ViewCast has released Niagara Pro II, its next-generation professional-grade encoding appliance designed for the expanding online video needs of broadcasters, studios, enterprises and Internet/network service providers.
Niagara Pro II captures, encodes and streams video and audio over the Internet and mobile networks for live viewing and video-on-demand applications. To meet the challenges of streaming globally to multiplatform audiences, the Niagara Pro II comes standard with ViewCast&apos;s Simulstream and Niagara SCXPro control and management software, which are preconfigured and ready-to-use.
Both applications allow users to manage their streaming workflow from a single Web interface and enable a single video source to be streamed simultaneously at multiple resolutions, at multiple data rates, and in a variety of streaming formats, including H.264, MPEG-4, Adobe Flash, Windows Media (Silverlight-compatible) and 3GPP/3GPP2 for mobile applications.
The Niagara 7500 simplifies the complex workflows associated with the transformation and delivery of HD video to IP and mobile networks.
