Rich Media (Live and VOD) for Mobile

By 2014, mobile video content will account for fully 66% of the total predicted 3.6 exabytes of mobile data traffic delivered each month. Supporting the required formats and protocols for delivery of video to mobile devices will become more important than ever. And as the range of devices grows, it will become more complex as well.

Core capabilities within the Mirror Image CDN service include multi-protocol streaming capabilities through a single workflow that can stream H.264/AAC video/audio and MP3 content to any media platform and any screen simultaneously via RTSP/RTP, MPEG-TS or RTMP, Apple HTTP Live Streaming, and Microsoft Smooth Streaming protocols from virtually any conventional live stream encoder, or files in standard containers, eliminating the need for special player-specific encoders or servers like Adobe Flash, Real Media, Windows Media or Quicktime.

Additional functionality provided by the Mobile Advertising Solution complements the core CDN’s multi-protocol, multi-player features to dynamically detect the capabilities of each device and assist in programmatically building the proper URL, all in real time, to deliver the content using the appropriate video format, path, protocol, bit rate, and so on. By dynamically optimizing the video experience based on each device type, screen size, media player, etc. for video on demand and live streaming, each viewer’s experience and retention is maximized, regardless of the device or connection.
