Bandwidth for TV-Server?

Anaxares · 2006-12-03, 15:22

Hello,

I probably go for Ethernet over power (homeplug), which has about 7MByte/sec at most.
How much bandwidth does one TV-Stream need?

thanks in advance,

Anaxares

Depends on the settings.
You can have satisfactory results at 4-6MBit/s but my settings are 8-12 MBit/s variable rate. 7MBytes/s would be plenty enough for 4-5 clients and a server if there's no other traffic on the network.
Also be aware that even on 100MBit network=10MByte/s that declared values should be divided by 2 to be on the safe side.
Are 7Mbytes/sec only a declared value or a real speed ?
What is the lowest speed for Ethernet over power?

netto speed is declared as 80MBit/sec ~ 10MByte/sec -> at best!
Probably the speed in the last room is can be halved -> 5MByte/sec. Number of TV clients are two plus two audio clients
