Hi John,

I take the file size and split it up into 4 bytes for squirting out in the
tcp packet.

The code is in mvp.vb, Sock_Receive_Media

' file size
fs = FileLen(RC.MVPStreamMovie.Filename)
b(16) = Int(fs / 16777216)
b(17) = Int((fs - (b(16) * 16777216)) / 65536)
b(18) = Int((fs - (b(16) * 16777216) - (b(17) * 65536)) / 256)
b(19) = fs - (b(16) * 16777216) - (b(17) * 65536) - (b(18) * 256)

Where b is a byte array and fs is a long

Thanks
Tony
