I have written a little tutorial/article regarding streaming and how to encode videos for websites, maybe the one or other think it would be helpfull, if so I am happy to help you :)

Videos are probably one of the most important, but also complicated, services of an adult web site today. There are still many difficulties and problems how to handle videos over the net, and it will be close to impossible to serve videos to 100% of your customers without any problems. But, we can help you to improve your services for your customers and set up a video solution which will fit all yours and your customer needs.

Streaming media is a technology that enables you to include audio, video and other multimedia elements into your websites in a more seamless and efficient way than was possible in the past. Visitors to your website will be able to listen to or view media files as they are downloaded in real time. Media typically consist of audio only, video with audio or any combination of audio, illustrated audio, video, synchronized graphics or animation.

Videos are probably the most important content for today's adult services and sites. More and more customers are accessing the internet with broadband connections and the quality of the video codecs has increased during the last Years as the file sizes of the encoded videos have decreased.

Seriously darling.... THANK YOU!

I'm helping a friend provide a Flash stream of her documentary online (and am also having her site completely revamped with a video interface) and while I know all sorts of things about all sorts of things I very much doubt I know all there is to know about streaming video!

I'll be making an awful lot of noise about the new site when it's launched because it's very powerful but here's the current site incase you're curious: http://www.searchingforangelashelton.com/

THANKS! :)
