[streaming] Re: Transcoding 75 streams

[Marshall Eubanks]

Look at the DATN experience -they use 1 X Serve box per high

soon. Dig into

This uses QTB.

They also have implemented scripts to reboot streams that die, etc.,  
for high availability.

P.S. As Mboned Co-chair, I like to hear about IPTV deployments, so  
please send me information  if you can.
