Inlet Technologies, the leader in advanced encoding solutions for new media, announced that it has introduced two new additions to its Spinnaker streaming media family of products. These new versions of the Spinnaker streaming appliance target any organization looking to stream live content to the Internet and desiring a high-quality experience for their viewers.The two new Spinnaker models support either the Windows/VC1 or Flash/VP6 format and are available for only $4995. They provide the same network manageability, advanced features such as closed captioning and remote scheduling, intuitive, web-based user interface, and reputation that have caused many large media companies to standardize on the Spinnaker family, but are now available at a lower price point.
"Spinnaker is one of the key driving forces behind innovative digital media strategies for many organizations such as MLB Advanced Media, Home Shopping Network (HSN), MTV Networks, Heritage Auctions, and others," said Neal Page, Inlet CEO. "Now, any professional organization can provide the same kind of high quality, live event content to the Internet as these industry leaders."
These latest additions to the Spinnaker family also provide other standard features including best-in-class advanced encoding capabilities, SDI and analog inputs, job scheduling, SNMP management, multiple language support and more.
"We tested many other solutions before choosing Inlet's Spinnaker," said Brian Carpenter, Director of IT for Heritage Auction Galleries. "It's one of the best tools on the market for streaming media today."
Available in a variety of configurations, the Spinnaker family provides price/performance options for a wide range of delivery requirements to help programmers reach new audiences over new media networks. Each Spinnaker model delivers the bandwidth performance and unique features necessary to provide a true broadcast experience over any IP network. Spinnaker's powerful encoding engine makes it an ideal solution for streaming live events to the Internet.
