The Live.com solution still doesnt support seeking in mpeg2 files though
right?

I have been looking a long time for a Open source /free VOD solution, and
there just doesn't seam to be any, I don't consider vlc's http approach a
scaleable solution when we are talking about high bitrate mpeg2 streams. I
just wih there was an open implementation of an RTSP streaming server which
supported seeking for mpeg2 files.
