I want to setup a live TV service for my audiences.

If i want to stream 10 channels with a single computer, what kind of processor would be capable to run and encode 10 instances of Flash Media Live Encoder at a time.

Hi Zareef,

The answer really would depend on what type of encodes you will be doing on each of the FMLE instances. Lower resolution data rate streams would require less CPU power, while HD streams would probably not work on 1 machine.

I would recommend checking the FMLE specific forum to possibly get a more accurate response.

Regards,
