Ways To Use On-Demand Streaming

1. Let’s talk about…… ON DEMAND STREAMING

2. WHAT IS ON DEMAND VIDEO? Now, it's been years that almost all the viewers around the globe have started watching videos about different fields. The Internet certainly has played the key role in streaming videos to the viewers. With an advent of devices and technology, the process has eased like never before. If you're unaware of the concept called video on demand, then you are at right place.

4. 1) Progressive Download Viewers get original streaming of audiovisual content through the method called HTTP streaming. The downloaded video would be temporarily saved on the computer for you to watch it. It cannot jump ahead in timeline as it is linear in nature. The video that has been buffered is played online as a playback and rest of the download goes on simultaneously in the background. It helps you to watch the videos without interruption………………………..

5. 1) Progressive Download Videos streamed using this method have single bit-rate. No matter, which kind of connection you belong to; only single video file is delivered at a time. After completion of downloading, all the viewers can watch the video in whatever bit-rate it has been encoded. Content-provider at this moment funds for the aggregate bandwidth since the entire video is downloaded. The major advantage of using this streaming method is you need not download any particular software or server to use it. 5

6. 2) Streaming Protocol Progressive download takes place using different types of protocols that are exclusively designed for streaming with a particular mechanism. They are Real Time Messaging Protocol (RTMP) and Real Time Streaming Protocol (RTSP). RTMP discharges media streaming in pieces. Whereas, progressive download uses HTTP to send media files. This method proves to be beneficial because a video is not downloaded on the system that you have….. (Streaming Ahead…………………) 6

7. 2) Streaming Protocol As per player settings, the video is transferred in pieces. Once all the chunks are played, data is automatically deleted by the player. Hence, content duplication over the hard drive of the computer is easily inhibited. Interestingly, there's one more benefit for you. You can easily play the video. As per your choice you can send the request to the streaming server using the player. Accordingly, you will get appropriate chunks belonging to the most relevant category.. Even though video streaming is offered at single bit-rate, lots of players also provide an opportunity to the viewers to change the bit-rate. 7

8. 3) Adaptive Bit Rate Streaming This perhaps could be the latest technology executed to stream the videos. Videos are delivered over HTTP, but at the same time, UDP too can be used for streaming at different bit rates. Based on your location, contemporary local network provision, and computing resources, bit rates of streamed content can vary. (Streaming Ahead…………..) 8

9. 3) Adaptive Bit Rate Streaming Adaptive Bit rate Streaming operations is as follows: ● Files encoded for by video generator at different bit-rates. ● Viewer's video player observes networking and computing capabilities to finalize the most compatible bit-rate. ● The viewer can enjoy streaming without any hassles at best possible quality depending upon the conditions. Looking the dynamism and applicability of this method, you can easily find major corporate firms in the world using it for their streaming purposes. 9
