We are testing some simple low bandwidth video and audio broadcasting using real server and client softwares.
So, for quick check and simplicity, we were plunking along TESTING on an 3.2GHz XP box and I noticed frames were getting dropped on the broadcast just for resizing a window on the screen during the session.
Talk about totally lame...
I know this can be a big deal and start conflicting opinions yet I need some experienced perspective please?
Can anyone chime in on what they use or what they would buy if they were going to have a workstation box for development that could double as test server and have good high speed storage and excellent video and audio etc etc
Im thinking of a box that does audio and video development, can easily handle virtualization, and of course do general work apps plus setting up various server processes for testing whether intranet or internet etc etc
It can be premade like specific dell or hp (please list component choices for clarity)
OR
A hand built box with specific list of components that
Now, I know this has been done in magazines with great expense, and even with lower expense, yet I trust the list more than a magazine that wants to sell me advertising etc
Thanks in advance
