Client display of Stream from Windows Media Encoder

Is there a means in Media Foundation to render from a stream over ip We are needing to display the stream created from windows media encoder without a large buffering delay. The delay needs to be at most 2-3 seconds. Using the media player control has a delay of up 15 seconds.

    Thanks for the response.

    We are using the "Pull from encoder" as the streaming option. We are not using a server. These machines are XP embedded, We need to use the pull from encoder options. There will be very few connections to the stream. We just want the delay to be reduced.

    Play with the setting inside the publishing point on the server.

    Limits, limit fast start bandwidth per player

    networking, enable buffering

    I think tweaking those 2 settings may help.

    Well, if your machines are running Windows XP, then Media Foundation (which is on Vista only) isn't going to be a viable option anyways. I might recommend posting this question on the Windows Media Encoder newsgroup: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/windowsmedia/community/newsgroups/WindowsMedia/default.mspx dg=microsoft.public.windowsmedia.encoder&lang=en&cr=US
