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 am developing a web application for a private investigative firm. They do surveillance work and therefore have surveillance videos. I would like the capabilities of uploading the videos online and allowing the client to login and view their surveillance video online.
Currently, we get the video from the PI, put it on a DVD and then mail it to the client.
This takes too long. We want the client to be able to view the video online.
Some of these videos can be up to 2 hours long.
First, is this even possible?
Second,
- how much bandwidth would a website like this take?
- Is there a host that can hold hundreds of GB of video?
I want to convert it to flash to save file size and also so I can stream it.
get Video hosting website or company Like you tube.
That youtube is banned in my country.
I have a site which has a short FLV video of about 4 mins. My current host is a bit slow and so the playback is staggered.
I was wondering if anyone can recommend a fast but affordable host for FLV files.
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 RelatedJust 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 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!
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.
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?
(Poss about 1000gb Bandwidth PM)

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 have a client how want a website that his can go to and view their house/business from video surveilance camera. What type of hosting service do I need.
Is godaddy.com a good choice?
I'd like a host that can grow as my user base grows. I'd like to stream video, similar to what revision3.com does.
But I'd also like the ability to do live streaming video.
what the best server option for this is out there? Which company?
I wanted to build an Adult Video Sharing and i don't know what hosting to buy some say that VPS some says Shared Hosting
Here is my Plan

2. is ffmpeg really needed if i will just embed videos from other site?

Can you please help me?
have built quite a library of music now. It would be great if I could upload music to my hosting account, and then just access it from my phone. Would that be allowed so long as I did not share this music with others? Where might I be able to set this up? I checked with hostgator and they said it was not okay.

Setting up a members video site.
Best if the web host can come with a ready members template and shopping cart/payment service where I can just upload my videos.
Can anyone recommend the best cost-effective solution for serving up video files to websites on other servers?
Basically looking for a central storage location to hold video files (flv, swf) that will be hotlinked from websites on other servers.
I'm currently using about 200GB bandwidth monthly, and need to increase that to about 500GB without violating any TOS or getting cut-off/suspended.
Not sure if the best option will be a hosting account, file storage site, etc.
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.

We are going to launch Video Tours service for real-estate companies.
The video files will be stored on the server and shown by request.
What kind of server should we use for this task?
Are there any specific requirements to the server and the network?
any DVR / IP Cams, etc setup like the Geovision setup.
what you are running hardware/software wise.
if it would be possible to video cast a video game match via remote desktop? I am trying to do some research to see if it would at all be possible. I've never really messed with it but from what I understand you need two pc's connected together. One setup as the "game" machine which follows around the players and watches the match. The second "capture" machine does just that, caputes all the video/audio that is coming from the game machine and uploads it to a streaming server where users can watch through WMP or whatever.
The biggest problem I see with this is if a person tries to video cast from their home connection the upstream would likely be crap. If the person where able to connect to a remote desktop and run the game on a huge backbone the upstream would be great. I don't know if this would work or not because of the delay between the actual client and the colo boxes.
I'm wondering if anyone can come up with any way to stream live video off my computer to my server. Then allow all my viewers to watch using my server rather than my own bandwidth.
A script / software combo would be sweet.
server is currently running centos i am willing to change it though.
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 ...
