Dedicated Server & Media

Apr 4, 2009

Don't have much experience with dedicated servers, Just wanted your opinions on this.

Quote:

100Mbit Burstable Unmetered Dedicated Server #1
CPU - Pentium E5200 (dual core)
Memory - 2GB RAM
Hard Disk Space - 300GB HDD

According to the package, it's " 100Mbit Burstable Unmetered Dedicated Server "

I plan on hosting only media, (video files). Are these specs enough to support alot of people downloading?

Also, I've never setup this sort of server before - when I go to click on order now it asks me certain preferances.

Quote:

Raid Controller, OS version, Operating system, Control Panel

There is quite a few options to choose from the drop down menu, I have no idea what they mean.

With dedicated server's is it the same as normal vps? Login, upload, Cpanel etc?
Or is there something else to it?

Just need to host media - nothing special.

Windows Media Server

Apr 25, 2009

my Hosting service (Hostway) offered Windows Media Server at the time. I wanted visitors to have the ability to quickly stream .wma's, so I went for the cost.

now...I'm unemployed; & money is real tight...so, I was thinking of dropping Hostway...going over to GoDaddy; & switching my means of musical delivery to .mp3's.

So:

1) How much slower is mp3 streaming from a conventional server than .wma from a dedicated server?

2) Is there a way to speed it (mp3) up (save decreasing file size)?

3) Will .wma's stream without the dedicated server; & if so...how is that implemented?

I really need to save money in this economy...but I don't want my listeners to suffer. Is that possible?

I am going to be buying a dedicated server from kimsufi Most likely the 2XL Package.

My streamers will be using my server aswell, On weekends we will be running 3-4 streams at a time, weekdays 1-2 at a time.

Media Server Running Windows Server 2003 Std: Yes Or No

Jul 10, 2007

Most people probably run Linux on their media servers, but since I don't know much about Linux and the media server we have is unmanaged, I was wondering how you guys feel about running Windows Server 2003 Std on a media server instead of Linux. We'll only be using the server to host Flash video files (.flv) and we'll be serving those vids on websites hosted on other servers, resulting in approx. 50,000-100,000 media views per day (filesizes range from approx. 5MB to 10MB). We don't want to run Windows Media Services, just a Web server (IIS6) and have the Flash video players on the external websites take care of the streaming/downloading part.

Building A Streaming Media Server

May 3, 2006

I need to build a video server that supports remote inbound live streams (multiple sources) and multiple outbound streams. I'm interested in hearing feedback or suggestions on Real Media Server, Microsoft Media Server, or other alternatives. Please share your thoughts on any of these. I would prefer Linux hosting and would prefer Windows Media formats. I would love to hear what some of you have had successes with.

Windows Media Server & Web Server

Jan 16, 2009

I have a company that wants to stream some live events via Windows Media Encoder/Windows Media Player. I believe the best route is to use a WMS, stream to the WMS, then the CDN would pull from there for events. Can someone help me explain a Windows Media Server versus a web server? Can you host web sites on a WMS? Is WMS just an extension to a regular Windows 2003 server?

Media Server Or Web Server + NAS

Feb 25, 2008

I currently use a Dedicated Server:

Quad Core, 8GB Ram, 3TB HDD

as a Media server which streams video clips etc... on my websites.

But Im moving my sites to a UK colo,

I have been advised that its better to have Multiple Web Servers connected to a NAS / Storage Server?

As I dont want to have multiple servers doing seperate jobs I want 1 cluster e.g. Web Servers + Load Balancers + Storage + SQL

I Purchased a HP StorageWorks NAS 1200s 1TB

LINK: [url]

Will this do the job? Or should I use this as backup storage and get something else?

Anyone Try VPS Media

May 1, 2008

I was just wondering if anyone else here uses or has used VPS Media?

I have been with them since Monday and running a Counter-Strike server. So far my experience has been positive. My VPS was up and running within minutes of signing up and they were not hesitant to help me prepare it for CS server.

Now I'm thinking about buying another VPS from them for a web server but I cant decide which distro to pick. I'm familiar with CentOS, is Debian or Fedora much different for running a web server?

Media Hosting

Apr 22, 2009

Hopefully this will be a quick and fairly simple question. I already have my site hosted with another provider and very, very happy with the service.

However, i want to add video support to my site. However the current provider i use doesnt have the functionality i need (FFMPeg, etc).

So what i am looking for is a reliable host who will store, convert/encode my files and then stream them for a decent prices. As it will be a new feature to my site im not looking at spending a fortune to start with (i know, how many times have you heard that?) but will be happy to upgrade capacity as and when.

Im not interested in fancy cPanels or bogged down features for "Web Hosting" which i will never use. I just need a host that can store, encode and stream my media (i will handle the scripting side. Ideally they would be located within Europe, but thats not 100% nessesary.

Recently I bought a hosting on MediaTemple. My previous site index file is index.php. But when I uploaded my site to MediaTemple it can not see it.

Where can I set default index file for MediaTemple? I need to change it to index.php instead of the index.html.

Please don't redirect me to MT support, they are too slow.

Who Offers KVM With Virtual Media?

Jun 5, 2008

I use Virtuozzo with layeredtech, and since I'm on the move anyway, thought I'd like to try out some different Virtualization products before the migration.

Allot of these products like bare-metal installs though... which is why I'm particularly looking for "virtual media" on the KVM.

Media Temple - Outage For Over A Day

May 6, 2009

I manage and develop an e-commerce site which the original designer had put on Media Temple. Their grid service and general marketing looks and sounds superb. This is no doubt why a lot of people go with them.

For months now they have been giving my client problems. People in certain places can't access the site because MT are always up to tricks moving the servers around. On top of that their MySQL performance has latency issues which makes most pages load slowly.
I decided to move the site to Knownhost(vps) who seem to offer good service at a reasonable price.
Before I could even begin to transfer the emails to the new server I get reports that the site has been down for over 24 hours. The site is still down after a whole day. This means my client can't sell their stuff and I can't transfer to the new host either.


I called MT and they offered free hosting for a year. I don't think it's worth it. The uptime and service and performance I've seen has been no better than $5/month shared hosting. For a site like this I don't think it's worth risking uptime (and therefore sales) on a company that can't get their act together. I've never had downtime from any other host before, let alone multiple times like MT.

I'm putting this out there just to warn any people who may be thinking of going to Media Temple.

I would be interested to know others experiences with Media Temple.

Web Host For Various Media Formats

Nov 7, 2009

I'm really enjoying all the helpful topics that this website has to offer . However, I've still been having trouble deciding on a web host.

I'm planning to make a website that will consist of all different forms of media, (video, audio, photos) and I wanted to know if there were any web hosts out there that specialize in that sort of thing?

Also, I wanted to know if Wordpress was a good choice for someone like me who doesn't have a whole lot of website building skill but wants to make a decent looking site.

VPS Media Great 1st Month

Jun 3, 2008

I found vps media through WHT about a month ago, I saw they allowed several gaming servers on their vpses, and it was interesting to give a CS 1.6 and CS Source a try on a vps.

I signed up using a 20% off special, which is pretty cheap, compared to other xen providers.

I've been really happy with their service, as they are very easy to communicate with, and I love their notifications whenever a scheduled maintenance is due.

Their community is still small, but they're growing little by little, I saw a big spike of people registered in their forums right after a new WHT offer post. Their blog is current, well written and specially good content, mostly just news about their service, but always interesting in reading them.

Media Hosting/Amazon S3

Feb 1, 2008

we recently launched a site that has a you-tubeish clone to it, none the less the media progressive download bottlenecks the the rest of the sites functions beyond video...

I've been looking into solutions with moving the files elsewhere.

I was looking at Lime Light Networks but they were $1/gig, granted i'm sure their service is great but we're currently moving 3tb and have been going up around 500gb every month. So we really can't afford that.

I just stumbled on Amazon S3 and that looks real attractive, has anybody used their services or know of a site that does that I could test it out.

And the last stupid question, I'm trying to figure out how it works, they make it sound like all you have to do is put a CNAME in your zone, but I need the video clips to be put there as they're uploaded...

UK Media Hosting (mp3/avi) - No Databases Or Php

Jun 4, 2008

I have most of my sites on the very reliable clook.co.uk but I only only get around a Gig of bandwidth per month per site.

I'm thinking of getting an unlimited hosting package so I could upload client's music files, large images, video clips etc.. Nothing is illegal or adult. Then I could host my sites as normal at Clook and then point to all the very large files being hosted at the new place.

I think I'd get about 10Gig of traffic max a month. And as it'll just be an extended online harddrive I've no real need for databases, email, php, cPanel etc...

I've seen some unlimited offers at hostpapa.co.uk for 4.99 a month with a free domain. Is there a catch? What do you recommend?

We purchased a EV Certificate: [url]and have tried to install it on Media Temple.

However there are 4 parts to it and can not work out how to get it to work, we tried their user panel and still tells us key is invalid. Tried the Media Temple helpdesk and they have no idea either.

Does anyone have experience installing these?
