IP streaming allows broadcasters to reach a wider audience while providing greater flexibility in terms of delivery, storage, and distribution. This means that viewers can now access content on a range of devices, including smartphones, tablets, laptops, and smart TVs. Additionally, IP streaming enables broadcasters to deliver content in real-time, which is particularly important for live events such as sports matches or breaking news. However, the transition to IP streaming has not been without its challenges, particularly when it comes to latency, stability, and maintaining high-quality viewing standards. The quality of video and audio content can be affected by a range of factors, including bandwidth limitations, signal compression, latency issues, and bad format conversions. To ensure that viewers receive the best possible viewing experience, high-quality standards conversion is essential.

Watch industry legend Bruce Devlin and our very own VP of Product, Dom Jackson as they discuss these various challenges associated with high quality conversions in live IP environments, and how the technologies required to pull this magic trick off successfully are finally all coming together.
