Video Encoding & Bandwidth Requirements:
To encode a video so that it will stream at this speed, an extremely high degree of compression is applied to both the video and audio tracks. This process eliminates portions of the audio and video data which is why most videos you see may not appear or sound as clear as you'd like.
Artistic Website Creations recommends that you prepare alternate video clips which are of higher video and audio quality which are specifically meant for transmission to visitors who are connecting to your web site at higher speeds.
When video encoding is prepared for higher speed connections, less compression is used and a smaller amount of audio and video data is lost. As a result, these alternate video files are larger in size and require the faster connection speed to be seen as streaming video.
For example, a user who is connected to the Internet using a high speed cable modem or DSL connection can watch any streaming video clip which has been encoded for transmission at their connection speed or lower. However, a user who is connected to the Internet using a 56k modem who attempts to view a streaming video clip which has been specifically digitized and encoded for transmission to cable modem users will receive very choppy video which plays for a second or two and then pauses for several seconds until more video data is transferred to their PC.
Already there are a substantial number of users who connect to the Internet using high speed bandwidth alternatives such as ISDN modems, DSL, dedicated T-1 access, cable modems or through their company's network. The growth of these high-speed connection alternatives has already eclipsed standard 28.8 and 56K modem connections.
If you'd like current and future visitors to your web site who are connected to the Internet at higher speeds to be able to see higher quality video, we can specifically encode additional video clips which are meant for transmission and viewing at alternate speeds. In most cases, you will usually want your basic streaming video clip encoded for transmission to standard 28.8 or 56K modem users. There is a small fee per video clip for encoding alternate higher speed clips.
