Interlacing issues are common with streaming providers. This is really one of my pet peeves especially when it occurs on high profile websites. With all of the video compression tools available today there’s no reason to see interlacing when your watching on-demand streaming content. The problem can be easily solved by deinterlacing or making exports from Non-linear editors progessive prior to encoding. If you’d like to learn more about the video compression process and how to deal with interlaced videos for streaming attend our 2-Day Video Streaming and Compression Training.

Generate Wowza Server Log Files Per Application. What’s great about Wowza as well as other Streaming Servers is the ability to create logs files to keep track of all of the activity happening on your server. What’s unique with the Wowza Media Server is you can create logging for specific applications. This means you can have all of your logs end up in their own specific folder. This way you can analyze logs and create reports based specifically on the various applications you’re providing on your Wowza Server. Attend one of our Wowza Media Server 2 Trainings to learn how to generate Wowza logs on an application basis.

Highwinds, a leader in content delivery, network and IP services, announced that its StrikeTracker console was selected as the winner in the Reporting and Analytics category of the 2010 Streaming Media Readers’ Choice Awards. This year’s winners of the influential annual awards for the European online video industry were announced yesterday at a reception during Streaming Media Europe in London.
“The finalists in the 2010 Streaming Media Readers’ Choice Awards are a real who’s-who of the online media industry, both in terms of established players and up-and-comers,” said Eric Schumacher-Rasmussen, editor of Streaming Media Magazine. “What’s most significant about these awards is that they’re the only ones voted on by the people who actually use these technologies and services every day. The fact that more than 3,400 voters cast more than 12,700 votes — meaning that, on average, each voter cast a vote in three or four categories — is a testament to the impact that these companies and their products have had on the lives and work of their customers.”
Highwinds was also announced as a finalist in the best Delivery Network category.
This is not the first time that Highwinds’ StrikeTracker has received recognition from Streaming Media. In 2009, the magazine selected the content management and reporting console as one of the top ten innovations in video streaming.
On Nov. 2, Streaming Media will announce the winners of the Streaming Media Readers’ Choice Awards (non-European edition) at Streaming Media West in Los Angeles. Highwinds was nominated in four categories for those awards:
1. Best Streaming Innovation 2010
2. Best Online Video Company 2010 – Technology
3. Global CDN
4. Reporting and Analytics Solution
