We've been asked that many times. The last time I checked the Ogg Vorbis site they were working on streaming video. But nothing to date. We do have a Helix server for encoding video into Real format. Not great, but some people like to watch the weather in a streaming video format. Those files are static. I don't manage them and so am not certain how they are handled by end-users. Hopefully, sometime soon Ogg will have the necessary video codecs in place. Until then we'll be doing audio only. KJ
