Difference between progressive download and streaming online videos - 0 views

  • Streaming video requires access to a streaming media server.
  • When a video streams, it is being sent via UDP protocol to a player on the end users compter. The user will have the ability to fast forward or rewind the video.
  • video isn't being downloaded to the end users computer so it is less likely that the content will be stolen

  • Most web hosting providers or Content Delivery Networks (CDN) will have streaming media servers available to use

    The biggest disadvantage of streaming over progressive download is if the user watches the same video over and over you will pay for the delivery of it each time. Videos are also streamed at what ever bit rate they are encoded at. Keep this in mind when creating HD quality video. 8Mbps video may sound and look great, but most homes can't sustain an 8Mbps connection. If you have really high bit rate video, consider delivering via HTTP. Most web hosting providers or Content Delivery Networks (CDN) will have streaming media servers available to use. Historically, Flash video was more expensive to deliver than other forms. Recently prices have compressed and you will find that it costs about the same to deliver Flash or Windows Media files. In the past I would have said if your video is more than 10 minutes in length deliver it via Stream and less do progressive. Since prices

FT.com / UK - British TV groups weigh up web video delivery - 0 views

  • Some analysts question whether VoD can be as profitable as broadcast TV. The dual costs of piping internet video into the home and licensing content from producers - both paid out on a per-view basis - "may call into question the level of profits that can be made in the long term" from VoD, says David Cockram of Oliver & Ohlbaum, a media consultancy. "More people are taking more of the pie."
  • Broadcasters already have to pay companies providing "content delivery networks" to ensure their on-demand programming reaches viewers in good quality and without loading-time delays mid-video. Every time a programme is viewed online through their VoD services, the BBC, ITV, Channel 4 and other broadcasters pay a CDN provider such as Akamai, Level 3 or, soon, BT.
  • Today, one half-hour programme costs between 2p and 5p to stream through a CDN every time it is viewed. That may not sound much, but with the BBC iPlayer serving up almost 60m TV shows in November, a broadcaster's CDN costs could already exceed £1m a month.
