connecting Seven.One Entertainment Group Schweiz AG to transcoded TV broadcast
With Netstream’s signal transmission solution, Joyn ensures reliable, high-performance transmission of its live TV channels.
Challenge
Seven.One Entertainment Group Schweiz AG is one of the leading providers of moving images in Switzerland. With its streaming service Joyn, it offers an innovative platform that combines live TV and on-demand content – completely free of charge. To ensure that the content is available in the best quality at all times, Joyn needed a powerful, reliable and flexible signal transmission solution.
Netstream supports us as a service partner for our streaming platform Joyn in Switzerland. As a Netstream customer, we can confirm that Netstream has supported us very well in every respect with its quick responsiveness and competent support. Netstream played a major part in launching Joyn on schedule and in ensuring that Joyn runs smoothly. We sincerely thank Netstream for this and look forward to continuing our collaboration.
Approach
To meet Joyn’s specific requirements, the collaboration started with a detailed kick-off meeting in which the framework conditions and technical requirements were defined. In close coordination with the Joyn team, we developed a tailor-made signal transmission solution that could be seamlessly integrated into the existing infrastructure.
Throughout the entire implementation process, we placed particular emphasis on fast and flexible delivery. The Joyn team particularly appreciated our quick response time, which made it possible to make adjustments promptly and keep to the project timeline. Clear communication and a solution-oriented way of working were also highlighted as particularly valuable.
According to Joyn, the collaboration with Netstream was characterised by professionalism and a partnership-based approach, which made the implementation of the technical requirements efficient and smooth.
Solution
Netstream ensures the signal transmission of the live TV channels for Joyn. The signals are received from all over the world via the Netstream headend, transcoded and transmitted to Joyn’s infrastructure via HLS push.
The TV channels are transmitted redundantly via two separate delivery paths to ensure high availability.
Advantages
- High-performance and redundant signal transmission
- Direct 10 Gbit/s connection for maximum stability and low latency
