From: "David Johns" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Bandwidth between encoder and server in live Surestream Can someone tell me how to calculate the required bandwidth between encoder and server when using Surestream? (NB I'm not talking about bandwidth between server and player) I need to do a remote (outside) broadcast, encoding my signal on-site and sending it back to my server in Central London. I intend to get some ISDN lines installed to do this but if I choose 28, 56 and Dual ISDN as my Surestream codecs, how many ISDN channels will I need? Is my bitrate total just 28 plus 56 plus 128? Or - because of all the intermediate bitrate streams - is it some other figure? Help would be much appreciated. [ RF: Easiest thing to do is consult the "Bitrate to server" field under View->Statistics in the RealProducer. We also recommend allowing for overhead by increasing by 15%-20%. ] Regards, David ******************************************************* The RealForum is an email discussion group focused on using RealNetworks products.
