Hopefully this turns into a self help guide to get the most out of your stream for everyone, but in the interim, I am after tips and advice from the community on how to get better quality on streams. This is not limited to any particular stream service either.

The quality of my stream (livestream.com/siliconsports) is woeful to say the least. The picture quality is so blurred that its not really worth advertising.

What can I do to get this 'up to scratch'?
- What are the best streaming services for a particular location?
- What settings need to be tweaked for the streaming service?
- Any thing else that needs to be taken into consideration?

To do this I guess you need a little background information.

Location: Melbourne, Australia
Connection: ADSL2+ (18/1Mbps up/down)
Service: livestream.com (I am happy to change)
OS: Windows 7 64bit Ultimate

All help appreciated!
