Video for Windows - setting mpeg bitrate

I'm working on a netmeeting like application in visual basic 6 using the AVphone 2 control. The problem is the control can select the mpeg(v3) codec but it doesn't set the codec's data rate (bitrate) although i set it in the compression dialog box (standard video for windows - window). I need a peace of visual basic code(or a small control in another language) that simply puts the mpeg v3 codec in the right state (certain datarate) , so afterwards the avphone control gets the right data right when it captures from the control. IT IS POSSIBLE to send a simple ICM VfW message using the control's sendmessage method (see [login to view URL] for the documentation, it sends 3 long value's). Alternative sollutions can be talked about. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional peace of code or a small activex control that doesn't block the AVphone control from working 2) Complete ownership and distribution copyrights to all work purchased. ## Platform Windows 98/ME/2000/xp
