does Webmaster Media Maker stream audio and video?
Webmaster Media Maker integrates Generator Software
and Web Players into one powerful program that installs
quickly and operates just like any other Windows software.

required to stream audio and video. These files are
then uploaded to your webserver. Top |
Will
I need a streaming server?
No, you will not need a Streaming Server. Top |
What
is the technology being used by Webmaster Media Maker
to stream audio and video?
Webmaster Media Maker uses a technology called "Progressive
Download".
When the video is played, the video file is downloaded
to the client's computer (hard drive) before playback.
This file is served from a normal web server through
an HTTP request just like a normal web page or any other
downloadable document.
Unlike traditional download-and-play methods of video
delivery however, the file starts playing before it
has completely downloaded. Top |
Are
the audio or video files cached to the user's browser?
Yes. Like all other browsing elements like graphics,
animations the audio and video files are cached to the
user's browser. Top |
Does
the user need to download any software to listen to
the audio and view the videos?
No. Apart from the Flash Pluggin (the same pluggin that
is required to view flash animations on a web page)
no other software is required. Top |

additional hardware do I need to use Webmaster Media
Maker?
Absolutely nothing! Webmaster Media Maker runs on any

may need a FTP software like SmartFTP or CuteFTP. Top |

big the file sizes can be for both audio and video?
