Hello, I'm newbie to FMS and am trying to broadcasting with Flash Media Encoder.

I will setup bitrate to 500Kbps, size 352 x 288 and frame rate is 20.00.
In this way, my DSL (upstream up to 1Mbps, average 800Kbps) is enough to send captured live data to FMS smoothly?

Is there any things that I have to consider to send data to FMS?

Someone please advise.
Thank you.

As a general rule of thumb I usually say you want 3X the upstream of what you are encoding at to get to there server just so you have some headroom. But with 2X you should be fine. You will want to take into consideration any latency you have between you and the server you are publishing to, if it is very low you can push then envelope further.
