Abstract

From the Publisher:For broadcasters, web developers, and project managers implementing streaming media systems, David Austerbery shows how to deploy the technology on your site, from video and audio capture through to the consumer's media player. The book first deals with Internet basics and gives a thorough coverage of telecommunications networks and the last mile to the home. Video and audio formats are covered, as well as compression standards including MPEG-4 and the leading proprietary architectures. The book then guides you through the streaming process showing in-depth how to encode audio and video. The deployment of media servers, live webcasting and how a stream is displayed on the consumer's media player are also covered. A final section on associated technologies illustrates how you can protect your revenue sources with digital rights management systems, looks at various forms of content delivery, offers guidance on how to monetize your content with ad insertion, and provides examples of successful streaming applications.
