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

    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.

  • allows for optimal playback quality in the fullscreen and WiFi/3G scenarios
  • if the connection speed drops below the minimum bandwidth needed for the video, playback will be continuously interrupted.
  • has specific server and protocol requirements, which makes it less accessible and adds significant complexity and cost
  • Adaptive HTTP Streaming is a fairly new streaming format
  • Adaptive HTTP Streaming works by storing your videos on the server in small fragment
  • daptive HTTP Streaming leverages standard webservers, it is supported by webhosters and CDNs alike.
  • none of the Adaptive HTTP Streaming implementations work with regular MP4 files.
  • Adaptive HTTP Streaming will likely become the single video streaming method over time
  • live streaming is not possible,
  • o data is downloaded in advance and data a user has seen is immediately discarded.
