Stream Server is a professional live broadcasting application with enterprise-level features and functionality at a low price. The standalone application employs proprietary cooperative multicast technology, the core of Neokast’s business, to deliver substantial cost savings and scalability to online broadcasters. Neokast developed the software for the purpose of delivering the industry’s most secure, reliable and cost-effective solution for streaming live video content over the Internet.

Stream Server highlights:

• Software is easily downloaded and enables publishers to begin streaming right away
• No limitation on bandwidth or the number of viewers
• No built-in constraints on bit rates or video resolution
• Advanced viewer statistics and analytics available through online portal
• Real-time, continuous feedback on stream quality and viewer experience
• Automated error reporting to both the publisher and Neokast Customer Support

Stream Server enables businesses, website owners and bloggers to create 24/7 channels of live streaming video, broadcast special events, shows and concerts, and manage libraries of content to be streamed live over the Internet. Neokast provides an end-to-end solution and offers tiered bandwidth support packages. There are no upfront charges or costly long-term commitments.

Best of all, Neokast is currently offering a FREE 30-day trial of Stream Server, which users can sign up for entirely online. Simply sign up, download the software and start streaming! Content publishers that are interested in taking advantage of this offer can do so online by registering at neokast.com.

Email streamserver@neokast.com if you have any questions about Stream Server or the free trial.

On Wednesday, April 9th, the Olympic Torch will be run in San Francisco at the Embarcadero from 1pm to about 4pm PST. No direct link to the page showing the stream is available at this time,  so please go to www.kron.com on Wednesday to find exclusive live coverage of the events.

Expect the website to continue to evolve over the coming weeks and months. We have some big designs for delivering the greatest live online broadcast experience on the planet, and as always we gladly welcome your suggestions and feedback at questions@neokast.com.

We are also excited to be fully supporting Firefox users now! In the next week we should have added Safari and Opera support making our Stream Player fully compatible with all of the major web browsers.

The next milestone in our development will be the release of a “lite” Stream Player with no .net requirement and an ultra fast installation time. This is also going to be released next week so be sure to update your current player when prompted. Looking further ahead, we are investing a lot of resources into delivering full Mac support and have made it a top priority of ours. 

Thanks for visiting and please stay tuned for many more developments to come!

Video Professionals: use the Neokast Stream Server software to enhance your already existing services. Do you have a knack for encoding and working with the “big time” cameras? We allow you to live encode with the best codecs out there with minimal hassle and overhead.  You are then able to stream out video the way you produced it with no sacrifices in quality.

Wireless Internet Providers: add Neokast Stream Server software to your list of services. If you are supplying a large amount of wireless bandwidth to your client, they probably aren’t using it for email and web surfing - they are using it to push a lot of data. These days, it’s usually video content uploaded to a server for people to download later. Why have people download content when you can stream it to them in the form of a live broadcast? We are one of the few companies out there that play well with emerging wireless Internet technologies.  

Web Professionals: tie in the video production and Internet parts of streaming and enable the end user to watch pristine streams. If you go to the Neokast website and view a stream right now, you will see a new ‘customize’ option that provides a variety of stream embedding options. Set up your site for pay-per-view and monetize your Neokast streams!

Without Neokast technology, you can go on local news affiliate websites and see a few flash video clips. Those video clips are more of a novelty than a real advancement in live Internet broadcasting, an advancement we predicted we would acheive one year ago.

We are now fully prepared to deliver live Internet broadcasts to every local news affiliate in the United States and beyond. The Neokast Stream Server Software enables anyone in the world to create their own 24/7 channels of live or archived content.

 Our list of customers is quite diverse and is increasing exponentially.  Many of our clients are actively monetizing their content. Their streams are hidden for viewing on the Neokast website for this reason. The streams are viewable on their site on a subscription basis. Since they are the producer of their content, they have complete control over who does and does not get to view their live broadcasts.

Stream Server is an incredibly versatile product. It latches onto any live encoded signal and injects it into the Neokast Media Network. This feature enables anyone to create 24/7 live broadcasts of live or prerecorded content. The broadcasts, if given public access by the publisher, go immediately on the Neokast website. The publisher then has the option to embed the Neokast player on their website. In other words, they publisher then has the option to monetize that content and create a new business out of it!
