Author Best Practices for real-time server video conversion

Had a question regarding conversion of any uploaded video into FLV VP6.
Looking to do something similar to what Google Video, YouTube, and
Videoegg are doing. There are a few solutions out there and was
interested in any experiences or insight that anyone might have on the
following:

* On2 Flix Engine 8.0
<http://www.on2.com/developer/flix-engine-sdk/> - $2,500 per
server - multiple platforms - set of DLL's that can integrate
into workflow a server


* Sorenson Media
<http://www.sorensonmedia.com/solutions/prod/mx_win.php> + On2
Plugin <http://www.sorensonmedia.com/solutions/prod/vp6_win.php>-
Using a watch folder you could convert on the fly. Not sure how
scalable this would be for numerous uploads.


* Anystream Agility <http://www.anystream.com/agility_output.asp> -
Windows Solution - not yet sure of cost or VP6 support - a
complete workflow solution

Anyone have any experiences with these products? Am I missing any that
would fit into the FLV VP6, upload and encode, server bucket?

Would appreciate any assistance.
