Webinar: Cloud Vs. On-Prem Video Processing and Delivery

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones

Webinar: Jan 25th 2018, 11am PT/2pm ET/19:00 GMT

The cloud has transformed video processing and delivery, and it’s more robust, efficient, and flexible than ever. But on-premise solutions still have their place, as do hybrid solutions that offer the best of both worlds. Join this webinar for an insightful discussion and debate about the pros and cons of all three approaches.

Topics discussed will include the following:
• Capacity planning in the cloud vs. on-prem
• How the “cloud” relates to the physical infrastructure, and whether it matters
• Ability to move quickly with cloud deployments vs. long-term costs
• Specific functions that always benefit from being distributed or on-prem
• Considerations for high availability and disaster recovery
• Protecting against piracy
• Cloud vs. on-prem vs. hybrid—when and why each approach is called for

Webinar: Remote Production: Game changer for sports broadcasting

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones


Webinar: 25 Jan 2018, 13:00 GMT
This IBC365 webinar explores how broadcasters and production companies are overcoming technical and operational challenges benefit from remote production and how it is changing the way sports broadcasters operate.

Tata Comms CTO Jeremy Dijardin explains how remote production helps broadcasters economically generate a high volume of sports content, improving productivity and efficiency by leveraging telecoms infrastructure.

Dhaval Ponda from Tata Comms and Jos Liemer from VISTA Worldlink discuss how broadcasters can now go about producing feeds remotely at a central location only a handful of camera crew have to travel while the technical director, commentator and other key crew members can finalise production at a central location avoiding 30-40 people traveling to each location with kit to produce the programme.

Webinar: Per-Title Encoding: Netflix-style Optimization for Quality and CDN Costs

Posted on by Russell Trafford-Jones

Webinar: 18th Jan 2018 | 4PM GMT / 11 AM ET / 8AM PT
Apply Netflix’s technique to your videos to save bandwidth.
Since Netflix popularized the concept of flexible encoding ladders, per-title encoding optimization has been gaining recognition for its quality optimization as well as bandwidth-saving advantages. In this webinar, you will learn how encoding video at bitrates appropriate to the content achieves significant bandwidth savings, as well as improves the video quality.

Every piece of content is different, and each requires specific encoding settings to look good. Since Netflix popularized the concept of flexible encoding ladders, per-title encoding optimization has been gaining recognition for its quality and bandwidth-saving advantages.

It sounds simple enough, but there is a good reason it took the streaming giant years to make per-title encoding a viable part of their video delivery workflow. Since each and every encode requires individual analysis as the first step, the process is both very time consuming and expensive (more about the reasons why here). Until now, implementing per-title encoding optimization was only accessible to the largest streaming organizations.

Join Bitmovin Encoding Product Manager, Martin Smole, in conversation with the Sr Director of Product Marketing, Kieran Farr, in a live webinar. You will

  • Learn/review the theories behind per-title encoding optimization
  • Discuss real-life applications,
  • Go through feature setup in the Bitmovin API.
