Efficient webcast software can’t stand alone against video buffering. Here are some tips on how to avert buffering during a live webcast:
-
Check your Internet Speed
The required Internet speed of a webcast depends on the size and the quality of the files you are viewing.
- 5 Mbps – minimum requirement
- 5 Mbps – recommended speed connection for broadband
- 0 Mbps – recommended for files with DVD quality
- 0 Mbps – recommended for files with HD quality
- 0 Mbps – recommended for files with Super HD quality
- 12 Mbps – recommended for files with 3D quality
Failure to meet these requirements may interrupt the viewing or can affect the efficiency of the live webcast. Check the speed of your Internet connection before you start webcasting to avoid interruptions.
-
Speed up your Computer and Software
Make sure that your computer is updated and that no unnecessary programs are open before starting the webcast. Check your computer’s memory through task manager. Delete some files if necessary. Download antivirus software if you haven’t already done so. Scan your computer to get rid of all the viruses. All of these can help make your computer an efficient tool for a live webcast.
