Im looking for a solution that will count and register the number of devices a users is access streams on. This would be part of a DRM solution which bring me to question two.

Can anyone point me to a solution that allows MS Playready DRM to be used on HLS stream?

In the tech specs it states QuickTime compatible audio/video capture devices.

With what seems like the EOL of QuickTime and the move to AVFoundation frameworks, it seems that Adobe FMLE for Mac is being left behind. Newer capture device drivers may be moving away from QuickTime.

There can be significant impact on Mac developers who may want to create compatible input.

I'd love to know if Adobe is working on compatibility with the new frameworks. Any thoughts, speculation, confirmation?

Even with a really good H.264 High Profile VBR encoder, 1 Mbps is typically going to look better at 480p than at 720p.

These were recorded at a live event and the video person transferred them onto an external hard drive. The raw video was about 200 GB for about 2 1/2 hours of air time. I had to compress them to a lower resolution AVI format to fit a 4.7GB DVD. What’s your suggestion?

Why are you using AVI? If you need deep backwards compatibility, making a straight up DVD with MPEG-2 would be better.

If you're trying to pack a lot of content on a single disc, a .mp4 or .wmv file would offer better compression and compatibility than AVI. MPEG-2 would be 720x480, but you could do HD on a DVD-5 with WMV or MP4. WMV is more compatible in the enterprise (lots of Windows XP machines still out there), while MP4 works out of the box on Win 7+8, most consumer Windows systems, and all Macs.

For 2.5 hours on DVD-5, you'd want to target about 4100 Kbps.

I want to use H264 compression on an embed environment, in a c++ program. But i have no idea how to use x264 library. I mean, I have to include x264 files (like x264.h and x264.c) to my project, and then i can use all x264 encoding function ? Or does it work with a special software, or something else ?
This is really not clear in my head, how it works and how to use it... :s

A number of the turn-key providers are using the likes of Windows Media Services as the back-end anyway. They are generally just wrapping it up with some fancy front-end user interface and content management tools.

Just how different are they? How easily can someone involved in satellite transmissions pick up webcasting and vise versa?

I've seen some soundcard drivers struggle when playing back mono audio in encoded content.

For those situations, the work-around is sometimes to consider encoding it as stereo, even if the left and right channels are the same.

But for some reason, on jut two machines I get no audio. I have tried a bunch of proposed solutions:

reinstalled Flash players, plugins
repaired Windows Media Player
Ran the online media Fix It Tool
Disabled WMP service and restarted it

Its driving me nuts ;^) Must be something unique to these videos.
