I will be starting a website featuring my own videos. They will be all flash based. Now I will be having 1 main website, which will be very fast and with its own forums as well. I'll probably go with reliablesite.
Anyhow, what I want to do. Is host flv files on hosts such as dreamhosts, host monster, site5, webhostasp, eleven2, hostgator. As they have > 5TB hosting (yes I know they oversell, but even if I get 75% - its good).
So, if I have lost you, let me explain in more detail.
The page in the reliable host will have links (to 5 files, which the locations are randomised in order with each refresh)..
I produce video. My clients want to put education archival video content (Windows media) for students on the web. At most 10 students a day will log on for a few hours.
I also have clients that want live windows media video streaming. Up to 50 users logging in at most for a 3 hour lecture, only a couple times a year at this point.
I'd like to use one company for the archival(on demand) and live web casting/streaming. Any ideas? Or should I just use 2 different hosting companies? Please tell me companies that you like and have used!
Hi Im new to this and about to launch a site where visitors to the site can upload videos and then they can be checked by me and then submitted to the site. Im looking for a hosting account which wont be madly expensive.
Ive heard about unmetred etc, but ive also heard about being charged large bills for excessive bandwidth etc..
Can anyone recommend a good solution to me that wont literally cost the earth?
I have a client who wants to build a subscription online training site. This site will be hosting proprietary videos that need to be streamed (vs. downloaded).
Can anyone recommend a reliable hosting provider that:
- Supports ecommerce - Supports streamed Flash video - Provides a way to control user's access to videos (only access what they've purchased)
I work for an NFP and have multiple video files I'd like to setup on my current webserver. As you can guess, i don't have the sufficient bandwidth to support the traffic.
What's the best/most cost-efficient option? What would be ideal is to embed a player into our webpages (similar to what youtube provides) and the streaming is done in the background by the hosting provider. Obviously, there are legal issues around putting this content on any of the free or public video-sharing sites.
Is this something VPS can do or are there separate options?
We're not looking for domain names, IP's or much sophistication other than just hosting the video files and providing us with instructions/code on how to embed inside our existing website.
I'm the owner of pwn-tube.com and am looking for a dedicated server. It needs to have at least a 250gb hard drive, preferably two in raid. The processor needs to be good enough to convert the files while still keeping a site up and going. For RAM I'm guessing 2-4GB. But most importantly it needs to have unmetered bandwidth, and a 100mbps port, with room to upgrade.
I am expecting to host a sequel to a video exclusively, and the first video had 100,000 views. I'm also going to partner up with a game publisher with 16 million gamers.
I wanna know if upload media to server for streaming will slow your site down?
Reason is that I have a few audio books on my server for my members to listen to, and I have a feeling that my site is using more and more resources and its getting slower and slower each day.
He says he called up the internet company and upgraded his monthly plan to 60 gig or downloading a month, because he loves watching steaming videos(not youtube) im talking about actual movies.
They told him if he downloaded a 700mb movie or if he watched the exact same movie it would use up 700mb
So according to them downloading or streaming uses the same mb.
I found this hard to believe. But i have no wa of proving it.
I am a non-technical business investor looking to find a consultant (ideally from the adult video industry, since they, if anyone, should be experts) who can help me address the problems a company is having with the video production and streaming/progressive process. In short, they film, keyout, and code online virtual spokespeople for thousands of clients and I am told that they have both progressive and streaming video--but it does not always play correctly. I realize there are limitations in the conenction of the end user, and that it may be also be affected by the hosting company--but I want someone who can ell me what this company is doing correctly, and where there are opportunities for improvement.
Im currently running a streaming media (video) site on a p4 3.0 GHz with 2 gigs of ram. I think its a 10mpbs unmetered port. It streams extremly slow, to the point where it lags every second. It does this even though their is only 6 people on, with loads of 200 it just freezes up. What configuration would be able to hold traffic of 200 people constantly. I was on a faster server with hostgator, their dedicated pro but i went through the bandwidth in 5 days.
I've installed H264 Streaming Module for Apache 2 from: h**p://h264.code-shop.com/trac/wiki/Mod-H264-Streaming-Apache-Version2. Replace ** with tt
Loaded the mod in httpd.conf but my streaming of MP4 files don't improve at all. Other file types like: WMV & FLV at high bitrate or large filesize have no problem streaming. Only MP4 files are giving me problems when streaming through JW Flash Player.
I've made 2 test pages, read on:
1) h**p://x264-bb.com/vids/ >>> Replace ** with tt MP4 File hosted on a CDN server. This server hosting my MP4 file which works perfectly fine on any browsers anytime when visited, so this proves that my MP4 file has no problem to be streamed online.
2) h**p://x264-bb.com/vids2/ >>> Replace ** with tt The exact same MP4 File hosted on my server, giving me the headaches!
Problems facing are:
- can't load the streaming MP4 at all on IE7 - can't load on Firefox unless multiple times of refreshing if you get lucky - after working on Firefox, it stops working later - HTTP Pseudo Streaming is not working at all when it works on Firefox
I'm looking for a streaming server to stream a few flv videos, some mp3s, 3gp, mpg, mp4. If we can get this with a single host it would be really helpful.
I am thinking of streaming something to the internet and i will be streaming it through MMS through Windows Server 2003.
The streaming rate will be around 500-600 (Good Quality)
I want to know if i have 1000 people watching at the same time, what kind of server and bandwidth do i need so they dont experiance any buffering/slowness/downtime at all?
Is this server enough for what i want to do:
Dual core ATOM 330 CPU 2GB RAM 100mbit Unmetered Bandwidth
I have a website that users can download software (~150 MB).
I currently have a VPS server with Liquidweb. 20 GB RAID protected storage, 384MB dedicated RAM (maximum that can be achieved is 528MB on this package), 200GB Monthly Bandwidth Transfer. I don't use much of the 20GB disk space, but every month I use about 60 GB Bandwidth.
Now I plan on incorporating video files into one of my software packages. Because there will be about 1000 video files (each being about 3-4 MB), that would take up 3-4 GB drive storage; hence, I don't think it's feasible that the users can download the software package. Instead, I can keep the software package size to a minimum and the solution would be to STREAM the videos from within the program.
At this point, I can do one of two things:
1) Keep my VPN for my website and find a hosting provider that has STREAMING services for the videos
2) Upgrade my VPN to a Dedicated Server (Pentium 4 3GHZ Hyperthreaded, 2GB DDR SDRAM, 120GB 7200RPM SATA/8MB Cache, 2000GB Monthly Bandwidth) and have my website and streaming videos on one server.
Also, if I choose option #2, would you recommend upgrading to Dual 120GB SATA / Hardware Raid 1 [add $40/month] or 73GB 10,000RPM SCSI / 8MB Cache [add $60/month]
Again, I just need a server that will play the videos. I will have users that will be simultaneously connecting to the server to watch the videos from within the program so I would like the most stable and seamless choice.
how I would be able to set up streaming video on a server for live video as well as archived videos? We've got a client who is requesting streaming events live, bandwidth on our end shouldn't be an issue however I'm wondering where I would start? I've done streaming audio before but I have never done streaming video.
What is the best CMS for streaming videos (kinda like youtube) that will allow me to upload bulk amount of videos to the server, instead of uploading them one by one.
i know this probably isnt the right forum, however i think it is probably the closest to the right forum... so anyway...
I have a swf video player, when i load a page in explorer with the swf embeded into it.. the video begins to stream fine.. however if i try and change the explorer page the page wont change untill the entire video has been streamed.. anyone have any ideas as to why this is?... is this something wrong with
i want to ask you something if you know...we have the support of a small tv channel here in my area...they want to have their program live in the net....do you know any good company to give good prices of media live streaming or anything that i can see to help me....maybe some resseler plans in these??...any advices for the type of streaming...
Im searching 1u colocation in usa/europe with unmetered 100Mbps, can be shared but with guarantee 30Mbps.. Bandwidth will be use in 98% to Poland (70% to polish TPSA network).
Server will use only :80 port, every connection will be cut to 60KB per sec on web.. so bandwidth should not "jumping" from 30 to 60mbps etc..
I have a video streaming which is consuming around 3000gb of bandwidth presently its on citrex shared hosting i was thinking to move site to a dedicated box i have almost no knowledge of server setup are there some host who can help me setup these requirements and move site to dedicated box?
please note :- site is adult video sharing site ...
