Video Streaming Servers?

[Vec&sec]

I'm launching a video-on-demand platform and require a dedicated server optimized for video encoding and streaming.
Could you suggest a suitable configuration? What are your views on GTHost.com dedicated servers? Are they reliable? Other options?

I'd draw your attention to servers from hostingsource.com.
Peaceful, stress-free, effective hosting at great prices.
East to setup and use. Clear and efficient user interface.
Always reliable.
