Some Questions

Hi!
I have a site in another host, but a friend just told me about you host service, and the prices are great! So I have some questions:
  • I don't understand much about domains and that stuff, and I have one domain, if I buy a plan here, can you redirect my domain for here, and not to the actual server?
  • I want to use a php script known as PHPMotion, that is like youtbe, so persons that visit my site can upload their fan videos, does your server has this : LAME MP3 Encoder, Libogg + Libvorbis, Mencoder and also Mplayer, FFMpeg-PHP, GD Library 2 or higher , CGI-BIN and Be able to run background processes? If it does not have it, can you install it for me?cus I don't know how
  • I've been reading out the forum, and I found out that if I have Cpanel in the other host you can transfer all to here, without I loose anything.. is that true? and are you the ones whoe do it?
I think this is all I'm wondering about... Thanks a lot in advance, and sorry about my english... I'm portuguese

1 - Yes. Go to your registrar, and change the name-servers to be what Surpass tells you is correct for your site.

2 - Some of that stuff is included, but "shared" hosting is not really a good choice for an active video streaming site. You may want to submit the request for this information to the help desk - desk.surpasshosting.com.

3 - Yep. Cpanel to Cpanel transfers are very good.

No worries. Your english is much better than my portuguese.
