Hello People,<div><br></div><div>It looks like we're currently streaming our talks at approx 160kbps. This is with full resolution but only 5fps and horrible audio at 9600kpbs and reduced quality at that.</div><div><br>
</div><div>I think we should be aiming for around 500kpbs and drastically improve the audio then use whatever else to improve the video.</div><div><br></div><div>Pros are significantly improved stream.</div><div><br></div>
<div>Cons are: 1) uplink needs to be able to send 500kpbs reliably 2) user needs at least 500kpbs download.</div><div><br></div><div>I think con (2) isn't really relevant since you already have to be on ADSL to watch the current stream - it'd only be an issue with ADSL1 users with crappy connections.</div>
<div><br></div><div>The load on plugav1-mix is low enough it doesn't matter what we go with.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div>Separately, if there is a demand for very log bitrate streams we can do that too in addition to the higher bitrate stream.</div>
