Purchase dedicated server instead of streaming on VPS because of most of provider have a limitation on bandwidth usage.
If you cross some hidden usage speed like 4Mbps, 10Mbps per hour then they can suspend your VPS and your business will be at a risk.
Quite impossible with a VM. (at least in my experience).
What I did was I got a hosted Mac Mini and run OBS from there to stream to youtube & twitch. I've been running that setup for almost a year.
Ofcourse you can get a cheaper server and put windows on it. But I had difficulties searching for a provider that has at least an on-board graphics chip (that can run OBS) on their offers.
A dedicated server won't fix that issue.. A dedicated server is dedicated hardware resources, not network.. (typically)
What do you mean by that? If you don't really need any of the advanced production features something like i.e. obs offers you can also use ffmpeg on linux.
Otherwise if you need a GPU my post in my thread has a collection of several servers/providers that would allow streaming.
no need gpu if it only one channel, use ffmpeg for encoding then push it streaming to server
Guys the problem is the image isn't stable
Just like when you play video on ordinary rdp
Is GPU solve it ??
You need dedicated server with high-end specs + graphic card to able stream properly on Windows server. And that will cost $$$
Btw, why on earth you want to broadcast live stream from RDP? Is it euro 2016 streaming ?
No, it's an IPTV server project
Why are you tying to upsell such a simple solution, if a provide rate limits you at 10Mbps per hour then they must be a pretty shit provider. Most providers will easily let you use 100-500mbps in bursts without any problems. If you're constantly steaming one thing then I double it would be over 10Mbps and get rate limited.
