  Webcasting 101 – where do I start?

  Posted by Brian Pitt on November 28, 2006 at 9:02 pm

  Hola! I am about to enter the mysterious world of webcasting. I work for an “in-house” production department for a semi-large corporation, and up to this point, we have done just about everything with the exception of video on the web.

  Anyway, I was just wanting somebody to point me in the right direction. any books, websites, anything that would start me out in the right direction would be appreciated. thanks!!!

  First thing I would do is as the web administrator and host provider your using to tell you which formats are supported by their servers. Once you know the format, such as, Flash, Real, WindowsMedia, etc. that will point you in the direction to start looking at the ways to create, and encode for that format.

  Things to know:

  Difference between Streaming video and progressive downloads.
  Difference between CODEC and File Format.
  Ways to embed streaming or progressive players on a webpage.

  The list goes on and on.

  Look me up if you need more help, alancontino@yahoo.com
