Video compression for remote access
« on: May 17, 2017, 08:40:00 am »

Hi there
I am looking for suitable options coupling this problem. When I stream video from outside home I can watch smoothly standard definition files. As soon as I try hi-rez movies (from 720p onward) JRiver is buffering from time to time. I have an upstream connection of 9-10 Mbps. Obviopusly it is not sufficient
I then would like to force JRiver to compress high bitrate video to accomodete to the lower bandwidth
Is Options->Media network->Client Options->Video Conversion Ok for this? if yes, which (480p I think its OK) coding better fits with the purpose?
Thanks much

9-10mbps should be enough bandwidth for X264@720p. Maybe it's your server's processor which isn't able to encode HD in real time?

It is an i5 with 8MB RAM so this may be possible
Thanks

What i5?  I think they are on the 7th generation of Intel Core series processors.  If it is a later generation (Haswell or later), and a decent speed, I think it should handle trans-coding just fine.  It may work hard, but it should handle it.
