Live Broadasts

If you wish to use the server for live broadcasts please contact ISS TV services directly or send a request to it.servicedesk@ncl.ac.uk

How Live Broadcasts Work

  • Capture devices (video camera/microphone) used to capture the video/audio
  • Encoding PC connected to the capture device sends the captured video/audio to the Streaming Server stream.ncl.ac.uk
  • The streaming server broadcasts the audio/video over the Internet to users (in web browsers or stand alone media player clients)
  • The streaming server also archives a copy of the broadcast for later repeat broadcasts
