Adaptive Streaming

Adaptive streaming is a method of delivering videos that automatically modifies the quality of a broadcast in real time according to the viewer’s device capabilities, network conditions, and internet connection speed. This guarantees a buffer-free and interruption-free playback experience

How It Works:

Adaptive streaming divides a video into manageable segments and encodes it into several quality levels, in contrast to conventional video streaming techniques that send a single video file. Protocols such as Microsoft Smooth Streaming, Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (DASH), and HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) are used to deliver these segments.
The player chooses the best quality stream that can be delivered without buffering when the user begins watching a video by determining the available bandwidth. To ensure a continuous viewing experience, the player automatically switches between several quality settings if the network state changes while the video is being played

Key Benefits:

(i)Decreased Buffering: Streams automatically adapt to the current state of the network.
(ii)Device optimization: Provides material that is specific to each user’s device’s capabilities and resolution.
(iii)Better User Experience: Guarantees steady and dependable video playback despite erratic internet rates.

Use Cases:

OTT platforms, live sports broadcasts, corporate video hosting, eLearning platforms, and video-on-demand (VOD) services—where a smooth viewing experience is essential—all make extensive use of adaptive streaming.

Popular Protocols:

Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (MPEG-DASH) and HTTP Live Streaming (HLS)
seamless streaming

Introducing TrueComply: Scaling Video Compliance with AI Automation
Introducing TrueComply: Scaling Video Compliance with AI Automation

Video compliance has always been a critical requirement for broadcasters—and today, OTT platforms, streaming services, and enterprise video teams face the same challenge at a much larger scale.

Every video must pass compliance checks before release. And whenever regulations or platform policies change, entire video libraries need to be revalidated. Manual reviews make this slow, expensive, and error-prone, often delaying launches and increasing operational risk.

 

This webinar introduces TrueComply, an AI-powered compliance engine that automates video reviews, validations, and required compliance edits—helping teams keep content compliant continuously and at scale.

What this Webinar will Cover:

 

  1. Why Video Compliance Is Breaking at Scale
    The limitations of manual reviews, spreadsheets, and region-by-region workflows.

  2. How AI Is Transforming Compliance Operations
    Using automation to flag risks, enforce rules, and reduce dependency on human moderation without compromising accuracy.

  3. Inside TrueComply: How It Works
    A practical demo of how TrueComply centralizes compliance management, automates checks, creates detailed reports, and scales across regions and content types.

  4. Real-World Use Cases
