Intinor's Direkt encoders to Add a User-Configurable Delay

Intinor adds user-configured distribution delay.

FREMONT, CA: Intinor, Sweden's pioneering developer of products and solutions for high-quality video over the internet, adds a user-configurable delay to its Direkt encoders for streaming video distribution. The latest functionality is in response to requests from esports firms, but the potential to add delays to individual destinations from the same software encoder is valuable in various applications.

Leveraging the simple web interface, users can set delays for each destination, up to a maximum decided by the amount of memory in the encoder, but some hundreds of seconds. The original request from esports producers was to serve premium customers first, with others receiving a delayed signal.

The potential to delay each output individually also means that signals could be synchronized to remote commentary applications. This may also be essential for betting applications to ensure every subscriber is fairly treated. Intinor encoding and distribution have become a market pioneer in streaming, not least in the esports market. In talking to the customers, it became clear that the potential to dial in delay was required, so the firm is pleased to add the functionality. It looks forward to seeing what other applications the users find for it.
