Re: Streaming delays (was Raid)

Thanks for these suggestions.  MP3 streaming is definitely more 
straightforward as there is timing info in the encoding.  However,
I'd really like to be able to do this with an uncompressed digital 
stream, so as to have highest possible quality at playback.  

I've seen a bit of stuff on IEEE 1394 which seems to have many of the 
required features for streaming.  At least, as opposed to TCP/IP, 
it's designed with that in mind.  Has anybody used/looked at
this?  
And is it a possibility for multiple roomed audio?

I also wonder what would happen if you set the buffering to zero or 
nearly zero at the client end to control the delays which occur 
there.  If the network was guaranteed fast enough (100Mb/sec) maybe
that would work?

Thanks

Ben
