Most amateurs are using a DV converter and taking the video in through firewire. My company uses the Osprey 560 from Viewcast: http://www.viewcast.com/products/osprey.html Their more inexpensive card are quite good. You'll need some very fast drives to capture raw AVI. We use Medea RAID

I'll chime in also. We use Panda on five machines in our office. It's never missed a virus and cleaned one up the first time we used it. Sometimes it'll get stuck in the download of an infected file. If you turn off the automatic protection for a moment the email downloads and can be thrown

The basics for live webcasting are: Connectivity: You should have a connection on site that can handle the bandwidth of the streams you'll be putting out plus overhead. DSL and cable need a lot of overhead, T1 or Dual ISDN need very little. Video and Audio equipment: You're all set here.

As it always is with video links, you should be using a metafile (asx) and make sure that your server's MIME types are set correctly for wmv and asx. This will insure that it plays in all circumstances, assuming that the WM Player is installed. I'm sending this from a unix account; makes it a

Outside of the fact that the video is black with no audio, you need to use a .ram metafile for this to work in all curcumstances. See: http://service.real.com/help/library/guides/production/realpgd.htm Chapter 10, about half way through, explains all. This is an older Guide but I think it is

You're going to pay for this one way or the other. The easy way is to contract for streaming servers and bandwidth from a company like Playstream (www.playstream.com). The hard way is to put up your own server using the freebie Real Server. I've had inquiries like this from PTA's, Homeowner

You have a few choices to make. The most important is streaming vs. progressive download vs. download. streaming: the video streams in real time from a streaming server (i recommend www.playstream.com). Use Real or Windows Media Progressive Download: Video starts playing during download

Microsoft has all but won the race. Best video compression, most players installed. There are a few instances where you might use Real or QuickTime, e.g.: Real has the best audio codecs at low bitrates, QuickTime has the best looking video codec if you don't care about file size or download

Real is your first choice in this case only because you have the video encoded in Real already. You only need to install the player on all of your machines. windows Media should always be the first thought because of the install base, every Windows machine. Whether you use Real, WM, or

You'll have the same problems people are having with MPEG-4 now. All of the embed/qbject tags for video are optimized to a particular plugin or ActiveX control. You'll have to pick one or simply add an HREF link to the video and see which player grabs it. On Thu, 12 Sep 2002, Howard Cheng
