veset launches prosumer cloud playout platform...simple platform for those 'prosumers',...

Veset Cirrus was developedto address the needs of OTTproviders looking to enabletheir non-traditional contentowners, such as niche sport,music and generalentertainment producers, tocreate linear TV channelswith a quick and easyplayout experience.

Veset Cirrus enables channelcreators and owners to self-manage their contentwithout facing thecomplexity of traditionalbroadcast playout systems.The end product is a professional-lookingchannel combining live streaming and pre-recorded content with simple broadcastgraphics.

Drag-and-drop and looping playlist capabilitiestake the hassle out of traditionally cumbersomeand time-consuming channel managementprocesses.

Gatis Gailis, Founder and CTO of Veset, said:“With the democratisation of video creation anddistribution through social networks we believethere is an important place for a new way oflaunching and managing 24⁄7 channels to bedistributed via OTT. What's needed is a verysimple platform for those 'prosumers', i.e.creatives who have neither the expertise nor theresources to manage complex and costlybroadcast structures but who nevertheless needto run their 24⁄7 channels to professionalstandards.”

Veset Cirrus will be integrated into FreedocastLive Streaming Platform by YuppTV.

This recently launchedplatform is designed as aone-stop-solution providingcloud transcoding andadaptive bitrate streamingfor best viewing experiencein low bandwidths, real-timeanalytics, viewerinteractivity with chatmoderation, ad-integration,pay-per-view, geo-blocking& password protection forcontrol of events.
