What did you use to encode the Nickleback stream? It's almost as good as mp4 quality!

Post a clip worth actually listening to and I'll check.....

Just kidding.
Those are just 2 of my LEAST favorite bands....

Nickelback is excellent streaming quality

I tried the Creed stream and got an Unable to establish connection to server error.

Yeah.. I am rebooting the server to open up a second 100 Mbit port.. should be back up in a few.

Tried Shrek and got a "could not handle request in a timely manner error."

**Smegma** · 07-24-2002, 10:17 AM

It's back up.. I opened up another 100Mbits to make sure I had enough head room.

**Captain P** · 07-24-2002, 10:20 AM

All loaded pretty quick...

Shrek is the best quality and Creed is the worst. It was real jittery for me... Nickelback was much better but Shrek looked like it was a direct rip.

**Smegma** · 07-24-2002, 11:35 AM

Thanks for the feedback!

**Penrod** · 07-24-2002, 11:47 AM

Just checked them again. Looked nice and smooth to me. Loaded fast. Audio on Shrek was very nice. Came thru in surround on my system.

**h0st** · 07-24-2002, 12:32 PM

Looking goood

**Smegma** · 07-24-2002, 12:33 PM

Can you folks try looking at the same video in full-screen and let me know how it looks? What's your resolution?

**yys** · 07-24-2002, 12:50 PM

Ok, I tried them out in full screen mode and I will preface this by saying that I had noticed some lag on my connection earlier in the day. The Nickleback one was good but it had a bit of static in the sound and it froze once on me. The Shrek one was an awesome encoding job and the video and sound were coming through great but it froze on me about halfway through and then just skipped from one frame to another for the rest of the video even though I tried pausing it and then staring it again. The Creed one had worse video then the nickleback video with lots of pixelization and the sound was choppy. Hope that helps you out a bit.

**Smegma** · 07-24-2002, 01:08 PM

Thanks!

**RW316** · 07-24-2002, 02:40 PM

Sounds great

**Brad Mitchell** · 07-24-2002, 02:57 PM

Looks like your server is overloaded or something...

**Naughty** · 07-24-2002, 04:25 PM

Sound is perfect, picture quality razor sharp, but streaming is not that good, although I am on DSL, I think my PC cannot keep up (224 mb RAM though)
