Best, Cheapest Video Encoder?

SergeantJoe · 05-13-2009, 03:16 PM

Hey Guys,

I'm looking to host a few streaming videos on my site. What's the easiest, cheapest program that easily allows me to do this? Do I even need a specific program?

I'm not the most tech-savvy guy in the world, so I don't know too much about this subject. If someone could point me in the right direction, I'd be eternally grateful.

Thanks.

The cheapest solution for high-quality, fast-loading
.FLV streaming video is On2 Flix | Video Encoders for Adobe Flash Player and Sun JavaFX

The company that makes it created the codec, which
is why this encoded is the cheapest of them all. At
$39 it's a bargain considering the quality of the output.

It doesn't come with a player. You can look at the
free player here: LongTail Video | Home of the JW Player
- I don't use it so I don't know what the licensing
issues are for commercial usage but to start out the
free JW player is worth checking out to get your feet
wet.
