I'll definitely try that. Writing a small script to do the conversion is 
not an issue, I'll just have to figure out how to configure the 
webserver appropriately.

It's probably not actually streaming I need, just that the file transfer 
starts before the conversion is finished. Not sure if there's anything 
special I need to do to make sure it does, but I guess I'll find out 
once everything else is in place...
