well we converted a 120meg Mr Sid file using the Mr Sid viewer and it =
was like 6 gigs in Tiff format. Linux doesnt support any files over 2 =
gigs. :-(

  I don't have anything on the fly.  But I purchased the MrSid SDK from =
LizardTech ($500)  that will convert SIDS to Tiffs then use some =
ImageMagick Script to convert the TIFS to 8 bit color map.  Based on an =
8 Meg sid it makes 150 Meg Tiff (3 minutes each), which converts to =
about a 55 Meg 8 Bit  (3 minutes) colormapped tif. =20

  Its about a 6 minute process per file.  And it takes quite a bit of =
storage.  But hey it works.

  Not sure if this helps.  But its an implementation.  $500 + =
ImageMagick + some script writing...non on the fly.

  If you find something else, I'd like to know about it.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to integrate Mr SID with a mapserver or =
mapscript application? Any good "on the fly" mr sid converters out =
there?
