IBC TV goes mobile with EVS and Streambolico

EVS has enabled IBC TV to launch its first ever live streaming and VoD service available for mobile devices at this year’s IBC2015. Having powered IBC TV’s video production solutions for the seventh year in a row, EVS’ C-Cast technology is being used in conjunction with streaming specialists Streambolico to deliver multimedia content exclusively to golden pass holders at the show.

IBC TV Live gives viewers a live video streaming channel and on-demand content of recorded keynote presentations and news bulletins from the IBC2015 show floor. It’s available on both iOS and Android devices and can be used when connected to a Wi-Fi hotspot in the VIP Gold Pass Lounge.

The solution which is used to deliver content to the application uses both EVS’ cloud-based C-Cast platform to transport the VoD media and Streambolico’s CrowdWiFi streaming service to stream real-time multicast content over the high-density environment of the trade show. This multimedia delivery is integrated with IBC TV’s existing live production infrastructure which also relies on EVS solutions.
