FVS318N ensuring adequate bandwidth for streaming encoder
Well, I streamed our Sunday service this morning. It should have been in 720p HD, but apparently the encoder automatically dropped down the resolution because of poor bandwidth. I'm running the enc...

Well, all I can say is Whew!!! I had a flawless stream this morning at church. The encoder was provided with the proper constant bandwidth to ensure an HD broadcast. Looks like the things I did that I mentioned in the previous post did the trick! By the way, I also changed the Outbound and Inbound Minimum bandwidth in the Bandwidth Profile to 5000 Kbps. The streaming encoder I'm using is Livestream.com's Broadcaster Pro. I'm putting some large stick-on feet on the bottom of it to ensure there is adequate space under it for ventalation, as it gets hot on the top and bottom. And, we will keep it away from heat sources. I'm considering this problem solved, and I thank DaneA and JohnRo for their assistance.

I forgot to mention that the streaming encoder needs 5 Mb of bandwidth. Our contracted downstream speed is 50 Mb, and our upstream speed is 10 Mb.
