Online Streaming Channels and Video Hosting

Cost effective carbon friendly communication

The Internet is a great way to get a company video out into the public domain, whether you need to communicate with employees, stakeholders, news and media organisations, clients or suppliers. It offers a low carbon, high impact communication solution.

Online Streaming

If you want to use video on the web there are a number of factors you need to consider, and one of the main issues is video streaming. Video streaming is bandwidth hungry and can cause problems for business servers, especially if you have a global audience. Video, if not served correctly can stutter and buffer, meaning that viewers will simply leave your site and go elsewhere. Most large organisations use third party content delivery networks to get round this problem. If you want to be certain that your business video will reach the widest possible audience, you need to use a specialist company, like StreamExchange. StreamExchange's clients enjoy the same world class CDN as some of the world's leading media and entertainment companies.

Video Hosting and publishing

All content uploaded to our back end content management system is encoded into 5 different bit rates, to ensure that your business audience will see the best video stream their bandwidth connection can support. Content is transcoded into H264 by default for streaming in embed flash players, which also means the media is able to be streamed to smart phones and other devices such as to set top box enabled tvs, subject to development of the appropriate applications.  Our embed players can also stream FLV. Video is published to the CMS with metadata, tags, details of geo-restrictions, bumpers, logo or graphic overlays and scheduling options.

Once we have created an embed player for your company or organisation, any new videos that are published to it, will be immediately available for any viewer to see, wherever they are in the world. No phone calls to developers, no embedding new code into a site, just new content added to the player. There is no limit to the length of video that can be uploaded to StreamExchange.

Online Streaming Live

We provide live streaming by arrangement for events such as live web casting or conferences. Online streaming live still gives you all the usual StreamExchange content functionality, including metadata, scheduling, bumpers, geo-restriction and custom live video embed players. Bandwidth may need to be booked in advance especially if you expect the audience to be significant.
