Video Streaming

With recent advancements in codec technology and the rollout of broadband connections, streaming video over the internet is now a viable and valuable feature for any web site.

Applications

There are many possibilities, you can personally welcome customers to your web site, executives can make speeches, a new product can be demonstrated, presentations can be made online or a video can be included simply to entertain your visitors.

Development

In implementing video streaming there are many factors to take into account at each stage: the production of the video, encoding, embedding, and hosting.

Alt. Productions are well experienced in this field, our own alternative sports productions have promotional web sites featuring streaming and downloading video clips.

The files which are sent can be as little as 300Kb for a 1 minute clip, small enough to be viewed across a standard 56k modem connection.

Most videos will play perfectly well from a normal web server, although specialist servers are required if the video is likely to be viewed simultaneously by a large number of visitors.
