MPEG 4 Web Streaming / Media Encoding / Internet Web Video / VOD / Video Podcasting

Q. What is Web Streaming?

Allows the user to begin viewing video clips stored on our server, without first downloading the entire file. After a brief period of initializing and buffering, the file will begin to stream - or play - in real time.

Your picture quality will be determined by your available bandwidth (download speed) and computer processor speed. Users with older processors and slower modem connections will have more dropped frames and pixelization.

Of course, for video to have an impact, it needs to reach an audience. One way to accomplish this is through the Web. Excelsior Film & Video is a leader in the vision and application of web streaming video and digital video for business applications.

Web streaming involves recording video files in advance, fully edited and approved by the client, then encoding them to web-ready formats and uploading to video servers for release on a web site.

Equipped with reliable high-speed internet connections and capable desktop PCs, almost all businesses today can benefit from smart application of web streaming video technologies
