Streaming Live HD content

[niceluciano]

Hi there,

My pc has now died after 3 years biggrin.gif and have decided to build a new one and really want to try proper HD streaming

My internet is cable 120mb down and 10mb up unlimited usage.

i also have a dedicated Linux server used for FTP at the moment which is 1gb up unlimited

Need help to capture content from HDMI output of my camcorder which is 1080i from my home and send the live stream VIDEO AND AUDIO to the dedicated server and give a link to my family in itally, germany, brazil, australlia ieek.gif from the dedicated server (as is 100X faster upload) so they can watch LIVE content of special ocasions of our family using VLC or WMP or whatever.

Have no idea on what software is needed on Windows or Linux noexpression.gif

I have read through many threads and would like to ask any pro's what setup you would recomend.

Budget is around £1500

I Was thinking :

AMD Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition
16GB RAM
150GB 15000RPM MAXTOR REPTOR
Blackmagic Intensity Pro - HDMI Capture Card OR push the boat out and get the :
Blackmagic DeckLink HD Extreme MK3
No idea on graphics card

Any help would be appricated

Thanks

Are plan any video transcoding?.
Will you be doing anything else on it like playing games and etc?.
Don't buy into the high RPM hard drives there just a rip off don't buy in to it.
If you after ture mega speed then your best beat SSD drive but they cost lot of cash.
You will need way more 150 GB keep in mind that you be dealing with uncompressed video so you may want think about RAID and go to at lease 2/4TB 1Gb/s or 600GB/hr, I say go for 4x 1TB drive with 32MB Cache.
Unless you plan done a lot of real time effects that Blackmagic DeckLink HD may not be what you want.
