Case Study: Teaching Channel achieves seamless cross-device video playback and boosted syndication revenue with JW Player

How Teaching Channel used JW Player’s excellent playback and powerful platform to deliver videos across any browser, format, and partner site

Teaching Channel, an online community that produces and shares teaching training videos, faced widespread playback problems delivering content to the diverse devices and browsers used by school districts and third-party partners. To address this, Teaching Channel adopted JW Player’s HTML5 player and platform to ensure reliable cross-device playback and support for third-party syndication.

JW Player delivered an adaptive-bitrate HTML5 player plus customization, captioning, bookmarks/timestamps, analytics and flexible APIs, enabling fast, consistent playback and easier licensing to partners. The result was fewer playback complaints, better control over videos on partner sites and increased syndication revenue, along with big operational gains—Teaching Channel can load a couple hundred caption files in minutes and caption 600–700 videos per month using JW Player’s tools.
