IRVINE, Calif., Sept. 17, 2015 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- AllDigital today announces immediate availability of AllDigital Brevity for Video Platforms, which includes ready-to-run integration with global network provider Level 3 Communications, Inc. and the customizable video solution, JW Player.
AllDigital for Video Platforms gives content owners and publishers automated workflows to upload more than 300 professional video CODECs at industry-leading speeds. While uploading videos, the system analyzes the media to optimize it for global delivery across the Level 3 network with playback via the latest generation of the JW Player.
Media customers will find a comprehensive feature set for both live and on-demand media that includes dynamic encryption and playback of premium content. For advertising-supported models, key IAB standards including VPAID, VAST, VMAP and Google IMA are ready to deploy. For subscription video, on-demand, end-to-end encryption enables quick onboarding for premium rights holders.
"This feels like 2004, when we launched one of the first commercial services for ad-supported streaming at a time when the industry was frustrated by multiple video players, poor video quality, and plenty of companies making big promises, but not delivering the goods," says Tim Napoleon, AllDigital's Chief Strategist. "2015 is a clear inflection point for online content monetization, and the timing is ideal to introduce AllDigital for Video Platforms into the digital media ecosystem. Our solution helps to level the playing field for Internet broadcasters by providing a cost effective, end-to-end solution to rapidly deliver high quality video across mobile, desktop and connected televisions."
"Our collaboration with members of the AllDigital team go back to the early days of JW Player, when we powered the original YouTube video player," said JW Player Co-Founder and Creator Jeroen Wijering. "Fast forward to 2015, JW Player now powers more than 15 billion monthly streams. In terms of revenue for media organizations, digital is no longer the sidecar, it is the motorcycle. Video and playback of the video in a trusted and proven solution is central to any digital strategy."
