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.
on april 19th, we started a new internet radio station and now 3 months later, we're using up over 250GB of monthly bandwidth and have quite some listeners throughout the day. Therefore we want to have more security for our listeners that our stream stays online. I currently just use WinAMP to broadcast to my shoutcast server and CentovaCast takes care of the rest, but if I don't stream, listeners don't hear music and that's becoming a bigger problem everyday.
So I wondered. Can I buy a Windows dedicated server or VPS, install WinAmp on that machine and use a remote desktop to control and configure our stream, like I now do on my local PC? And does anybody has any experience with that?
I'm going to set up a streaming server at home, since I think streaming hosting is very expensive, so I would rather to spend my money in a good home connection.
That is where my question starts, what home connection should I have in order to stream live video at 200 kbps to over 5000 clients?
We have few dedicated bandwidth servers with a well reputed company. However 10-15% of our customers are complaining about video buffering (windows media live streaming, not recorded). I have asked for their speed test results (To nearest city) and they all seems well above 4Mbps and our videos are at 500kbps max.
We have enabled features like fast cache, fast buffer, and wireless corrections from Windows media Services 2003. However, nothing seems to fix the issue.
1. Do you guys have similar experience with streaming? If so what have you done to fix it? Is there any special settings in Windows media Services 2003 that i should be worried about?
I have set up my Virtual Private Server and uploaded all my site's files to /var/www folder. Before that, there was an old simple 'index.html' file
Code: <html> <head> <title>INDEX</title> </head> <body> <h1>IT WORKS!!!!</h1> </body> </html> and when I typed the address www.mydomain.com it displayed correctly. Then I deleted this html and uploaded my files through FTP and now the browser says :
Code: Warning: Unknown: failed to open stream: Permission denied in Unknown on line 0
Fatal error: Unknown: Failed opening required '/var/www/index.php' (include_path='.:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear') in Unknown on line 0
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...

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
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 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?

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.
We looking for a solution for our website. We currently stream about 1.5 TB of videos a month and have about 100 gig of them. We will be opening up our site to allow user uploads, mean that will will also be needing to encode videos.
We are looking at Iwebs Power Servers.
2 x Xeon Quad Core 2.0Ghz
320GB SATA 2
8Gb Ram
10,000GB transfer a month
100mbps link
$240 a month.
We plan on updating the site to run .NET 3.5, this adds $70 month onto the price. Seems like good deal. Can anybody recommend anything better.
For an extra $200 we can upgrade to SCSI. How much will this improve the performance.
Most of our users are in the US and Australia, Iweb servers are located in Montreal Canada. How much will this effect the perfomace of our site.
I have read that some hosts have ffMpeg, Menecoder, FMS3 already installed can andybody point me into the direction of one of these
Does anyone know any video sharing script that allows me to display videos from [url]and [url] on my site.
I am not looking for a script that allows my users to upload videos to my site, but a script that uses the [url] and [url]to search and display videos.
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)
