Activating, monitoring and managing multiple CDNs is challenging because every CDN operates differently. We offer an easier way to subscribe to CDNs and act as a single point of orchestration across them all, helping your website deliver greater performance and reliability.
To make delivery even faster, we are directly connected with third-party video PoPs, keeping your feed delivery seamless.
A consistently clean feed with no ad overlays, delivered through a fully integrated web player, makes us the prime provider for your web stream.
With extensive experience providing live transmission services for two household names in sports broadcasting, your most complex services are in safe hands.
To complement our live transmission capabilities, we have a studio complex and production facilities co-located at our Feltham media centre, catering for both long-term and ad hoc production requirements.
This is all seamlessly managed by our experienced team of operations, technical and facilities staff. They will guide you through the technical launch planning, configuration and implementation phases. But that’s not all. Once on air, you benefit from our dedicated 24×7 service and support. For example, when one customer moved from their previous play-out supplier we switched over 5,000 hours of content and operated dual-run channels for the transition period.
Our multi-channel facility can ingest around 7,000 hours of new content every month. This means we’ve got the capacity to support your channel growth objectives. There is also additional multi-line live ingest for our live sports customers like ESPN and British Euro-sport. These join other major broadcasters, such as Chellozone and Sony, who all trust us to play out their channels – over 50 channels in all.
Keeping your channel on air is paramount, so we’re committed to providing broadcast-critical infrastructure. This includes robust pro-active monitoring systems focusing on the critical elements that matter to your business. We also use a dual and diverse power supply with generator back-up, all further protected by a fire suppression system and UPS for all equipment racks. This gives you peace of mind that we’ll keep you on air, whatever the eventuality.
Our ability to provide you with both playout and distribution services ensures that you benefit from end-to-end consistency, a single point of contact and a commercially compelling proposition. What’s more, our innovative and flexible systems allow you to build workflows faster and launch channels quicker than your competition. Those are valuable advantages in a highly competitive market.
And to keep you at the cutting edge we’re always looking for smarter and more ingenious ways of doing things. We were the first to move into file-based workflows and the first playout provider to offer remote playout. Now we can even offer you media asset management for hybrid (or ‘Connected’) TV. This includes FreeView channels plus additional channels via your broadband connection – in other words, real-time channel streaming.
