From what I hear from my friends who edit video, pro video editing workflows can involve some pretty hefty bitrates beyond what 1gbit networking can handle.

- sillysaurusx 5y agoI'm not sure I understand why that would be true. If all of the assets are on the server, why wouldn't the server send down a compressed view of the video? It can do progressive sharpening too, so that e.g. if you pause the video you can see the full quality. I agree that it's not ideal, but a lot of people would use it if the price was right. I would. As far as the video assets being on the server, sure, it may suck to upload those. But people do (sometimes) upload HQ assets to youtube, so it's not unheard of.
