Low Cost Video Broadcast

By bulk buying the video streaming service on your behalf, you benefit from five figure service levels for a fraction of the costs, all with minimal set up costs and extremely responsive lead times. The minimum service level for a streaming service of this quality are far too high for most users and as a consequence don't offer a good return on investment. By bulk buying and splitting the service between our clients, we aim to make streaming financially viable to anyone who has a commercial need for it .

Extremely Robust Global Platform

Our hosting network is truly global. Your streamed video content is mirrored across server clusters all over the world. What this means to you is capacity for millions of concurrent viewers, fast response and start times wherever you are and lots of redundancy for mission critical projects should a server farm in one location fail.

FREE Flash Player

We provide a free lightweight custom made player for quick and easy embedding of the streaming video on your web page as part of the service. The player provides the basic functions you would expect to be able to control and embed video content into your web pages.

Dedicated named technical account manager

We're a friendly bunch, with direct dial telephone lines, so if you do need to speak to us, you won't be explaining the same problem twice each time you call and absence excepted, you'll be talking to the same contact each time you call. There's no "first line", we value interpersonal relationships and we know enough to offer prudent advice on a variety of subjects.

FLV Encoding Service

If you have footage on DVD, tape or digitised in other formats, we can encode your videos to FLV with performance in mind. We do not batch process video footage and will treat each encoding project on its merit, balancing file size against visual performance to keep impact high and bandwidth charges low.

No Video Size or Length Restrictions

We really don't mind if you want to host a feature film at full screen or a 10 second advertisement  as an MPU... video is video. What we can do is advise you about any technical limitations that may adversely affect the user experience, or cost you money unnecessarily, but if you tell us you'd like to stream a short film at 1080p, we'll tell you who will and won't be able to view it and we're good to go.

Excellent Playback Quality with No Buffering

Streaming video provides a near instant start and downloads as it plays. The combination of encoding techniques, global backbone and improvements in home and business internet connectivity means the average end user can experience excellent playback quality streamed video content into the home or office.  The user experience using our network is as of that you would expect from a service such as BBC iplayer as it uses identical technologies, albeit on a global rather than national basis.

Custom Built Flash Players

For the brand conscious or those who need more control, we can produce custom built Flash players that communicate with our streaming servers, providing you a visually cohesive, end to end streaming video solution that looks and performs fantastically. Our custom players are currently used by some of the biggest household names in the country, including Asda and Dollond & Aitchison.

Free Telephone Support

If you've got an idea, or there's something you're not sure of, you can call us free and we'll talk you through your concerns and queries.
