Media Server

Please could someone explain what you need the Media Server for? I notice 7.0.4 requires a new download of the Media Server.

Should I be using this/Do I need this?

I've read documentation about the RMS previously but still couldn't work out whether I require it. My site appears to run well without it.

Any feedback appreciated. Thanks

Nope it is not required for the basic functions, basically it is for everything that has to be with Video, Chat and Streaming

Thanks for your response. What difference will it make with uploading videos to my site?

Thanks

RMS doesn't effect your video uploading or playing on your site,

it just affects Video recording, video chat, and dashboard and some feature that i forgeted

Thanks :)

So in order to enhance the video comments that members can leave on others wall, it would make sense to use a media server?
