This project is done and now up. Notes to follow.

Setup:
Streaming with the Windows Media Encoder 9 series:

In order to broadcast you should have the following components and/or software:
A. Windows Media 9 Series Encoder (Download software for local computer)

B. Video encoding card must be software based with windows drivers!
Not mpeg 2 hardware based. Surprisingly some of the cheaper cards word better in this regard.

C. Access to a Windows media streaming server. (remote server).

D. DSL or above.

STEP 1 - After starting up the Windows Media Encoder and starting a new session, choose “Broadcast a live event”.

STEP 2 - Next, select, the devices you wish to use to broadcast with.

STEP 3 - Select your broadcast method. (Push method).

STEP 4 - Enter your server address and publishing point. . You will also be prompted for a user name and password.

STEP 5 - Select your desired encoding rates.

STEP 6 - Select whether or not you would like to record your broadcast to a file on your local machine. (Optional.)

STEP 7 - Choose if you would like to use additional files along with your broadcast devices.

STEP 8 - Enter your broadcast information. (Title, author, etc.).

STEP 9 - Click “Start Encoder” button.

CONGRATULATIONS! You are now broadcasting !

That is till server locks up and you need to reconnect! (click encoder stop/start button) This happen once every 48 hours at random so read below.

Solution setup a macro to start stop encoder 2 to 4 times a day! Also disconnects users so all band width is not used by someone leaving there computer on. But most important keeps stream up.(it automates the mouse and clicks!)
