It all starts with a Horizon East video production illustrating your product or service.
Your video can then be compressed into a file for streaming on your website.
There are three methods: True Streaming, HTTP Streaming, and Progressive Downloading.
TRUE STREAMING requires a streaming server using this method the end user can start watching the file as it begins downloading. In effect the the file is sent to the user in a constant stream and the user watches it as it arrives.
HTTP STREAMING means hyper text transfer protocl. This is the same protocol used to deliver web pages. For this reason it is easy to set up and use on almost any website, without requiring additional software or special hosting plans.
PROGRESSIVE DOWNLOADING is a method where the video clip is downloaded but begins playing as soon as a portion of the file has been recieved. This simulates true streaming but does not have all of the advantages.
Depending on your situation and needs, our programmers will recommend the appropriate streaming method for your application. We will then compress your video program and provide you with the appropriate file format for streaming.
