1月时: Streaming poduction platforms add additional functionality the routing that we saw in Switchboard Live and other distribution platforms. It could be, again, overlays. It could be picture-in-picture. It could be stream insertion. But it's one step of functionality beyond what you get with the distribution platforms.
这是轻松的生活. Who is their typical customer? It's B2B, media, corporate, eSport. Why web service rather than the individual encoders? Bandwidth and hardware cost. Why our system rather than Wowza? Our system is easier and it's got additional features that Wowza doesn't have. It's also fully API-driven. If you want to approach it via an API as opposed to a UI, you can do that. They don't spend a lot of time talking about differentiating features, but you saw a lot of the features in the demo, and they offer different packages for pricing, 但是我们的第一个包裹, 如你所见, starts at $299 a month. They can pretty much reach every platform that you can reach through your RTMP output.
And then Groovy Gecko, this is a British company. They're kind of a full production shop. They do everything from the camera work to the platform. They seem mostly broadcaster, large corporation and brands. Not a lot of wonderful 信息. They basically think they're better than hardware because they give you a lot more engagement-oriented features that you can't get in a simple hardware encoder. 这是一种, if you boil down what it is they're saying about their product and their platform. Getting a little bit into the features that they offer, we saw some of this with Easy Live. They offer real-time clipping and DVR, yes. Graphics, text overlay, yes. 你能盈利吗?? 是的. 按次计费的,是的. Can you input from a smartphone? No. 你们提供DRM吗? 是的. 他们谈论, a very rich Facebook API that includes a question moderation system and live polling. So if you're looking for as much engagement as possible from your Facebook Live viewers, I think theirs is a good platform for considering.
How does their pricing work? They're a full-service producer, but they start at around £3,000元/次, and these are the different platforms that they can reach. They can reach Facebook Live via multiple Facebook Live pages and profiles simultaneously. Not all services can do that. YouTube Live in both standard and Live 360. 潜望镜,是的. They also have their own branded player, but they don't have a page in their service where people can go to views. They're not like Livestream in that respect.
