Live Video Broadcasting Software
Although user friendliness, reliability and bandwidth are important factors to consider when using live video broadcasting software, you also need to consider the features that come with it. These extra features can make or break video broadcasting software. Different companies and individuals are going to require different features. Knowing this, Eyepartner has developed programs such asTikiLIVE and The HD Wave Broadcaster which are loaded with features to accommodate the many different companies and individuals using video broadcasting software. This article will discuss some of the many features that accompany each type of software and explain how it will benefit you.

TikiLIVE: TikiLIVE is 100% turnkey and an “out of the box” ready platform that utilizes the best live video broadcasting software around. TikiLIVE allows users to upload, store and manage videos, channels and members to create video content for niche marketing. In addition to all these features users can customize and brand, a.k.a. “white label,” every aspect of their network.

In addition to live broadcasts  users can simultaneously record them for use as Video On Demand. After the broadcast is over, you can save, view, edit or archive it for future viewing. Users can create multiple channels to accommodate multiple audiences and build interactive broadcasting network communities. Videos can be displayed in crystal clear High Definition or high quality Standard Definition.  Users can also create schedules for shows and even set the videos into a timeline and have them play on a pseudo-live schedule just like real TV!

Moreover, social networking tools like chat, messaging, and blogging are built into TikiLIVE, allowing viewers to comment on video they see in real time. For clients who are interested in monetizing their media we have several options. You can set all content, either Live or Video On Demand as Pay Per View. If you are looking for advertising revenue, TikiLIVE offers both pre, mid and post-roll video ads as well as banner ads. Not into micro-managing? You can sell channels to other broadcasters and let them do the work while you collect a monthly fee for this service AND a ticket master fee for any Pay Per View events they hold!

The HD Wave Broadcaster: The HD Wave Broadcaster enables users to stream in High Definition or Standard Definition. In addition, users can stream tournaments, concerts, movies, demonstrations, product overviews and a variety of other live events. You can stream your live and recorded events to IPTV networks directly to Set Top Boxes (like a cable box) too!  The HD Wave Broadcaster streams both HTML5 and Flash, allowing for optimal viewing for any device.

Great live video broadcasting software cannot function on features, user friendliness, reliability and bandwidth alone. These aspects must work together to provide users and their members with the best possible video broadcasting experience. With all of these things going on you should do your best to thoroughly research the software before you commit to it. We have a staff that is willing and able to help and you can always get us on the phone!

Live streaming software is the wave of the future. With advancements in technology, a variety of streaming products bring the future into desktop computers, laptops and netbooks anywhere. These tools expand content management opportunities into the live streaming market, making it one of the fastest growing Internet industries.

Eyepartner offers professional live streaming software ideal for streaming all forms of digital content. In real-time, users can video conference, video chat, share movies, share music and connect with users across the world. The media that traditional developers broadcast over the radio, TV, cable and antenna becomes a valuable resource, a rich commodity, to be shared across the world with the aid of software that connects to a streamlined network of servers.

You don’t have to be a professional in the IT or video and audio business to run these applications. Eyepartner’s broadcasting solution has been designed to be both powerful as well as simple enough for anyone to manage. Eyepartner has developed a product called “The HD Wave” that runs on inexpensive off-the-shelf PC’s. It delivers crystal clear high-definition and hours of endless footage can be streamed and shared to an endless customer base on a 24-hour network.

Past web models emphasized content sharing as a one-way model. A producer shares the content; people consume and pass it along. The new model encourages people to actively participate in the content. Producers distribute content to consumers who now can participate in the process by uploading and storing their own content. For example utilizing off-the-shelf hardware, users create and upload their media to their own TikiLIVE network composed of as many channels as they desire. Working through an intuitive and elegant channel manager, TikiLIVE users can personalize their network to an astonishing degree. The HD Wave is the broadcaster allowing you to stream a live show up to 60 fps and using a wide range of video sources. The HD Wave does require a modern PC running a Windows Vista or Window7 Operating System. For information on computer requirements, please call or email me via the information below.

Using this revolutionary broadcaster you can record videos then transcode into multiple formats, making them accessible to Windows, Mac and Linux users across a variety of video playing platforms. The content then can be stored and archived to generate a continuous revenue stream in the same way that TV producers have long made money with off-network syndication. For more information about how to easily encode your video files please access this link:www.monsterencoder.com

Traditionally speaking, live streaming software has been about sharing content freely, and relying on advertisers to cover the costs. New software takes advantage of revenue streaming opportunities. The cost of bandwidth for high definition content changed the game, and revenue became a must. With these products, producers can make money from the content they manage in a variety of fresh ways. One of the core values behind the revenue generating approach is branding. Users create channels and then brand those channels around the content and customer base.

TikiLIVE offers both pre-roll video ads and pop-up image ads. Users can also monitor their audience by location and viewing habits for marketing or other purposes. Individuals and nonprofits can accept donations through TikiLIVE and choose to have them administered either by TikiLIVE or a trusted third-party merchant. All told, TikiLIVE represents an outstanding means to transform online broadcasting into a revenue source. See the following tutorial to understand how to monetize your content with TikiLIVE.

Using en vogue advertising approaches, the live streaming software offered by Eyepartner opens a multitude of revenue streaming opportunities to clients. The products include tools to use viral marketing, promote events and products and produce specific content for niche audiences. These models generate revenue and increase customer base while building a recognizable brand.

All of these services come with a sturdy backbone of administrator solutions. As executive producers, administrators can control every function of the operation like the CEO of a startup company. The menus and options are easy-to-understand and tailor to each producer’s specific needs. With a robust statistics management system, producers will be able to tailor their content to current users and untapped markets at the same time.

Here in the Eyepartner office we have many computers, several of them acting as dedicated broadcasters 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. They are evenly split between laptops and desktops; we have HP, IBM, Toshiba and Dell computers. It’s an assortment because we jump on great deals when we see them. We prove that you don’t have to spend a lot to be able to broadcast Live in High Definition.

With the introduction of our High Definition broadcaster, The HD Wave, we needed more processing power to be able to handle the strains of broadcasting in true HD. When you broadcast live, the video has to be encoded in real time from whatever file type the video is created in to Flash Video (FLV) in order to be broadcasted over the internet. In order to ensure Fidelity of a video, a quad-core processor is necessary, at a minimum.

A multi-core processor breaks the feed into as many streams as there are cores and then encodes all of the streams simultaneously. For example: a quad-core processor splits the feed four ways, a 6-Core splits the feed into six streams. To broadcast in HD, we recommend at least a quad-core processor. This reduces the chance of your video lagging, buffering or dropping frames.

Our latest purchases have been an HP Laptop and an HP Desktop that we picked up from Office Depot. Both were on sale for under $800. They both have Intel i7 Processors (quad core) with 4GB DDR3 SDRAM. These machines have enough power to run The HD Wave and broadcast live over the internet without breaking the bank.

The HD Wave Broadcaster

Multi-core processors have only recently become accessible to the average user. Quad-cores have only been on the mainstream market for two and a half years. As expected with computer technology, the prices have dropped significantly. Average prices in May of 2008 were well over $2,000 – today computers with those specs are $800 or less. As is the case, you can always find a $2,000 model. Current high end products feature 8-Core processors with 12GB RAM. These features are great options to have, but they are not necessary for today’s normal use.

When choosing a computer, you should look at the performance and functionality you are looking to achieve. Laptops are great if you want to be mobile, but you give up some performance. Desktops are faster with larger displays but are not easy to transport and cannot take much abuse. What sort of use to do have planned for the computer? If you plan on doing Live Broadcasts like us, are these broadcasts going to be from one location or will you be travelling to find your content? Whether you decide to get a laptop or a desktop.

With all of the choices it’s easy to choose indecision over action. Once you put your mind to it, you can get a computer capable of broadcasting in HD for under $800. Just 6 months ago these computers were over $1,200. Just make sure it has a Quad-Core processor or higher.

The following review offers you a quick and easy solution to the question: How can I do live streaming with a Canon Vixia series camcorder and have HD quality? Using our new HD Broadcaster, The HD Wave, together with the Intensity Pro capture card from Black Magic we are streaming in crystal clear HD. Buy the Black Magic Intensity Pro from Amazon.com.

In order to transmit both video and audio through a broadcasting computer, a broadcaster must connect a video source and an audio source to their broadcasting computer or Plug and Play Broadcaster. HD video sources will only be recognized by the The HD Wave and require a special HD capture card. It is recommended that the “HD Broadcaster” be used on a computer with at least a Quad Core Processor for proper results.

Here is a short list of capture cards that we have tested with our Network and their compatibilities:

Eyepartner Inc. is the developer of such streaming video solutions as TikiLIVE and the recently released HD Wave broadcaster.  Eyepartner designs their software to require nothing more than an off-the-shelf computer and video source or camera. The software is user-friendly and makes Live Streaming accessible to businesses without the need for expensive proprietary broadcasting equipment.

KONK Broadcasting Network, KBN, a radio, television and internet broadcasting network out of Key West, Florida has recently joined Eyepartner’s client list.  In an effort to expand into the live-streaming internet market, KBN has created a TIkiLIVE HD broadcasting channel which can be viewed here: www.TIkiLIVE.com/show/KONKAM. The configuration includes a quality laptop, three HD webcams and a USB hub for accepting the video feeds.

“Since we’ve started using Eyepartner’s TikiLIVE we have found it to be easy to implement. The integration into the business model was simple and the channel looks great. KBN is growing and is looking to expand our involvement in the video broadcasting market and Eyepartner is helping us do that.” Says Guy deBoer, KBN Station Director.

“We’re excited about this channel and what KBN is doing because it illustrates the diversity of the clients we have. We hope others will see this as a way to extend their audience worldwide like KBN has done.  Streaming HD video during radio broadcasts is the wave of the future and a way to reach a global audience” says Tim Green, President of Eyepartner.

KBN makes use of the Channel Manager which is a standards based H.264 streaming solution that requires absolutely no proprietary hardware.  The software was designed to easily manage content timelines on the fly – in real time allowing the content producer to ingest LIVE breaking news or sponsored media spots at any moment. This also makes it easy to replay content during normally off-broadcasting hours.  Streaming content may be automatically recorded server side and edited with an easy to use drag-and-drop dashboard interface.  Channels can be produced in minutes and configured to broadcast HD streams 24 hours a day.

For video switching KBN uses 3rd party software, VIDBlaster. All three camera feeds are connected through a simple USB hub connected to a Laptop.  This allows for multi-camera real-time switching and editing. It enables novice or professional broadcasters to enhance their live shows by including transitions, overlays and video effects.

Eyepartner INC, the creators of TikiLIVE and The HD Wave, has just integrated the first Plug-and-Play Broadcasting Unit with their patent pending high definition streaming solution.  The broadcaster comes pre-installed with the HD Wave broadcasting software and is ready to start streaming a LIVE HD Video source as well as deliver a previously recorded or edited video as a LIVE stream.

Utilizing the plug-and-play HD broadcaster, Eyepartner has advanced their Turn-Key iPTV network solution, TikiLIVE, by giving a content producer a rack-mountable encoding unit that can be connected to a 480, 720p, 1080i and 1080p video sources.  A network simply needs to connect the unit to the video source as well as high speed internet connection and they can instantly stream their content to their audience.  The unit is 1U design rack mountable so it can easily be installed and stacked in your studio to support multiple channels for your network without having to invest in a major studio remodel.

The rack mounted broadcaster is perfect for OTT (over the top) iPTV deployments as it allows for both Multicast and Unicast configurations.  The streaming solution supports both Flash and H.264 video formats so it can be configured to be viewed on mobile devices, home computers as well as a set top box.

By integrating the Plug-and-Play Broadcaster a network manager enables their studios or content producers to have an out of the box solution for monetizing their content by getting their High Definition content online without having to purchase any additional hardware.  By streaming through the TikiLIVE network one can drastically increase their return on investment (ROI) by charging the audience for monthly subscriptions to view an entire channel, or charge for specific events by charging Pay Per View tickets.
