Digital Camera for live streaming / RTMP

I'm looking for recommendations on a camera that can be used for live streaming - mostly for church services. Ideally, it would be able to stream directly to YouTube - but alternatively if it can just stream to an rtmp server, I can set up a local rtmp server and then shoot that over to YouTube...

HTPC minimum specs

Sorry for the late response. 720 resolution seems to show the same stuttering. I've dome some experimenting with this. I got a Chromebook, and Acer C720, it seems to do much better at streaming even in 1080 resolution. I also tried booting the J1900 with an Ubuntu Live USB drive...

Everything is Hardware accelerated when I go to chrome://gpu except for Rasterization and Threaded Rasterization. I do notice that video seems to play a lot smoother when it's not in full screen. Going full screen. Choppy might be the right word, maybe laggy. Not all the time, but during...

I think it's something along these lines. I tried playing a Youtube video at 1080 resolution on the J1900 and it played fine, no choppiness or anything. I then tried watching an episode of Gotham from Hulu and it was choppy. I'm guessing something in the codecs used between those two...

I have DirecTV. I've thought about working something up to get a PVR working. But streaming shows that I missed is also an option. ESPN3 is really the main thing I'm after, really hoping that DirecTV signs on to the WatchESPN app and I can use a Chromecast to stream that, that would be ideal...

Power consumption isn't really a factor for me (maybe it should be?). I don't plan on having it on 24/7. Would probably only be on for 5 or 6 hours a week, max. I don't watch a ton of TV. But I don't have a DVR, so if I'm busy on Tuesday night, I can stream Person of Interest later in the...

I don't recommend what I have. It's an Acer computer, relatively new, but just doesn't cut it as an HTPC box (at least for me). I found a refurbished HP DC7900: http://www.neweggflash.com/Product/9SIA4R81JG7061?icid=WP_0_09282014 for $99. With a proper video card (GeForce 210?) might...

Thanks for the reply! I also thought about a Chromebox and then that got me thinking about a Chromebook. I don't use a notebook very often, but at times I have a need for one, I think a Chromebook would do what I need it to do. If it would also double as a makeshift HTPC box, that might be...

What would be the minimum specs needed to stream HD content to a big screen TV? Would an Intel Core2 Duo E8400 be enough? How important is the video card? An E8400 with an Intel GMA 4500 video card, would that work? I'm looking for something that I can use to stream cbs.com full episodes...

Choppy Video Playback

I have an Acer Aspire AXC-603G-UW30 hooked up to my TV with an HDMI cable. When I try to stream videos (mostly from tntdrama.com) the playback is a little jerky. I have tried upgrading the video card drivers from Acer website...
