Is there enough speed in the transfer? To Colin and Mihai, I actually Tried doing Direct Streaming off the Web, and it's just Not Quite fast enough. But the concept is Right! I think if you have a Linux Box with a Cable modem and your commodore is null modemed there should be plenty of bandwidth. I only have a 33.6k modem, and it only transfers 3 or 4 kB per second. So I don't think it would work with a file any higher quality than 4khz, 8bit. The article is really more about Doing this off of a Drive. Maybe it is my extra push for why people should think about investing in an IDE64. It truly is amazing. But you SHOULD be able to do the same thing with the CMD HD, (just when you create the .wav file, create it with a slightly lower quality. ) When the ramlink drivers are working properly, you should be able to do it from that no problem!, and when Maurice pumps up the CMD HD speeds, that should do it too. But in any case, it's Definitly in Commodore's Near future, if not NOW for those with an IDE64. > Keep diggind man Jos has still a lot of surprises left I'm pretty amazed at how easy it is to ... "discover" new uses for A Commodore running JOS. It's just so, exploitable, and so Open to trying new things. I'm having a tiny bit of trouble getting more of the programs like Dict to work... but I am working on it. Has anyone tried Dict? I got a report that there was a problem, so I re-uploaded the file just incase it was bad. I still think that is totally cooL! Later all!
