[mary-users] mp3 example

[Spencer Lord]

Hi Ingmar,

Thanks for the reply.

When you say you abandoned the tritonius solution  with Mary 4.0, do you
mean that you stopped supporting and testing it -- but it may still work
with some tweaks perhaps.  Or do you mean you know for sure it will not
work?

Thanks for the suggestion regarding piping to a converter.  Maybe I can do
something along those lines.  I do prefer the old functionality that allowed
you to stream mp3 directly from mary server .  If it would not be too hard
for me to make tritonius solution work with 4.0, i'd prefer doing that work.

have you considered some form of integration with xuggler.  It does have the
same cross-platform issues as tritonius, but supports many codecs.

Thanks again,
Spencer
