Hello,

if the Media Server records from a client's webcam, what uploading bitrate should the the clients have for 640x480, 15 fps, good quality video(small motion: human face, I would like to record the eyes movement). What codec is used for recording? (h264? or vp6) Or I can choose? Should be 768kbit/s without audio  enough?

Thanks,

Peter

    What client are you using to publish your video?

    client: normal windows xp/vista computer, flash player 10 installed and the computer has a webcam(640x480,15 fps). The Media Server records live stream from the clients webcam. The question is what type of Internet connection is needed on the client computer? The Media Server is irrelevant, it has unlimited bandwidth.

    What I meant was, what publishing client are you using? Flashplayer, Flash Media Encoder, or another publishing client?

    If you're using the flashplayer as the client, your only codec option is Sorenson Spark (an H.263 mutant), which will require greater bitrates to acheive the same quality vs. VP6 or H.264. If you want H.264 or VP6 video, you'll need to use something other than the flashplayer.
