Webcast current and future capacity

I was told that the webcast system could handle around 100 for a regular event and 200 for a large event (when checked). Is this still accurate, and are there plans to expand the capacity? With the current state of things, online broadcasts will likely be much more frequent and a much larger audience, so wanted to know if the system can support that, and to what level.

See this post in another thread.

Thank you! Sorry for missing that other chat in my searches. Does anyone know if there are plans to increase from the 400 to handle an entire stake?

That wouldn't happen unless the current directives change.

At this point, all stake conferences are postponed. Nothing has been said about webcasting local meetings. So, at this point, there's nothing (other than General Conference in 3 weeks) that would call for such a thing.

You might have to look outside the church webcasting system if you need to handle a larger numbers of connections.

Thank you. Just answering questions from the local leaders.

There actually is a higher capacity solution in the works (also briefly mentioned in that thread).
