Streaming Media Applications

Some applications for streaming media are listed below. In principle however, wherever there is an audio or video device, its output can be converted and streamed. Please contact us if there is an application you would like us to consider.

Live Events/Concerts
Appease those who cannot make it at the time or location and reach a wider audience for indoor or outdoor events by streaming content over the internet, whilst simultaneously recording it for later use. Those watching online can be charged for watching/listening.

Corporate Videos
Many companies now have their own corporate video, for purposes such as distribution to potential clients, or displaying in their office foyer. There is no point in stopping here however, since the reach of this valuable marketing material can be exponentially increased by streaming the video from their website.

Online TV/Radio
Many small specialist communities are now producing their own TV and radio channels for broadcast online. The rise of video sharing sites, such as YouTube, together with press coverage of the likes of “Tory TV” have only heightened their appeal, and these can be a valuable tool for both common interest groups and business.

Podcasting
Technically not streaming, however the concept of “podcasting”, and its text alternative “blogging”, have seen a phenomenal growth in popularity, generally among individuals, but also with Chief Executives and others in the business community, who feel the need to regularly communicate with many others, in a flexible way. Regular recorded sessions can be downloadable in podcast format or converted into on-demand broadcast streams.

Product Launches
Why limit the visibility of an expensive product launch by only allowing those in the room to see it? Streaming live footage over the internet can make a worldwide audience accessible, and the footage can subsequently be made “on demand” for those who weren’t available at the time, or wish to view it later.

Product Sampling
Products such as DVD videos, music or software can be recorded and edited to provide a short overview of the product, providing a superior demonstration to screenshots. These clips can be shown together with product information, prior to purchasing.

Security
Home/Office security cameras or audio recorders, accessible live and remotely from anywhere in the world with an internet connection. Depending on connections speed, streaming can take place directly (from source), or via our London data centre.
