live Event Streaming

Live streaming is where a live event is broadcast in real time on the internet. At its simplest a home PC with a webcam and a modest ADSL connection can produce a webcast. At the other extreme major music or sporting events can be watched by thousands within their browsers.

The basic process is similar for all, other than in scale:

  1. Images and/or sound are captured with appropriate equipment. Anything from a single digital camcorder to multiple cameras and mixing desks.
  2. The output from this equipment is fed into a PC using appropriate interface hardware.
  3. Encoding software on the PC turns that input into a format suitable for live streaming. Typically this would be Flash Live Media Encoder, RealProducer for Real Video and Audio format or Windows Media Encoder for Windows Media format. Quicktime is possible but not used much.
  4. The encoded output is then transmitted via the PC's internet connection to our streaming servers. NB: the higher the speed of this internet connection, the higher the quality of the images we can broadcast.
  5. This single stream is received by our streaming servers and re-broadcast, in real time, to multiple viewers via a website link.

The cost is determined by 4 factors:

  1. The duration of the event
  2. The quality required for the broadcast
  3. The number of viewers
  4. Who provides the production services (cameras, mixing desks, camera operators) - you or us.
