How does VideoSpace do live streaming?
Typically, if you have an event, chances are you would have hired a camera team to record the event. With Videospace, all you need is a good internet connection (at the event) and you can leave the rest to us. We will take care of the rest, from video production to video conversion to security to a dedicated video player and page for your live stream. While it sounds simple, the beauty of Videospace is that we can customise almost everything to your specific needs.
The following diagram shows the major parts of the Videospace platform that are involved in Live Streaming workflow where a dedicated channel is enabled for your event.
HOW different is VideoSpace vs youtube?
We get quite a lot of this question. The short, one word answer is - Control.
The platform that you will be using is the same platform that hosted the Olympics in 2012 (London), 2014 (Sochi) and 2016 (Rio). In short, it is a world class media platform.
Other than the platform, you also have a choice of engaging us for the entire video production (from camera crew and equipment) to our Live stream platform. You can download a brief comparison here.
Is there any delay (Latency) in the live stream?
With good end-to-end internet connectivity, the latency is typically between 15 to 30 secs. However, if your viewers' internet bandwidth is limited, we can expect delay up to a minute.
DO we need a video crew?
Absolutely! Think of this as a live broadcast to the world. A good video crew makes a world of difference!
Can we hire our own video crew?
Sure! However, we would need to ensure that their equipment is up-to-spec for live streaming.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
There are many variables like “How many people is going to watch?”, “How long is the event?”, etc. So it really varies as each event is unique. For a no-obligations quote, please CONTACT US.
IS there a viewership limit?
No. However, if you are expecting a large viewership, it would be good to inform us prior so we can cater to any surges.
Can you cater to a worldwide audience?
Absolutely! We are able to deploy numbers of servers worldwide and have CDNs (Content Distribution Network) around the world simply for this purpose!
Can we get a recording of the live stream?
