Hello,


We are preparing to jump :)

Any advice on 4K livestreaming over the Internet ? Anyone here did it?

We'll be able to use vMix for a such project ?


Thank you,

I would have serious doubts that the average person's computer would be able to handle this kind of resolution, especially in a Flash RTMP environment. What is the scenario you have in mind? Who is your stream destination?

Absolutely right :) In fact, many times there are problems with HD resolution in livestreaming.
In our project the destination is a 4K cinema venue and we should be able to control the internet connection at both ends.

I have done 1080 to a cinema for a live sports event with success using vMix. The Key, al least in my scenario, was adequate Bandwidth and/Encode/Decode process.

We stream 1080 all the time, even over our 3G modem. But only at 3 megabit :) I'm sure you can also stream 4K at 3 or 4 megabit, but i'd rather stream 1080 10 mbit then :)

FMLE is a horribly inefficient encoder, I recommend you use FFMPEG. If you have control of your internet connection at both ends, I suggest using the "-preset" option with a value like "superfast".

I *think* the HEVC encoder (libx265) supports that. I've used it in libx264 with success to lower CPU usage at the expense of compression efficiency.

One Word. Zixi

I also try to use Hardware Encoder/Decoder, but last project was done using FMLE
