A Higher Call Men's Conference

Speed Test
​
Our streaming solution uses adaptive or multi-bit rate streaming. The video player utilizes three different bit rates in order to cater to a greater number of users. In turn, each site is served with the best quality video allowed by the speed of their connection. The video player has a bandwidth detection feature. When the player first loads, it will test the bandwidth available and then serve the highest bit rate video depending upon this test. We suggest a minimum broadband download speed of 3Mbs to stream the conference in HD.
No Regrets Live Streaming bitrates:
HD Quality:            1080p – 3-5Mbs
High Quality:         486p – 1-2Mbs
Medium Quality:   432p – 646Kbs

Please TEST your download Internet connection bandwidth at www.speedtest.net.
       a. Test the connection speed from the PC and location you will be streaming the conference from.
       b. Go to: http://www.speedtest.net/
       c. Click “Begin Test”
       d. Your results will need to show a download speed of at least 3Mbs to stream the conference in HD successfully.


Instructions for Live Streaming Event Testing
  • Run the test from the PC/MAC you will be streaming the conference from.
  • Click Play on the video player at the top of this page.
  • Within a few seconds, the player will determine the best bitrate (quality) to stream to your PC/MAC based on bandwidth available. If you have at least a 3Mbs download speed the system will connect you at the HD quality.
  • Click on the full screen icon located next to the menu button at the bottom of the player.  This will put the video in full screen mode.
  • You can manually select a lower quality setting if the player is having issues connecting at the HD level.
  • Please run the test for at least 10 minutes to make sure you get a consistent high quality streaming experience.
  • Test the same setup you will use on the conference day: hook-up your streaming PC to the projectors and feed the PC audio to your audio mixer.

Streaming Tips
  • Dedicated or semi-dedicated bandwidth is important for the highest-quality streaming performance.
  • Wired Internet connectivity is strongly recommended as it tends to be more stable than wireless.
  • Only run one streaming PC/MAC at your site! Multiple computers streaming may degrade the quality of the primary stream.
