Re: Degredation of signal when rebroadcasting

You shouldn't need to sit in front of it--that's what Remote Desktop is for.

Another thing that can impact performance is fragmented packets. You really
need to sniff the network and find out what's going on (Wireshark works.)

Mike,

Thanks for your reply. Unfortunately the server is in India so we are a bit
constrained on actually sitting infront of it. However the users locally have
said that playing the stream on the server is fine and getting a desktop to
access the London server plays fine as well. broadcasting locally works as
well. It just seems to be something to do with the server taking the stream
and pushing it back out again. We are going to try another server, but just
incase there is something obvious we are missing.

Thanks

Vish

I've done this without problems. Are you sure you aren't experiencing a
bandwidth constraint or extreme network latency? As I recall, anything over
about 400ms starts to impact the stream.

Hi,

We are having a problem rebroadcasting a stream. IT starts off on one media
server and is unicasted to another one, which then broadcasts it out.

From testing we have seen that you can see the stream perfectly on the
second server but wehn you restream it, the signal degrades and the video
starts to freeze and jump.

If we stream a video from the second server out, it is fine on the clients.
IS there anything that we can do to help with the processing of the stream?

Thanks in advance
