TikiLIVE offers video streaming that outpaces industry standard
Marathon, FL. January 16, 2013 – Eyepartner has developed video streaming that engages in less than 3 seconds to meet the very specific demands of video technology. TikiLIVE’s OTT Wifi HLS Set Top Box is the first to deliver this record-breaking high speed with smooth streaming capability. To satisfy the demands of technology, data must be delivered consistently at the rate required. When data streaming to mobile and computer systems is interrupted, the interrupt may result in missing audio or video information. A long delay in the data stream results in the loss of a larger block of data, which would be noticeable to a viewer. With TikiLIVE’s OTT Wifi HLS Set Top Box, viewers and broadcasters are guaranteed reliable, high-speed delivery of multimedia content.
“Our high speed streaming capability allows Set Top Boxes, computers and mobile devices to achieve maximum performance,” comments Tim Green, CEO and President of Eyepartner. “And with HTML5, customers no longer need to install time-consuming plugins to get great multimedia content.”
Selecting multimedia content is easy using TikiLIVE’s electronic programming guide system (EPG). TikiLIVE’s Set Top Box EPG is a continuously updated menu that lists all television or radio content provided by cable, satellite or radio companies. Data that populates an EPG can be received in several ways including the internet, a dedicated video channel or via proprietary software provided in a set-top box such as TikiLIVE’s HTML5 OTT WiFi HLS Set Top Box. EPGs are interactive, allowing customers to navigate, select and view content using a remote control, mouse, keyboard or other input device.
Customers can search for categories of content, a specific show or channel, or the type of content (free or premium) on TikiLIVE. “We wanted to make our broadcaster’s content even more accessible to TikiLIVE users,” reports Green. “For the broadcaster, EPG simplifies the distribution process and makes viewing easier for the user.”
The white-label TikiLIVE set top box is immediately ready for “over-the-top” services that ride on top of the broadband bus and don’t require any business or technology affiliations with the underlying broadband network. Operators are already earning revenue from mobile video delivery now. A significant change in the industry is the rise in popularity of long-form content such as full-length movies and television programs. These place large demands on the network in areas such as capacity, sustained quality, and the need to support content across multiple screens as consumers begin viewing on one device, then want to move seamlessly to another. TikiLIVE HTML5 OTT WiFi HLS Set Top Box offers a fully customizable delivery platform.
“Operators who wish to embrace this growing business opportunity must first prepare their networks technically for increased online video traffic, then decide on the appropriate over-the-top (OTT) strategy for their market and pursue it,” states Green. “Eyepartner is geared up and racing ahead of the pack in delivering customized solutions to this exploding demand.”
Users can broadcast and view streaming HD content from their desktop through their own branded channel. TikiLIVE’s platform dramatically cuts the cost of producing and sharing video content online. For a business, community, or individual, TikiLIVE can increase revenues beyond those currently now earned from mobile and computer video delivery. Eyepartner custom-designs complete white label interface: TikiLIVE Wifi HLS Set Top Boxes can be branded to networks, broadcasters can instantly stream live in stunning HD quality without any proprietary hardware, users can build an interactive broadcasting network community under their brand, and more. White label platform users can manage their events, whether a one-time, multiple occurrence, or recurring event from TikiLIVE’s simple-to-use interface.
