Several enhancements to Vanderbilt Streaming Media Services are in progress. Two new streaming media servers replace the single old system. In addition to doubling the throughput, the two services provide some redundancy to the service. New hardware and software to replace the encoding systems are in the offing. Archived videos have been transferred to the new servers and are ready to stream. Write access to the old storage has been disabled.

The changes should be transparent to most. Those uploading files may need to map a new fileshare and navigate to their directory for upload. Those requirements have been communicated to affected parties. Anyone having questions or experiencing difficulties should contact John Brassil with Streaming Media Services.
