    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Caraboolee -- thank you for your interest -- we are in the process of mounting the structure, but since we lost the person who did this for us, I am waiting for the next person, so this might take a couple of months still. :)

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thank you B.J. for the lengthy reply, appreciated. Following your comment -- you are right that this thread is covering a lot of issues that belong to my customized setup, and is probably somewhat "bloated" at this stage. It did start by asking questions on multiple DVB-S cards. I currently do...

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thank you zamar23 for the informative reply. We will check into this, although, chances are that this is not really optimized for the Flash Media Live Encoder. However it is worth a check. My initial complaint for the slow PC is because we were using legacy PCs with a 2.4 Ghz processor (memory...

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thanks Zamar23 for your input. Actually the Flash Live Media Encoder is really designed to work with live video input (your webcam or professional cameras) as a source. This "live input" can be a TV signal "imported" through a TV-in Card, and I would have hoped it could also be a TV signal...

    Hello Sadoun, nice wintery picture there :) Actually we are streaming our own family of channels (we are a non-profit ministry). We are currently not on satellite in the Americas at this time (we've been out for a couple of months), but will be back shortly, but as I said, most likely using a...

    Hi caraboolee, thank you for your input. We are most likely moving to DVB-S2 technology. And currently are waiting for this decision to be made. Once this is done, we will proceed to testing this. I will keep everyone posted of progress.

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thank you Zamar23 for your reply. We did run some tests with our machines and at least one encoder per machine was doing fine. We have ordered one DVB-S card to see how things will do. Hopefully fine. I will keep the thread updated to see what happens. :)

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thanks RtpiFan for the confirmation on the dvb cards. And we will not be receiving HD anyways. Thank you for the other points as well. We are in a testing phase, so any input will save money and time in the future. I was aware of the router's issue (with 24/7 continued streaming problems), but...

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thank you RtpiFan for your input, that adds a couple more important bits of information. We are currently testing with the PCs, and yes we plan to stream H.264 at 20 Fps. In the past I have had problems with the Flash Media Live Encoder 3, I am not sure how it manages memory, but I guess...

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Thank you guys for your answers. To Anole: yes we will be receiving the signal, encode it in flash and send it to a stream server. We'll do this for 6 signals (5 TVs / 1 radio), and as it looks like, I'll probably use 6 PCs to do this... To Pendragon: I'd say, we are definitely not planning...

    multiple DVB-S Cards PC resources usage

    Hi all this is my first post (yeih!) :) We are setting a streaming center in Tennessee and will be streaming some 6 FTA channels. For these we are thinking of getting some 6 PCI DVB-S cards. We are non-profit, so we try to keep our costs to the minimum. I have a couple of questions and I am...
