I just moved to Arvixe and am testing them out today. I couldn't process videos on my former host so I can't compare. I have noticed that video quality is suffering. My test videos were 5-10 meg in size from a point and shoot camera. Quality is excellent when run locally, but when uploaded to D7 they are fuzzy and blocky/pixelated if thats the word to use. I don't expact as good as running them on the locally, but I was expecting better quality than this.
One thing I did notice is in the log that gets emailed are errors like this...
WARNING: The bitrate parameter is set too low. It takes bits/s as argument, not kbits/s
WARNING: The bitrate parameter is set too low. It takes bits/s as argument, not kbits/s Output #0, mp4,
Error while opening codec for output stream #0.1 - maybe incorrect parameters such as bit_rate, rate, width or height
If the bitrate parameters are set too low, is this something the host sets or something I can change?
