Hi I'm looking for a VPS or a Semi-Dedi (most preferred) that will allow video encoding. I will need 

50GB Space

1TB Bandwidth

1GB RAM

4 Cores (more cores would be nice)

Windows (You do not need to provide license)

Any Location

$25/month

Is 1TB a generous estimate or do you know you'll use all 1TB of bandwidth?

Is that 8 dedicated cores?  What exact CPU model and frequency?  Do you have more of them?  Is that hosted at Colocrossing?  Thanks.

Hmm I never used Xen before. Does Xen have virtio drivers supported? or is it like automatic installed?

What's the CPU model?

Xen virtual servers can be treated as if they were a dedicated server. It's complete isolation.

We use Xeon E3-1240v2 CPUs.

@willie We only have one of these in stock, sorry.

This is something I'd also be interested in, so if anyone has anything they can offer, please drop me a message.

Doesn't mean they are. The cores will get equal share or what have you where as the OP needs dedicated cores for long running encodes.

Isn't Video Encoding really CPU heavy task? I really (personally) would not recommend anyone to encode video on a vps. Not at least  on a vps that is <=50$/mo.

Right. It eats 100% of whatever cores are allocated to it.

yes video encoding is CPU heavy but there are a few vps providers that allow video encoding. One example would be buyvm but they only have 2 cores :(
