***Session Description
***Media has taken a unique approach to both over-the-top video delivery and video delivery to multiple screens in an effort to enable and offer the large scale, high quality and reasonable pricing of traditional broadcast TV to broadband and mobile networks. Using native and AMT Multicast (Automatic Multicast Tunneling),
this delivery method overcomes the traditional obstacles inherent in deploying multicast over best effort / unmanaged networks, which include network segments that do not support native multicast. This new video delivery technology provides a sustainable ecosystem for scaling linear broadcast over-the-top efficiently in the last mile over existing deployed capital infrastructure, as well as allowing for predictable cost models for linear broadcasters. The design objective is to reduce costs, improve quality and increase audience size capabilities, even above the quality levels achievable by current Adaptive Bit Rate technologies. The presentation speaks to the design decisions and tools selected to accomplish this***
