Controlling the Bitrate for an embedded WMP file

Hi!
I am trying to control the bitrate for an embedded WMP file. I want the file
to be forced to use a certain bitrate onscreen. I am going to have a page
with 3 "thumbnail" feeds and one large "main" feed. The 3 thumbnail feeds
will be the lowest possible bitrate (video, no audio) and the large feed will
be the main viewing feed (high quality video and audio). The user would click
on a thumbnail to view that feed in the main viewing window. So, I want to
control the bit rates of the 4 files - 3 low-rate thumbnail and one high-rate
large file. Does anyone know a way of doing this??

Thanks for any help!!

-Amber

You're just creating multiple files and controlling which one they play back
via scripting. Look up the WMP SDK and scripting the embedded WMP object on
MSDN. =)
