Hi David, Have you looked into the AccessGrid recording program AGVCR? On an average PC it handles a large number of sources without dropping packets. For example, on a 2.8Ghz Dell with 1GB RAM, running Windows XP, AGVCR CPU usage is typically in the 5% to 7% range while recording the NCSA Lobby.

I'm giving a talk about AGVCR in the AG Townhall tomorrow, if you want to attend. https://agschedule.ncsa.uiuc.edu/meetingdetails.asp?MID=2506 Derek David Bowler wrote: > We are planning a musical performance linking multiple > locations and have the following question: What are the > logistics/considerations for recording a 'performance'/event on the > Grid so it can be played back as a Grid event? > > I wonder if you might be kind enough to provide an answer that would > help us to know how realistic a proposition this is and detail such as > what format/s are normally used? > > > Regards, > > David Bowler > The University of Sheffield > Corporate Information & Computing Services > Computer Centre > Hounsfield Road > Sheffield > S3 7RF > UK > > E-Mail d.bow...@sheffield.ac.uk > Tel: (0114) 222 3087 > > > -- Derek Piper - dcpi...@indiana.edu - (812) 856 0111 IRI 323, School of Informatics Indiana University, Bloomington, Indiana
