Live streaming to Youtube and Facebook
Today, we are going to share the success story of how we helped Nepal TV.
Nepal Television is the oldest and most watched television channel in Nepal. Today, only Nepal TV covers a great part of the country terrestrially with free service. In order to provide viewers with live streams of local events, Nepal TV needed an encoding solution.
Task
Implementation of live streaming for multiple platforms such as YouTube and Facebook at low bitrate.
Solution
Implementation of a transcoding system based on the Elecard CodecWorks encoder that receives video content from cameras, encodes it and further streams the video content to Youtube channel and other platforms.
An SDI signal is encoded into AVC and streamed via RTMP to Youtube and Facebook. Elecard RTMP filter makes it possible to easily set the required broadcasting parameters for social networks or websites such as Youtube. Parameters include a broadcasting address and a private key of the webpage where the stream is broadcasted. It enables effective streaming to the specified web-source without any other additional settings.
Result
- Live streaming of events and festivals on YouTube and Facebook
- Loyal viewers thanks to better video quality
- Increased Television Rating Point
- Quick product adoption into production
