Live streaming integration

Are you a software developer, hardware manufacturer or solution integrator?


Your product deals with live audio / video and you need to add a streaming capability?
Our answer: Integrate and distribute Unreal Media Server with your product.

"The Siemens "e-document"

Unreal Media Server and
about the same amount of

Near real-time, low latency streaming


For latency-sensitive applications such as conferencing and surveillance, Unreal Media Server is optimized to have a below second
end-to-end latency.

Multi-format streaming
The same h.264/AAC stream coming from your live camera / encoder, can be served at the same time to web-based HTML5, Flash
players, iOS devices, set-top boxes, Silverlight and Unreal media players.

Unmanned, automated operation


Unreal Media, Live and Archival servers run as a Windows services. Once you have configured the system, no manual interaction
is needed; you don't need to manually start encoding, recording or streaming. The servers encode, stream and record only when
viewers or recording clients are active. Recording can be scheduled to run automatically.

Rich SDK to configure and automate the system
Unreal Media, Live and Archival servers expose extensive COM API for
applications that allows full programmatic configuration and control.

Seamless integration with your existing A/V sources


All your existing A/V sources can feed streams to Unreal Media and
Archival servers. RTSP IP cameras / encoders or MPEG2-TS broadcast-
ing equipment can serve streams directly to Unreal Media Server over
IP. For computer-based video acquisition such as USB cameras
or your own custom application, you can use Unreal Live Server: a
software live encoder that will send the encoded A/V to Unreal Media Server.

What do you do if you need to add a streaming capability into your product or solution?
There are many ways to solve the problem.
Develop your own from scratch? Reinventing the wheel is definitely the way to go :)
Use open source, buggy source code? Mostly non-optimized, not state-of-the-art code which you will need to debug and fix.
Use hosted service? This way you upload your original audio / video stream to Internet-hosted streaming server. Hosting charges, lack of
control and other issues.
Use streaming libraries and SDKs? Most SDKs only solve part of the problem: they will encode video or encapsulate it in the right streaming
format, but you still need to send it yourself. Some of them will also send it, but there are multiple issues you need to take care of. Does the
3-rd party library use separate threads to send? How does it call you callbacks? What if 3-rd party library code blocks or crashes, bringing
your whole application down? If your application deals with video frames, is it a good idea to stream these frames directly from your
application, making calls to 3-rd party library for every video frame?
Wouldn't you prefer to provide an original audio / video signal to a standalone high performance streaming server (or encoder that sends it to
server) that runs silently on the same computer and performs the streaming task independently of your application?
