We 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!
A client has contacted me about live streaming. He wants to broadcast a live meeting over the internet so that other people can watch it.
I've never looked in to something like this - I guess I need to find some software that will let me re-broadcast the stream - ie someone at the meeting would connect to my server and stream it up to the server, and my server would then broadcast it out to anyone who is connected.
So, what sort of software should I be looking at? Are there any guides around on the internet or anything that can help me out?
I have been looking through the forum, but I have had a hard time finding much about this topic. I am attempting to broadcast live video feed on my website and I wanted to set it up so people can view the live streaming video directly on their web browser. I use mostly Windows based servers(Windows 2003 Server and XP Pro). I have looked at different video streaming programs like flash, media player, and divx, which would be the best for what I am trying to do? Computer power and bandwidth are not an issue with my current setup. If anyone has any experience or knowledge on this I would be very grateful for your input. I would appreciate any information involving any of the steps in this process from capturing the video to having users access it on my website.

I've read that streaming can be made via web server and streaming media server. The first type has only one advantage and this is that it allows to utilize existing infrastructure, while the second type offers more effective network throughput and (what's more important for me as an end-user) allows for better video and audio quality and support of the advanced features.
Now looking at the hosting plans how do I tell which type of server is used by the host?
I'm interested in this particular plan

so, where do i host livezilla?
I have a problem with Parallels Plesk v12.0
Hosting type on website became "No web hosting."
When I try to change hosting type to "Forwarding" it changes ok.
If I change hosting type to "Website hosting", I get message "The hosting type for "website name" was successfully changed.", but hosting plan still stay "No web hosting"....
I need to switch two corporate web sites from a provider which has been providing spotty up time and poor reliability especially on their email servers; worst thing about them is that when they're down we get no notice, until we notice or customers complain. We've had outages for email that lasted as long as 72 hours. I'm not sure how our service is configured there, but I would guess shared hosting.
I understand the differences in shared hosting, virtual private or dedicated server, and dedicated hosting unmanaged or managed. What I'm not sure about is what would be best for our needs. If I dont get other advice, I'll probably sign up for shared hosting with a provider that has other service types available.
We do not do any E-commerce, but our website is our advertising and if we're down we can lose sales. Our customers need access to documentation downloads and get upset if we're down. Our current site has shown these statistics on average per day: 3000-4000 hits, 3000-4000 files 200 visits. Our monthly bandwidth was a maximum of 2GB over the past year. We need less than 50 email addresses.
Phone support is necessary, 24/7 would be nice. We need server monitoring and security, good uptime and reliability statistics or a guarantee. Control panel and statistics would be nice. We dont need any website design tools.
I've used Futurequest for a website in the past but their geared to E-Commerce and have no phone support. I have some websites registered with Dotster but they're very light on support. A colleague has used Lunarpages for similar businesses, I think, and he recommended them. He indicated they were good for him with phone support.
If you're still reading, I'd appreciate any guidance, both for type of service and for specific providers.

on my internet travels today I found a site that provides a warranty on web hosts. I'm not entirely sure of the details so I can't really comment on it but I found it rather interesting.
Anyway, some deeper digger found that this site is merely a rebranded hosting affiliate, with their top provider rank held by the one and only, Bluehost!
my company's current hosting contract expires in May and I'm in need to find another one that will hopefully suit me better and cause much less headache.
I'll try to list some basic needs I got:
10gb bandwidth
10gb space
Mass email marketing ability! This is important!
I have a member list of about 30,000 who I email twice a week! These people are opt-in recipients of these emails.
On top of that I'd like to start mining and sending out opt-in requests of about 50-100,000 a month to NEW emails that I don't have direct permission to email.
I obviously have software to manage, clean, send out in batches, and do whatever else you have to for proper email marketing.
From some research I got the idea that I would be better off with some offshore VPS/dedicated host that won't shut us down for emailing. We will do our best to keep the bounces at minimum as well as keep up-to-date blacklists/unsubscribers.
I'm planning to open picture site similar to flickr perhaps and was wondering how much bandwidth do i need. what kind of hosting type do i need.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWhat limiting factors should clients most look into when they shop for a type of hosting, starting with shared ? When these factors are importants, a client would at least go for VPS.
I listed some of them I know (for a shared/reseller hosting type) :
- Fact that you can only host websites (no backup, no specialties hosting)
- No control over what's installer on the server
- Can go to slow to fast, depends on which sites you're hosted with
- Account can be suspended in case of traffic surge
- No SSH most of the time
we are thinking of starting a hosting company and was wondering what type of certificate we need to secure the sever and our clients can us to secure their carts? I see other hosting companies calling it a shared certificate. Sorry for the double post put it in the wrong area.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm starting a streetwear clothing company and am about to get a website done to display my catalogue - it will have medium amounts of flash and will be like most other e-commerce clothing stores
However, I won't be needing a full e-commerce site as I do not intend to sell through my website - if needed, all I hope to have on it is a link for payments to be made via paypal
What I will need is a host that is reliable and doesn't bug out as soon as traffic to my site increases - I have no idea as to the amount of traffic i will be receiving when things are just starting out but I'd like to at least be prepared for high traffic - I was stupid enough to believe in all the overselling from big hosting companies until I did more reading - now I know their limits are just for show and I want to avoid getting shut down or whatever for putting a load on their resources
My hope is that some of you learned ones can advise me on the direction i should be heading Though I have no idea exactly what VPS and dedicated servers are, I assume these are more suitable for my needs? Are big hosting companies more reliable when it comes to their package plans for VPS or dedicated servers?
When I try to set a domain's hosting type from "Forwarding" to "Website hosting" I get the following error:
Error:
Unable to start (/c ""C:Program Files (x86)ParallelsPleskadminbinusermng.exe" exist [username]")
at Plesk impersonation(PipeServer::ServerThread::runAs line 886)
at Unable to execute applicationzif_plesk_proc_open line 1274)
What I tried:
- Using different usernames;
- Checked plesksrv.exe permissions [URL] ;
And right now I'm running the PP Reconfigurator tool, option Plesk File Security, cause I think this issue is related with permissions.
I have a "little" problem. I can not change the hosting type for a domain.
There is the error:
"Internal error.

What am I doing wrong?
Following configuration given:
Abo with "domain.com" - Hosting Type - Webspace (with E-Mail Services)
Subdomain "sub.domain.com" - Hosting Type - Forward
Customer asked us to activate Forward for "domain.com "to other Domain for 2 weeks - but as soon as a Subdomain points on a Domain - I can NOT change the Hosting Type anymore ... WHY???
If I want to change Hosting Type from Hosting to Forward for some weeks - it always deletes the whole Webspace for the Domain ... ?!?
1) Why can't I change Hosting Type when a Sub-Domain is created?
2) Why can't I tell Plesk to change Hosting Type WITHOUT deleting the whole Webspace ...

Does anyone own any video sharing websites? if so what hosting companies do you use. I cant afford a dedi yet as i want to grow but want to start out with VPS or shared
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have installed Plesk 12.0.18 on my server and want to change the hosting-type from "Forwarding" to "Web hosting". I change the type via "Websites & Domains" view (see attachments).
After I insert username and password, I get following error message:

Deleting the domain and creating it from scratch is a bad option. I would have to create all e-mail accounts and migrate the data.
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)
Just curious if any of you know of good ways to handle the bandwidth costs associated with hosting high traffic video sites.
For a future project I plan a dedicated server, but was hoping there might be a cheap way to avoid bandwidth costs - such as Amazon S3 (however from my calculations this is an expensive option).

i would like to start a video/movie streaming website on one of our U.S based servers. But i wanted to do some checking first.
These are the questions i have:
1. If i download torrent movies to my local PC am i allowed to upload them to our server? or if i have purchased the movie at home on dvd am i allowed to upload that onto the site? or is all that illegal?
2. Would this type of thing be useful?
I got the idea from those TV show websites around but when you try to watch the actual show there is all Japanese subtitles and they are full of adds and pop up's
is their any hosts out thier that are ideal for online video sharing websites (youtube clones) that are good for the added load of bandwith and HD size needed for these situations.

Currently, I'm with hostmonster.com but they only offer one package so I dont know if I can have faster/more bandwidth.
I'm not sure if we're leaning on dedicated or VPS yet, but as a starter post, what's a webhoster you guys would recommend for a hosting company that is reliable and robust that we can scale with....as our requirements grow.
We're currently scripting how the new site will be redesigned, but there will be video blog portion that we expect to cheap up bw.
Anyone can tell us (from experience) a good hosting company for dedicated servers?
