.com/dosghost/dos/samples.asp Christmas Music in MP3,WMA, and RA formats (your choice): http://www.undercoverdesign.com/dosghost/faf/snowsc.htm For those with W9x or above OS note the XMPlay software mentioned at the top of the questionnaire. At 250k it's quite amazing and does not 'install' itself into your OS. It _will_ become the default for MODs, MP3, and others if you tell it to but it can also be used from a floppy diskette. Remarkable when compared to the newest Real Audio install of 50 meg! Charles Angelich The Ghost in the Machine!
