The average bit rate for DVD is 4-5 Mbps (max is 9.8) but it would be 
inefficient to stream MPEG-2. If you want a projectable image, you're not 
going to need 6 Mbps up and down. Someone else suggested H.264 but I've 
found that even crufty old H.323 offers sufficient quality to display on a 
large screen TV (40+ inches). Some testing with larger screens would be 
required, however. You could save yourself a lot of time and money by 
first finding an individual or company that specializes in streaming video 
before you overbuy on bandwidth. If you want to do it on your own, check 
out some of the lower end gear by Linksys and D-Link then compare them 
with Polycom or Axis Communications, etc.
