Bandwidth requirements for streaming?
If we had a Cablecast SX-VOD and only had a bonded T1 (T2). Would that be enough outgoing bandwidth to satisfy our needs? Does anybody have a SX-VOD? What's the size of your pipe? And how satisfied are you with your streaming output?

Inappropriate?Unfortunately, I'm not sure about bandwidth requirements but I've posted some of the sites of our existing customers with streaming or VOD servers. I believe most sites have contact information to get a hold of the station.
Puget Sound Access: http://207.101.236.30:5700/Cablecast/...
City of Fort Meyers: http://www.cityftmyers.com/vod (Site seemed to be down at time of posting)
City of Coral Springs: http://www.coralsprings.org/CityTV25/
Pittsfield Community TV: http://www.pittsfieldtv.org/ (Site seemed to be down at time of posting)
I’m hoping this information helps.

Inappropriate?We use Road Runner Business Class, which gives us 2 Mb up, over a cable modem. It seems to work for most of what we do (VOD and web streams for three channels), but we have found that in times of high demand, that's just not enough for lots of simultaneous clients. For example, we produced a Softball World Series that was held in Pittsfield this year, and we had hits from all over the country. The people who were able to connect were thrilled... but we had many more people who wanted to get in.
Here is a link to our public site for Pittsfield ETV, where you can jump over to the stream or click 'view' on a show to see the VOD.

Change the number at the end of that link to '1' or '3 to change channels.
