An Idea For A Program
« on: July 10, 2003, 02:23:00 PM »
well the xbox can only run a single process at a time.  So the xbox can't run a game while streaming real-time video over the network.

However, the bios allows real-time video capture.  But, in order to stream video over a network at a useable speed, some serious compression would be needed.  Compression takes up a ton of CPU time, and thus makes it impossible to compress and stream media at real-time... at least with the XB's CPU.
