Webinar: The Video APIs & SDK Revolution

Posted on 17th August 2018 by Russell Trafford-Jones

Date: Thursday August 23rd 2018, 11am PT / 2pm ET / 19:00 BST

Streaming Media are back with Bitmovin and MUX to talk about APIs.
After all, more APIs and SDKs than ever are available to developers, and they’re getting smarter—allowing businesses to advance their video development at a more rapid pace. APIs simplify everything from payment processing to content management, and SDKs allow for heretofore unheard-of customization for everything from formats and delivery protocols to player controls and features.

Learn how to leverage APIs and SDKs to grow your video business fast, as they dive into these issues:

How developers can use APIs and SDKs to build highly customized video streaming platforms, instead of relying on out-of-the-box OVPs
The implications and challenges of the APIs & SDK revolution for enterprise engineering teams
Best practices for relying on third-party APIs: testing, monitoring, etc.
What developers need to know about the video infrastructure layer
How to decide which video API fits your needs
What resources exist to help broadcast engineers, as well as “traditional” software engineers, advance their video development skills.

Video: HEVC Vs AV1 and the Future of the Codec Battle

Posted on 14th August 2018 by Russell Trafford-Jones

In this debate from NAB 2018, the panel discusses the video codecs which are competing to be the next-generation standard in the OTT environment and, notably, HEVC and AV1 being the front-runners. The debate on which video standard is best suited to our industry is in full swing especially as the Alliance for Open Media released AV1 at the NAB Show and Apple is supporting HEVC in its products and has decided to join the Alliance for Open Media as a founding member. This panel discusses the pros and cons of HEVC and AV1, and also put in perspective content-aware encoding techniques with AVC that might be a strong challenger in the short term for OTT distribution.

Webinar: Managing Transition to HEVC/VP9/AV1 with Multi-Codec Streaming

Posted on 20th July 2018 by Russell Trafford-Jones

In this talk from Streaming Media East 2018 Paul MacDougall from Bitmovin discusses moving from h.264 to newer codecs.

Video streaming is in a transition towards the next generation of video codecs, offering to double the quality while lowering the required bandwidth. As the successor crown to the ubiquitous AVC/H.264 is still up for grabs, major content providers and device manufacturers are throwing their weights behind competing formats – HEVC/VP9/AV1 – leading to market fragmentation, specifically within web environments. To deal with this challenge, OTT services need to support multiple codecs in an efficient way.

In this presentation, Paul talks about how to evaluate the benefits and the tradeoffs of embracing next-generation compression technologies in your media workflow. He looks at the state of the browser market and compatibility, current deployment percentages and then how to decide whether to do multiple encoding on an asset or not. Paul finished with advice on playback and the state of smart TVs.

Webinar: DRM – Back to Basics

Posted on 21st May 2018 by Russell Trafford-Jones

Webinar: 15:00 & 20:00 BST 24th May 2018

Watching this webinar, you will learn about selecting and implementing the right premium content protection/DRM.

Content protection is key to a successful content monetisation strategy and with the recent evolution of streaming formats and standards, it is now easier than ever to create DRM-protected streaming systems. The ability to support all of today’s DRMs – including Widevine, Fairplay and PlayReady – in an efficient and easy-to-manage workflow is crucial for operators who want to enable richer feature sets, such as offline viewing and TVE.
