Complete IPTV solutions providers, delivering innovative products for content providers and end-users, have redefined how people view content across the globe. But what does “end-to-end” really mean? In this article, we’ll illustrate how IPTV products interact with one another, and how they collectively handle every part of the IPTV process—from content provider to end user.
For content providers, juggling content in a mix of formats, file types, and resolutions can be tricky to manage. The ideal solution to this problem is Setrix, a full-service, customizable encoding and transcoding system that streamlines files of all kinds for a seamless and stable streaming experience for the end user.
Setrix delivers uncompromising quality, unmatched power, and a simple, web-manageable user interface, which allows programmers to build and customize encoding and IPTV video transcoding streams in real time. Groundbreaking Setrix software and hardware integration combined with excellent processing power makes upgrading and adding delivery channels simple and cost-effective—no need to add additional hardware to boost video quality. By itself, Setrix can encode and transcode in resolutions up to 1080i Full HD.
Content Delivery NetworkEnd users become more and more demanding every day, requiring uninterrupted content streaming and access to content whenever (and wherever) they need it.
