World's Leading Professional-Quality, Software-Based Encoder for Live Web and Mobile Streaming Fully Compatible with New Features in Adobe Flash Media Server 4 Software
Kulabyte Corporation, the world's leader in live high-quality HD video streaming, has extended its encoder integration to include the new features of Adobe® Flash® Media Server 4 software. After evaluating Adobe Flash Media Server 4 with XStream Live encoders for the past several months, Kulabyte's current and future products will fully support all of the exciting new features in Flash Media Server 4, including Absolute Timecode, HTTP-segmenting, IP Multicast and RTMFP (peer-assisted networking).
"We recognize Adobe Flash as the leading platform for live streaming video," said Chris Gottschalk, Kulabyte's CTO. "Adobe's (NASDAQ: ADBE) support for new streaming infrastructure like IP Multicast and RTMFP strengthens our combined product offering, making our solutions more attractive to the medium and large scale enterprises that are our core customers. When we combine these new delivery options with Kulabyte's native HTTP segmenting and direct output for Adaptive Bitrate Streaming to iPhone, iPad and other non-Flash products, the Kulabyte, Flash Media Server 4 combination packs a lot of punch."
"We've been working closely with leading companies to provide strong delivery options - including HTTP dynamic streaming, IP Multicast and P2P - to dramatically scale live video on public and private networks," said Kevin Towes, senior product manager for Flash Media Server at Adobe (ADBE). "With support for new features in Flash Media Server 4, including Absolute Timecode, HTTP-segmenting, IP Multicast and RTMFP, Kulabyte is bringing live HD streaming video to a broad range of customers that can now deliver engaging applications or large scale streaming events at lower costs. With this kind of integration, our customers have a complete solution."
"Kulabyte's XStream Live products are known for their superior video quality and bitrate control," said Peter Forman, Kulabyte's Chairman and CEO. "There are a number of HD-capable video encoding solutions to choose from, but Kulabyte encoders provide great HD video with unparalleled quality and flexibility and support iPhone video streaming in a wide range of system form factors. All of our advanced encoding capabilities are now available for streaming via Adobe Flash Media Server 4."
