Subject: Re: Quality video at 20kbps???
Well not really a great solution, but what I am going to do is
surestream at near the average bandwidth I get from the site. For
instance, with my 56k, I normally average a 26k stream rate. Therefore
I will encode surestream at 24k, setting the audio for 5k, with the
remaining 19k for video. At this rate, its about the best that I can
do now. I am using real producer 7 plus, and it allows me to have
greater control of the encode settings. Note that I change the default
20k video setting for 28k users to 24k. When its surestreamed, I get
the following stream rates:
SureStream Audio Codecs:
5 Kbps Voice (RealAudio 5.0) 8000 Khz
5 Kbps Voice (RealAudio 5.0) 8000 Khz - Backwards
Compatibility Stream
Stream: 1 video/x-pn-multirate-realvideo logical stream
MIME type: video/x-pn-realvideo
Max Stream Bit Rate: 19.0 Kbps
Dimensions: 192x144
Encoded Frame Rate: 15.0 fps
SureStream Video Codecs:
19.0 Kbps (RealVideo G2)
13.0 Kbps (RealVideo G2)
9.4 Kbps (RealVideo G2)
19.0 Kbps (RealVideo G2) - for HTTP streaming
Stream Pairings
0.0 - 18.0 Kbps
Stream0Bandwidth = 5.0 Kbps
Stream1Bandwidth = 9.4 Kbps
18.0 - 24.0 Kbps
Stream0Bandwidth = 5.0 Kbps
Stream1Bandwidth = 13.0 Kbps
24.0 and above
Stream0Bandwidth = 5.0 Kbps
Stream1Bandwidth = 19.0 Kbps
With this setting, 28k users will normally get the 18kbps file,
which isnt too much different than the default 20k rate and should
handle lag better for 28k users. Users with faster connections
will get the 24k rate. Hope this helps the ppl who emailed me.
