Brightcove Video Cloud Powers Fast, Optimised Video Online

Video Cloud’s tools are designed to scale workflows to match requirements, control time-to-live for content and measure the impact of video content. It is used by publishers, broadcasters and other distributors that want to reach audiences across various devices and understand viewers' use of different platforms, to propagate their brands.

Video Cloud incorporates the most recent version of the Brightcovevideo player, which optimises the viewer experience on all screens with HTML5 playback. The software’s faster upload module, shorter time to first frame, folders, HTML5 UI and role-based permissions support workflows that improve content management and control. Video can be published at any time.

Interest inHTML5players is not only based on speed, light weight and managing, but also on theconsistent experienceon every device, operating system and browser. Because HTML5 is native to web browsers, they are already designed to load the player. Also, the new Brightcove player supportsHLS [HTTP live streaming] Everywhereto iOS and Android devices, and to all desktop and tablet browsers. This is significant because to support true mobile video, a player must be built to deliver HTTP Adaptive Streaming that will playback video when bandwidth and connection speed is limited.
