I am trying to setup a scanner feed from my BC780XLT with text tags. I would like to use Windows Media Encoder but everytime I try to do it I cannot capture the screen to send the text tags. It says that I need a direct show comaptible driver. Any ideas or alternatives. Thank you!!

thats neat...If I cannto use Media Encoder I see that some people use WinAmp to stream with text tags. How can I accomplish that? Thanks.

You can use the Cape Cod/Scan Gwinnetts tutorial, for text tags and streaming MP3 to Winamp listeners, it uses Simplecast (encoder) and Icecast (server), or you can use ARC Eazystream for a simpler (but costlier) solution...
