RE: streaming live shows



Software, bandwidth, and infrastructure appear to be the key. See what
www.TeVeo.com has to offer. I have an Intel PC camera and some video
broadcasting software that came with the camera, is allowing me to
stream for free to TeVeo's server. Between now and the time I received
your email, I installed the software and I'm streaming live to this web
site:

I just pointed the camera at my TV.  Let me know how bad it is...time
lag, that is. There is no sound on this one. I'd play guitar for you,
but I have to jump in the shower to make it to a party. I'll be back in
15 min....

Subject: streaming live shows


I'm currently negotiating with a place regarding a possible looping live
show. This place has a DSL internet access (don't have information about
bandwith yet).

I'd like to ask you whether any of you has experience with streaming
live shows on the internet. From what I understand, you basically need
two things
(technically):

a) a stream source, which encodes the received audio (e.g. from an audio
input on the computer) and sends it out to a server. Bandwith
requirement: what it takes to transmit the stream. Example: SimpleCast
b) a stream server, which receives the audio stream from the source (a)
and sends it to the audients. Bandwith requirement: the stream times the
audients. Example Icecast.
c) possible relay servers, which take a stream from a server (b) and
send it out to the audients.

Specifically, I'd like to know whether you know of any affordable (read:
free si possible :-) services doing the (b) part? Also, any hints
regarding the software for (a) would be appreciated (windows platform).

Thanks,

        Rainer
