[Web4lib] Encoding software for streaming

[Lowery, Clint]

Hello all-

Anyone have good advice for a streaming encoding program that would be
free?  

What I'm trying to do is set up a streaming presentation of a PSA (we
did get permission to do so) for our website.  I ripped the DVD using
ImToo Ripper Platinum, converting it to a WMV file in the process.  It's
still a bit large, at 73MB for a 8 minute vid, so I still need to work
on the file size.  

But what I'm looking to do is get it streaming at 225kb. I thought maybe
Audacity would help, but I'm working on learning that from scratch, so
any advice would be helpful.

TIA!
