Unas Media Productions expands live multiscreen streaming with Digital Rapids

Unas Media Productions, the Austria-based video production company within Sportsman Media Holding, has expanded its streaming operations with the purchase of eight dual-channel StreamZ Live 4000EX multiscreen encoders from Digital Rapids. The new encoders extend Unas Media Productions’ existing deployment of over 30 encoding channels powered by Digital Rapids systems. The encoders are used to transform source video and audio of premium content including high-profile, live sporting events into multiple output formats for distribution to a global audience on a variety of online and mobile platforms.

“We have had tremendous success with Digital Rapids’ encoding systems and have been very pleased with their performance, from their ability to efficiently create many profiles and formats from each input to their outstanding output quality,” said David Schartner, CTO at Unas Media Productions. “The new StreamZ Live 4000EX models build further on these strengths with enhanced stream management control and an intuitive new user interface.”

“We’re delighted that Unas Media Productions has selected StreamZ Live 4000EX encoders for the expansion of their live streaming operations,” said Clive Vickery, Managing Director, EMEA and Asia at Digital Rapids. “Unas has been at the forefront in generating new revenue opportunities and business growth through online and mobile video, and we’re proud that the benefits of our solutions have helped enable their success.”
