SM East Show: Understanding Adaptive Bitrate Technology And HTTP Video Delivery

Adaptive bitrate encoding methods are gaining traction in the industry as Apple, Adobe and Microsoft have all recently started offering new ways to encode and deliver video, including via HTTP. But what does that mean for the average content owner who is trying to figure out the best way to improve the viewing experience?

At the Streaming Media East show on May 11th and 12th, we've got a great session entitled "Understanding Adaptive Bitrate Technology And HTTP Video Delivery".  You'll hear directly from some of the platform providers and content owners themselves to see how this technology is impacting their content offerings and plans. We'll also get their guidance on best practices, cost and overhead considerations, and real impact to their users – and the bottom line.
