1. Live/VOD Servers with Catch-up TV and Live Time Shift over HLS -- ATLAS Packaging Servers
The DVEO ATLAS Packaging Server Family is a cost-efficient way for smaller telcos and cable operators to deliver live and on-demand multi-bitrate IPTV and OTT services. The multichannel systems convert live or stored transport streams into adaptive bitrate (ABR) protocols such as HLS or DASH, for multiscreen delivery to set-top boxes, smart TVs, iPads, iPhones, and Android based devices. DVEO customers use ATLAS servers to deliver thousands of simultaneous HLS streams directly to Roku® players and iOS and Android devices.

All ATLAS systems feature server side ad insertion with HLS. The servers insert pre-encoded ads based on a schedule or with SCTE markers, and dynamically target ads to specific users based on their location. The systems also include Catch-up TV and live timeshift functionality (rewind/fast forward) over HLS.

ATLAS Packaging Servers are available in four different configurations.

  1. ATLAS III Packaging Server: TELCO streams live or VOD to up to 42,000 simultaneous users at 1 mbps.
  2. ATLAS II Packaging Server: TELCO streams live or VOD to up to 7,000 simultaneous users at 1 mbps. It is used for OTT television in a number of cities.
  3. ATLAS 1.5 Packaging Server is a 1 RU system that streams live or VOD to up to 700 simultaneous users at 1 mbps.
  4. ATLAS I Packaging Server streams live or VOD to up to 700 simultaneous users at 1 mbps. Only 7.5 inches wide, it is suitable for streaming special events.


2. UDP Packet Recovery Technology for Public or Private Internet -- DOZER ARQ
DVEO's DOZER ARQ (Automatic Repeat Request) Automated Packet Recovery technology ensures packet loss free real time video delivery over IP networks including wireless and the Internet. It automatically fixes UDP packet loss and achieves extremely high quality, low-latency, and error-free real-time video transport over IP. The patented algorithm alleviates video freezes, jitter, and noise over long distance IP transmissions. The DOZER technology is available as a software license -- the DOZER™ ARQ: LIC, a compact stand-alone product -- DOZERbox™ IP/IP + AES128, or a one RU system -- DOZER™ Racks IP/IP.

3. Telco Oriented High Availability Transcoders -- Brutus VI IP/IP: TELCO, and more
The DVEO Brutus product portfolio features Linux® based telco quality transcoders that deliver outstanding video quality and performance. The systems are ideal for simple transcoding or grooming at headends for OTT, mobile, and Telco TV multiscreen services.

The Brutus VI IP/IP: TELCO is an adaptive optimized transcoder. Typical real time H.264 transcodes benchmarks include 200 SD streams, or 75 each 720p60 streams, or 50 each 1080p/i streams. Other systems in the Brutus transcoder family serve anywhere from 20 to 160 SD streams out. Optional H.265/HEVC transcoding is available. With the optional ATLAS add-on, the systems support 1,000 RTMP, DASH, and/or HLS users natively.

4. Multichannel Transcoders with Built-in 8VSB Tuners -- Gearbox II

The Gearbox II 8VSB 16 Tuners/IP 80ch is a real time multichannel streamer, integrated RF receiver, and transcoder designed to receive up to sixteen 8VSB signals and transform them into IP streams that are optimized for streaming. Typical dedicated transcodes are up to 80 SD streams, or 20 1080i/p streams, or 30 720p60 streams. When combined with ATLAS server applications, the system creates an all-in-one video delivery system that creates DASH or HLS streams and sends them to viewers' OTT devices like Roku®. Gearbox II systems are available for all major video formats -- QAM, DVB-S-S2, etc. Optional H.265/HEVC transcoding is available.

5. Compact Low Latency H.264 Encoder/Archiver -- Spark-E II: Live + Record

A compact (5.9 inches) encoder and live streamer, the Spark-E II: Live + Record features a low latency of less than half a second. While most streaming devices accept just one video format, the Spark-E II encodes incoming 3G SDI HD-SDI, HDMI, VGA, or SD Analog (YPbPr or CVBS) video and audio (one input channel at a time) to one H.264 standard stream, records it, and outputs it to an IP network. The resulting stream can be viewed with standard transport stream compatible set-top boxes or software clients such as VideoLAN VLC or JW Player. Operators can stream video content to YouTube® or Facebook®, or to CDNs and websites like Ustream®, Akamai®, Octoshape™, Verizon®, etc. The IP video stream can also be simultaneously recorded onto a USB stick for archives or later playback.
