    What video compression to use for high quality streaming video?

    Hi guys, wondering what video formats / compression methods you use to get the best quality (and decent quality/speed ratio) for streaming video? Quicktime, WMV, Flash? Any specific compression software that gets great results?

    Thanks a lot for any input, I really appreciate it

                      You want tube sites to die off? Well step 1 is keeping content IN the members areas. There is a way to do this, and we do it. Stopping tube sites isn't done by keeping information important to our industry secret.

                              Yes but since it isnt supported via the adobe flash player yet its not much use for paysites without pissing people off lol.

                                  It's a damn shame that you can't even do a realtime transcode of x264 reliably, yet.

                                          can the viewer scrub the timeline forward/reverse with this?

                                          i'm wanting to offer that as well

                                                          Thanks for input! I have been using flash compressed videos but still trying to tweak the settings to get the best results. I haven't tried mp4 w/ h264 before, I'll let you know how it comes out. Thanks again.
