The hardware, software and systems selected for our streaming video infrastructure were designed to do one thing well, stream video. Your current website hosting account is not providing you with a professional streaming video implementation. Our streaming video accounts co-exist with any website hosting account. Our streaming video accounts allow you to stream your video in real time. You have no progress bars, almost instant startup, and can jump to any point in the video you want at anytime. Our systems allow you to stream video using RTSP-UDP/streaming, RTSP-TCP/streaming, HTTP-TCP/streaming and HTTP-TCP/progressive download. Your existing web account will only allow HTTP-TCP/Progressive download, which is usually the worst video distribution approach. There are many other performance and service related advantages when using our streaming video accounts.
- Our staff knows streaming video, so take advantage of our experience! Our streaming accounts come with access to our staff. Email your questions and account number when you have streaming related questions and we will help you.
- With our streaming accounts you can purchase our turnkey full length event streaming service for as little as £30 (with Business level streaming account). Our full length event service allows you to put multi-hour events on the Net , for your clients, without lifting a finger! It is a powerful service for your clients and your business.
- Our streaming accounts allow you to randomly seek to any position in your video immediately. This is not possible if you use your web hosting account to show video.
- Our streaming accounts include reports of your video usage. Our reports include special "streaming" related data columns that your web host can't provide (because they don't use a real streaming server).
- Web hosts often claim to support streaming video, but they are just serving your video from their web servers! This is not "streaming" but rather what we call "progressive download". When using our streaming video accounts, you will never see the progress bar in your video player because we are offer TRUE streaming video!
- In order to accomplish"TRUE STREAMING", your video will be transmitted via our Windows Media and QuickTime streaming servers, not a web server that only supports "progressive download"!
- We manage our streaming systems separate from our web servers. Aspects of performance, capacity and quality of service are based on the fact that we are operating streaming video infrastructure. Streaming video often requires hundreds of times the resources required by website traffic, and should be managed accordingly to avoid poor performance.
- Our backbone network uses TIER 1 REDUNDANT BGP bandwidth. A simple analogy is that WebHost Wales Streaming Servers use the "fast" lane of the Internet. It is extremely important that you are using a premium quality network when streaming video.
- Our streaming accounts are amongst the lowest priced in our industry and come with large allowances of storage and bandwidth. Storing video on our accounts will reduce the burden on your web account.
