Hi folks. I handle Ogg and Mp3 streams for an NPR affiliate (all talk radio), and we're currently using PCs as the hardware endpoint.

I was curious if anyone here could recommend a small form factor hardware device to handle the encoding, rather than a PC.

Is this something people do at all? I found the Barix Instreamer but that only does VBR as far as I can tell, and we'd need constant bit rate encoding at 48kbps.

Cheers and thanks
