IBC 2012Elemental is visiting four continents in the next thirty days, so the world has a great chance to see us this fall. Connect with Elemental at an upcoming industry event if you missed IBC last month or haven’t visited with us lately. In the next few months, the Elemental team brings hands-on demonstrations of its solutions to cities all over the world, including our newest products, Elemental Stream and Elemental Cloud. Elemental executives are also speaking on panels to the latest in multiscreen video streaming in Hong Kong, Los Angeles, New York and London. Have you made an appointment to see us?

Shows are worth the trip. Since most video workflows have at least one unique feature, attendees can save time by asking Elemental representatives questions about streaming media to smart phones, tablets and PCs and get fast answers. At a trade show, our team can talk through your specific challenges and demonstrate the advantages of video processing solutions from Elemental. We have deep experience helping companies like HBO, Comcast and the BBC deploy video infrastructure to deliver premium content and live events to new media platforms quickly and reliably.

IBC 2011 - It's a Wrap

IBC logoWe’re winding down at IBC today. What a show! The multi-screen experience was the pervasive theme at the RAI this year. And Elemental’s booth was abuzz with excitement. Only a few short months since our initial launch in the EMEA region, the Elemental team is humbled by the attention we received at this year’s event.

What became clear to us throughout the show was the passion our customers have for their business and how Elemental’s solutions and support are a key ingredient in their successful evolution to multi-screen video delivery. Customers and prospects alike stopped by to discuss the opportunities they see in new media and the challenges they know Elemental is best positioned to help them address.  

But, most of all, we saw customers grateful to put a name to a face, thank us for our tireless support of their high profile projects, and give us further encouragement as we continue to put them at the center of all we do. The two-way, unfiltered, and passionate feedback experienced at IBC serves as a great motivator for us. So here’s to continued success: to our partners, to our customers, and to all things multi-screen.

IBC is quickly approaching and Elemental is preparing to exhibit and present at this key industry event, held each September in Amsterdam. We are bringing our complete product lineup to this year’s show to demonstrate the industry’s foremost adaptive bit rate multi-screen video delivery.

On the show floor, Elemental will provide an exclusive look at features and applications geared toward content programmers, solution providers and broadcasters. Demonstration highlights include live video streaming with ad insertion and programmable image overlay. We’re particularly excited to show attendees dynamically changing graphics in a live output stream – and integrating Twitter to do it!

Visitors to Elemental’s stand at IBC can live tweet using a variety of hashtags (#IBC11, #multiscreen, #elemental) and see Elemental Live burn that image into its output stream within mere seconds! Come see your live tweets at Elemental’s stand in a terrific demonstration of image overlay that can be used in real-world applications for video branding, tracking and spoiling.

Reporting Live from IBC: Creating a Live 3D Experience with Microsoft Smooth Streaming

Submitted by Lisa on September 10, 2010 - 14:32

Media Multiplied IBC SamAt IBC 2010, Elemental is showing Elemental Live in a Microsoft Smooth Streaming 3D workflow. This is the world’s first demonstration of live 3D Smooth Streaming over the Internet at broadcast quality 1080p. Not only can the demo be viewed on the show floor in the Elemental and Microsoft stands, it can be accessed worldwide from this online Microsoft Silverlight 3D Player.

Live streaming 3D content originating from TVN Group in Hamburg, Germany can be viewed through the Silverlight player available on the site. Requirements for 3D viewing include Internet Explorer and an NVIDIA 3D Vision Kit. Without these items, remote viewers can still see live streaming content in a side-by-side view through a web browser on a variety of display devices.

In this workflow, the Elemental Live system deinterlaces a live 3D television source at 1080i/50Hz via a single HD/SDI input. Seven outputs are converted and streamed in real time over a 30 Mbps uplink to a Microsoft IIS server and over the Level 3 content delivery network. Outputs include 1080p, 960p, 720p, 540p and 480p streams, providing a broad range of resolutions and bit rates for Silverlight client devices. All streams are encoded simultaneously using a single Elemental Live system. By delivering streams via Microsoft Smooth Streaming, automatic adpative bit rate stream switching delivers a seamless viewing experience to the audience regardless of network and bandwidth conditions.
