Live Streaming Software Features

Customizable Player Development

Implement a top-notch player packed with multibitrate, DVR, simulated live, and recording to provide audiences with TV-quality live streaming whatever the device. Let your player go beyond pure playback to support content protection, analytics, and advertising while leveraging next-gen capabilities such as VR and 360° video.

Analytics and QoE/QoS Monitoring

Analyze both viewing behavior and stream quality to get the full picture of how your content performs across various audiences, destinations, and devices. Compare real-time insights with historical data to make informed decisions, and easily share your findings throughout the organization.

On-the-Fly Stream Processing

Let artificial intelligence-based tools help your staff process huge amounts of incoming data in real time. Enforce regulation compliance through instant flagging of sensitive video content, generate rich metadata for professional and entertainment purposes, or create engaging highlights of the event in seconds.

Second-Screen Software

Take full advantage of second screens to boost and measure viewers’ engagement while they are watching VoD content, and to create more opportunities for advertisers. Deliver interactive, synchronized apps that augment real-time broadcasts with background information, discussions, polls, games, and much more.

Image Recognition

Use lightning-fast face and object recognition solutions to detect and track leading players, bring the focus on exciting moments of the game as they unfold, recognize important attendees and celebs in the crowd, or collect detailed marketing data for later use.

Seamless Ad Insertion

Implement server-side ad insertion (SSAI) to enable smooth delivery of pre-roll, mid-roll and post-roll commercials, including protection from ad blockers. Ads will be stitched to video files at the server level and then shown as part of the original content.
