What Are the Different Types of Streaming Media Services?

Streaming media refers to the form of media used to stream audio, video, and multimedia files over the network. Compared to the form of network playback viewed after downloading, the typical feature of streaming media is to compress continuous audio and video information and put it on a network server. Users can watch while downloading without waiting for the entire file to be downloaded. Because of the superiority of streaming media technology, this technology is widely used in video-on-demand, video conferencing, distance education, telemedicine and online live broadcast systems. As a sign of a new generation of Internet applications, streaming media technology has developed rapidly in recent years.

Streaming Media Server Product Overview

The P2P direct-on-demand system provides a video and audio stream distribution service installed on the server side. The system receives video and audio streams from the collection end, and forwards them through the P2P protocol and CDN network. It is transmitted to the client (mobile phone, tablet, computer, set-top box) through the media asset management system, content management system and website, and quickly establishes a set for customers Network video and audio direct-on-demand service.

Streaming Media Server Performance Advantage

1.Three -screen playback <br /> Support common browsers on the market, including IE, Firefox, Miyou, Google and other browsers.
Support smart terminal viewing. VJLive supports HLS protocol, and uses HTML5 language to realize online live streaming of IOS system and Android system mobile phone and set-top box platform.

2. Live time shifting <br /> Live streaming provides time shifting function, supports real-time playback in pure flash mode, automatically generates a program list, can watch any program at any time, breaks the traditional live broadcast viewing mode, and viewers no longer because they cannot play back Missed a live show.

3. High fluency <br /> Integrates HTTP, TCP, UDP (SUDP, RUDP) and gateway penetration module (UDP penetration and RPNP penetration) and global IP table, has extremely high data transmission and reception speed and single machine connection Number, which greatly guarantees the video playback quality under various definitions.
4. Broadcast-grade high-definition < br Supports multiple streaming protocols and encodings during live broadcasting, and can use high-definition and standard-definition code streams to achieve broadcast-level effects, including high-definition video formats including wmv / asf / wma / mp3 / rm / rmvb / flv and so on.
5. Complex network environment self-adaptation Adopt dynamic node adjustment strategies covering global IP table, operator's regional IP segment table, and support gateway penetration at all levels and gateway mapping for internal and external networks. At the same time, UDP and TCP transmission adaptive mechanisms are adopted. When UDP transmission is not available, it automatically switches to TCP transmission to ensure connectivity.
6. Client and CDN automatic storage <br /> viewers: The cache settings will automatically store the video and audio clips that have been viewed for P2P sharing to reduce the bandwidth pressure of operators.
Operators: Through the central video resource library, according to the click-through rate of on-demand server viewers, it automatically downloads popular video files for P2P distribution.
7. High-speed dragging

Using the original frame-level pre-cache reading technology, the viewer can seamlessly jump to the dragging place while dragging the video progress and immediately enjoy the cross-segment video.
8. Frame-level jump positioning <br /> Using the original VJVOD optimized encoding protocol, it can accurately jump to the time point in units of frames, and highly position to a picture that is more accurate than a second.
9. Rich resource distribution < br Use full video, private or third-party format video cache clips or encrypted content as on-demand media. You can also publish non-media files in any format and use them as a P2P file publishing system, such as SWF games.
10. Watch progress memory < br will provide a breakpoint memory function that can be set and re-developed, so that customers can continue to watch the program.
11. High-speed startup < br Through the HTTP protocol, optimized encoding module, and cluster link strategy, the video startup speed can be achieved on-demand, without requiring viewers to wait for a long time to start watching the video.
