Preparing Videos for Streaming on the ITS Streaming Server

Videos uploaded to the ITS Streaming Server should be saved in QuickTime format. Our streaming server will not support Flash videos, Windows Media, or Real Video. In addition, all videos uploaded to the streaming server should have what are called “hinted tracks”. These tracks enable the videos to be streamed bit by bit in real time without waiting for the whole video to download. You can tell if a video has a hinted track by opening it in QuickTime Pro 7 ($30 upgrade to the QuickTime Player available from Apple) and selecting Movie Properties from the Window menu.

You can see in the photo above that the movie has a Sound Track, a Video Track, a Hinted Video Track, and a Hinted Sound Track. The movie below does not have hinted tracks and will give you an “Unsupported Media” error if you upload it to the streaming server.
