My company has been using an online video service for certain shows on our =
local access channel, to stream them live over the internet and make them a=
vailable as video on demand. This is stuff like city and county meetings, p=
arades, that sort of thing.
We're getting complaints because the ads had become very intrusive and anno=
ying (budwiser swimsuit girls dancing across the screen in the middle of wa=
tching the Alderman meeting, for example). They are balking at the yearly '=
subscription' cost, especially as we don't even come close to needed the am=
ount of bandwidth/storage that provides.
So I've been asked to look into setting up something locally (we have more =
than enough bandwidth to support what little use we're getting, with plenty=
of room to grow), but I really don't know where to start. So I'm looking f=
or some help, perhaps experience with products, or someone who could consul=
t with us on this. Also, my content creator needs an easy path to get the c=
ontent online. He does his editing with a computer but trying to get him to=
convert formats and such is somewhat difficult.
