Quicktime streaming videos

[heathpitts]

I have a client that wants to create streaming videos of classes that they have recorded.

Basically she was trying to use windows media and it simply looks like crap at the low setting for dial-up modems. Quicktime looks better in this regardto me and it sounds tons better as well.

What I want to present in my proposal is for them to use Quicktime Pro to encode their videos twice. Once for dial-up, once for dsl.

They will have to use the windows version of Quicktime.

I need to know if i need to use the hinted streaming along with Darwin streaming server or just use fast start without the darwin server.

Is there a way to do this reencoding of the avi file as a batch so all they have to do is start the process and it will create the two files for dial-up and dsl that I need?
