Importance of Processor Speed on Originating Computer

I'm running a Connect Pro session on a older PC with a low processor speed. Everything seems to be working fine but I'm concerned that the low speed could affect the quality of my video. Can anyone offer advice on this? Is there a minimum system standard for maximizing video quality?

I also have a computer but I try to install SSD on my personal computer which is good for my work. And it will increase the pc speed. So I have found some information from a facebook page. But I want to know more.

Video is streamed from the Adobe Connect server and not the host. The server has control of the streaming not the host machine. So when you upload a video the server takes it and runs with it irregardless of your machine.

So if our participants are seeing significant video artifacts and

occasional audio dropouts, are you saying that the problem is NOT with the

system hosting the event and generating the audio/video? If so, where is

the most likely source of the problem? Could we be bumping up against some

bandwidth threshold with Adobe that causes the video quality to degrade?

Yes, your network has to have the ability to handle the load of the meeting. Any kind of bandwidth contention at the local level or at the ISP will affect any web conference meeting regardless of vendor.

How far away are you from the server? If you are in a different country than the Connect server the long distance can cause network latency. It's best to use a server located on your continent. It's best to have a network that is designed properly and scaled to handle web conferencing. It's all a matter of bandwidth, firewalls, QoS, ISP quality, etc.
