The software I was using was Microsoft Media encoder 7.1 and 9 (beta).
The quality was excellent - just like watching TV on the client, though
I did find that the encoder program had to be restarted every 24hrs or
so. This might be because I was using Beta software
though.&nbs=
p; I had
planned to script the restart somehow to get around this.
For home I designed a web page with a frame containing the sky EPG
guide
and a small streaming preview window of what was on now. Pretty
neat<=

:-)
The next step was to integrate with remote control to change the
channel.
Hope this helps.
Cheers,
Nick
