That might be not really true. The datarate you have to expcet is
described in exactly in the mjpeg howto section:Unsorted list of useful
Hints

Audio: ( Samplerate * Channels * Bitsize ) / (8 * 1024)
Video: (width * height * framerate * quality ) / (200 * 1024)

You have to add both values together. To get the datarate in kb/sec.


auf hoffentlich bald,
