Supports HLS and DASH Streaming Protocols
Etere supports delivery optimized for HTTP Live Streaming (HLS), one of the most commonly used streaming formats for live videos. HLS also plays videos encoded with the H.264 and H.265 codecs. Moreover, Etere supports MPEG DASH (Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP), a standard for adaptive streaming over HTTP.

Deliver Video, Images, and Trailers to Streaming Platforms
Besides having good content discoverability, trailers play an important role in generating interest amongst potential audiences. Trailers are precise cuts of videos created to captivate audiences and improve viewing rates for a program. Etere includes the capability to generate, manage and deliver compelling trailers for OTT content. Operators can also insert trailer images to improve their promotional campaigns. Etere provides the most efficient software tools so that you can focus on creating and distributing compelling content.

MPEG Dash Files and Manifest
Etere automatically generates MPEG Dash Files and Manifest. Dash manifest breaks all the content of a file into a sequence of small segments served over HTTP. It contains all the information necessary to download and present content.

Web and PC Interfaces
Etere supports both web and PC platforms that efficiently manage the licensee, contract expiry, and payment management of your non-linear content from any location. The web interface is available from any web browser; all that you need is an internet connection.

Managing Encryption and Digital Rights Management (DRM)
Etere supports Digital Rights Management (DRM) which prevents unauthorized use and piracy of content, a prerequisite for many streaming platforms. DRM works by encrypting the content so that it cannot be read without a decryption key provided by a third party DRM platform that includes license servers. When a user tries to play a video, the video player requests a key from a license server. The server determines whether the user and device are authorized, before issuing a license response with a decryption key. The player can then decrypt and playback the content for the user. Etere features full compatibility with all the major DRM systems in the market, including Google, Apple and Mircosoft.

Automated and Customizable End-to-End Content Workflow Management
From ingestion to enrichment and distribution, Etere manages all your OTT workflows effectively. With the integrated Etere Resource Manager, you can generate orders, track tasks, monitor expenses and resources without switching screens. What makes the results so effective is the real-time updates, which allow task statuses and processes to be reflected in real-time. For example, ingest tasks can be assigned by workflow or manually. Once an operator takes up an assigned task, the task is no longer available to others. Furthermore, Etere integrates seamlessly with Active Directory to manage user authentication across multiple departments with cross-functions. Each user can be assigned a unique profile with rights assigned according to their stations and functions.

Protects your Content with Encryption
Etere integrates the automatic encryption of files before delivery to OTT platforms. This prevents unauthorized access including piracy, hacking and cyber attacks, which can compromise the revenue strategies of OTT platforms. File encryption masks data so that only authorized users can decrypt and access the file. Different keys are used to allow different class of services including SD, HD and 4K.
