You're sure that's your real external IP ?
How have you established the IP ?

Can you let me know what bandwidth do you have available (I need to
know this for my own application ;-) How many streams do you typically
and reliably send / how many listeners do you usually have at a time ?

OK well let's start at the bottom : You need to remove the trailing
slash on the SRC param down in there. It'll confuse the players - the
encoder doesn't have a 'directory' and that's what you're implying to
the players which are connecting. It might not be the cause but it
won't help at all ;-)
The second thing is that your OBJECT tag actually has no URL to point
to. So the only people who will be able to see the stream are people
using browsers other than IE (which will use the EMBED tag, that would
otherwise pick up the SRC). IE only uses the OBJECT tag so lets
rewrite that to use this sort of framework (adapt this to your code)
<object id="mediaplayer"
classid="clsid:6bf52a52-394a-11d3-b153-00c04f79faa6"
type="application/x-oleobject">
<param name="url" value="http://80.57.75.50:10000" />
<param name="autostart" value="0" />
<param name="showcontrols" value="1" />
<param name="uimode" value="mini" />
.
.
.
<embed ..... ></embed>
</object>
Here we're also using the classID for the more recent media player
(versions 7 and later) so there's more functionality available as
well.
NB the dots are just to indicate you can add a lot of other param tags
in there too - the available params for the embedded player are listed
here :
