How to deliver True HD with Silverlight and Smooth Streaming

Learn how to deliver Web video with the quality and reliability of HDTV over HTTP. Dramatically increase viewing times and lower costs using this scalable online video delivery technology.

High Definition Web video has long been promised, but plagued by the quality of the video (either too small or too blurry) and the reliability of the playback (constant rebuffering or stuttering). These two variables are interrelated: increasing the quality requires higher bandwidth, and using less bandwidth to minimize re-buffering sacrifices video quality.

Smooth Streaming enables adaptive streaming of media and provides a high-quality viewing experience that scales massively on content distribution networks, making true HD 1080p media experiences a reality.

Smooth Streaming solves this issue by dynamically modifying the quality of the video stream based on available bandwidth and individual PC performance. This process is invisible to viewers; they just connect to the content and experience the best quality possible at all times.

During this webinar, you will learn about Smooth Streaming from two industry experts, who will teach you:

• What Smooth Streaming is and why it is the future of online video delivery
• How Smooth Streaming delivers HDTV-quality experiences over HTTP
• How it has been successfully implemented for major live events and on-demand content

Learn the end-to-end steps for delivering your content with Smooth Streaming. Register for the Webinar at: http://streamingmedia.com/webevents/register/?eventid=191&src=smb
