Voices of Video ·

2026/01/15

What if live video could be small, cool, and endlessly reliable, whether you’re in an OB van, an operating room, or a rail yard? We take you from the edge to the cloud and back again, showing how compact encoders and long-life servers turn constrained spaces and tight power budgets into stable streams that scale. We start with the hardware philosophy: low-power, high-density edge devices built for contribution and return feeds, paired with modular servers designed to run for up to a decade. Y...

The promise of “just add AI” sounds great until your live feed is eight seconds behind and the subtitles miss the moment. In this episode of Voices of Video, we confront the gap between AI hype and broadcast reality. From FFmpeg 8’s Whisper integration to off-the-shelf transcription and auto-dubbing, we break down why demos often fall apart in real production pipelines, and what it actually takes to deliver broadcast-grade results. 🔗 FFmpeg: https://ffmpeg.org 🔗 Whisper (OpenAI):

What if your live stream could feel instant, look sharper at the same bitrate, and cost less to run as you scale? In this episode of Voices of Video, we unpack how a fast-growing live gaming platform rethought its architecture, moved beyond a fully public cloud setup, and built a global hybrid model that delivered measurable results: lower egress spend, higher transcoding density, and a clear lead in end-to-end latency. We start with a hard truth many streaming teams face too late - public cl...

Tired of choosing between ripping out your video stack or standing still? In this episode, Kenneth Robinson, Director of Field Application Engineers at NETINT, walks through a practical playbook for deploying Video Processing Units (VPUs) at any stage of growth - from retrofitting a live server to scaling across edge, cloud, and hybrid environments. We start with hardware options that match real-world use cases: • T1U hot-swap modules that slide into existing servers - no downtime requi...

Cameras miss moments; fans don’t. We wanted every decisive peek, every clutch revive, and every chaotic final ring in Apex Legends to be watchable from any team’s perspective - live, synchronized, and affordable. That meant rethinking how we transcode and distribute dozens of POV streams at once without drowning in startup lag or compute spend. We walk through how Scalstrm integrated NETINT VPUs at a low level to pack up to 20 live channels onto a single card, slashing both costs and boot tim...

What if your heaviest video jobs spun up in seconds, sipped power, and scaled wherever your viewers are? In this episode, we run NETINT VPUs inside Akamai Cloud and push them across live and just-in-time workflows—multi-codec ABR (AV1/H.264/HEVC), synchronization, DRM, and low-latency packaging included. We start with deployment trade-offs: on-prem cards (control like a tuned sports car), cloud resources (on-demand like a taxi), portable containers, and Kubernetes for orchestration and autosc...
