Deathmineral Posted August 1, 2010 Posted August 1, 2010 "twas super fun. Also, I did that calculator, and it recommended something like 3mb/s upload for streaming an 800x 450 signal, which wouldn't be terrible quality. I can usually get around 4.5-6Mbp/s on speedtests. I'll have to wait until I can figure out a second monitor to do movie nights however : / I wouldn't put too much thought into that calculator, I just used to calculate what I should be have for an upload speed and it recommended 1372 kbps, however I was only casting at 746 kbps total last night and it did pretty good aside from really busy parts. However if you do have the speed to reach that recommended area then I don't see any reason to not stream at that speed, other than some people having limits of the amount of bandwith they can use per month. Maybe I could try hosting Anime nights too (for those who're interested), I like discoverin new good anime with friends. I think my connection would be fine for anime quality Sounds like fun, I'm definitely up for watching some anime, I thought about streaming some myself but I figured most here would prefer real movies. Anyway, for those of you looking to stream stuff as well, feel free to contact me on steam or on this thread and whenever you're ready to do it I can add you to the list.

Deathmineral Posted August 2, 2010 Posted August 2, 2010 (edited) Just to show that you don't need a fantastic connection for this kind of thing. The first is what I was using while casting last night, the second is what I have when speed test is the only internet activity. Just to show that you don't have to worry too much about other internet activity while casting, though I imagine the cast does better when it is the only activity.
