Brand new demos are coming your way
We’re so excited to chat with you and walk you through our newest demos.
Content protection
- Single-frame forensic watermarking: Discover our latest innovation against piracy and content leaks. Single-frame watermarking is our groundbreaking approach to protecting digital content at the production workflow. We watermark every frame of a video, image, or document and retrieve the information with one image.
- DRM for WebRTC with single-frame watermarking: Making WebRTC streams safer than ever! In collaboration with Red5Pro, we are introducing an additional security layer to DRM-protected WebRTC streams by incorporating our innovative single-frame watermarking technology.
- Live key rotation: We’re enhancing live streaming security in partnership with Wowza. Witness live key rotation powered by our renewed DRMtoday API for the Wowza Streaming Engine software.
- Widevine CAS & multi-DRM: Safeguarding your IPTV/DVB feeds has never been easier with DRMtoday for Widevine CAS, tailored for Android TV STBs. Also available through our leading DRM licensing solution for cross-platform OTT use cases.
Content playback
- New PRESTOplay telemetry: Deep dive into our new player telemetry solution for data monitoring and insightful reporting. Easily uncover error analytics and push remedial actions to improve your viewer’s experience.
- Hybrid player with lightning-fast channel zapping: Our powerful low-latency hybrid player delivers lightning-fast channel switching on OTT streams and frame-accurate switching between IPTV and OTT. We’ll demo PRESTOplay features on SDMC STBs and demonstrate how to improve Quality of Experience (QoE) in cooperation with our partners Ateme (booth #1.D33) and Broadpeak (booth #1.F76).
- Targeted TV advertising: Uncover the vast possibilities enabled by our OTT and IPTV dynamic ad insertion using CSAI, SSAI, and server-guided ad insertion (SGAI).
