[streaming] No Audio Above 384K - Hardware Requirements?

Hello,

I cannot seem to stream any audio above 384K.  I am streaming 
audio-only (no video) from an Osprey-500 card to a multicast IP.  
Everything works great - except above 384K there is no sound.  I have 
tried this using both mpga and mp4a transcode options with identical 
results.

Watching the CPU monitor, it appears that anything above 384K spikes 
the CPU, at which time VLC seems to "give up," and it quits trying to 
send the stream.  I am running this on a dedicated server for this 
application, using Win2k with 768MB RAM running a PIII-700 CPU.  I know 
that others have successfully streamed upwards of 2-3 megabits with 
VLC, and I wonder whether my hardware may not be beefy enough (although 
honestly, that would surprise me).  Any suggestions?  Thanks!
