Join us on April 27 for the second WeStream meetup that will be whole focused on live streaming. 

You will get a sneak peek into how live streams are handled at Czech Television (Tomáš Leschak, iVysilani) and how we have set them at Showmax (Jakub Dušek, Encoding Team at Showmax). 

SHOWMAX LIVE STREAM FLOW
Jakub Dušek, , Encoding Team at Showmax

We offer a sneak peek into the Showmax setup of the live-stream flow. You will learn how we manage to stream live events in 4K, and how we stream to both mobiles and TV screens in a market where satellite dishes are still the norm. We will touch on the different experience of streaming video-on-demand content and live encoding and will close with final remarks on delivering the best possible user experience on any device and across all sub-saharan Africa.

You've been placed on the list. Thank you! 
We'll keep you posted about any news related to the meetup.

Join us on January 25 at 6pm in Pracovna (Prague, Žižkov).

You will hear more about our experience with African networks (presented by Radek Zajíc) and listen to a talk about streaming training and lectures by our guest speaker Petr Hodač.

Network situation in Africa (Radek Zajíc, Content Delivery Team Lead, Showmax)

Have you ever wondered what the African Internet infrastructure looks like? What is it like to run a content delivery network there? And manage it from Europe? Wonder no more! This talk will uncover some of the differences between European and African Internet infrastructure, the challenges of deploying infrastructure across the African continent, and the common troubles you may run into, should you ever want to offer video content to the users in Africa.

Streaming of Trainings and Lectures (Petr Hodač, The Streaming Guy at AVC.sh).

Don’t miss a chance to ask us about streaming the recent #FIFAWorldCup Qatar in 4K (ultra-high-definition), or about high-volume streaming – In November, when delivering our biggest broadcasting event yet, Showmax announced a 111% year-on-year growth.
The World Cup opening match was by far the most watched sports event in Showmax history and we managed to stream it flawlessly, just like the rest of the games!
Ok, it’s time to stop bragging…come to chat about all of it in person!
The capacity of the event is limited to 65 people. We will confirm your registration back. In case you will fall below the fold, you can still listen to the talks as the event will be streamed.
