Cost-Effective and Efficient Live Streaming Solution for Freely Platform
JWP MEETS THE EVERYONE TV FREELY STANDARD
- ITV Ingest: ITV’s existing linear primary and backup channel was ingested into the redundant JWP platform and automatically converted into the Freely format.
- DVB DASH Delivery: JWP’s Broadcast Live platform provided live multi-bitrate encoding, then stored and packaged the live streams into Freely approved DVB DASH format for IP delivery.
- Content Protection: JWP’s Studio DRM was configured to comply with Freely approved formats for secure delivery of ITV content across all platforms.
- Delivery: JWP currently supports 23 channels and 23 redundant channels for ITV with plenty of room for growth.
- Testing: The JWP team fully prepared streams that adhered to the Freely specification including, but not limited to, DRM, subtitling, metadata, accessibility, and DVR.
”The team at JWP were open to working with us on how to solve for the specific requirements of the Freely platform. Especially when it came to IP delivery in DVB DASH and Freely specific content protection. Moreover, the JWP team were very collaborative in terms of providing key technical resources and testing throughout the development process. With JWP, we have built a service that is not only future proofed but also delivers our content securely across all Freely devices.
