Is there a way to encode a DivX file into an iPhone-compatible video file while the DivX is downloading/streaming?

Further, is it possible to re-stream the resulting iPhone-compatible video to the iPhone with a minimal (say, 2 minute or so) delay?

I've seen other questions about encoding iPhone-compatible videos but they don't quite address the streaming video source and potential of streaming output that I'm interested in.
