Streaming Forum 2018 Keynote: Part 1 – Transcoding

In the lead up to the Streaming Forum 2018 conference, I wrote a series of five articles describing some of the challenges of reliably delivering a live streaming service at scale for millions of customers every day.

The first article about Transcoding was published on the Streaming Media Europe website on 14th December: Live Streaming at Sky: Streaming Forum Keynote Preview.

In short: why transcoding comes first in the live pipeline, and how those choices affect picture quality and scale when you deliver to millions of viewers.
