Virtual Event Streaming

STREAMING

Sell on demand video, live event streaming, or offer true hybrid in person + live stream events with our cinema quality event streaming system.

Core Features

Video on Demand (VOD)

Fast, 1080p HD quality streaming in the best bit rate for several different device sizes and connection speed.  So your customers access to content when they want.

Live event streaming

Set up a live stream event, and connect any RTMP source (for example Zoom or Open Broadcast Software) to broadcast straight to your customers that have purchased.

In person event + VOD/Live event streaming

A true hybrid model – your event can be sold with either a ticket for in person attendance, or as a price which allows access to live event streaming or on demand video.  In short, great for fans of shows or screenings who can’t easily attend in person.
