A Softeq Case Study
The customer, a US-based broadcast transmission platform developer, needed a fast-turn demo to showcase its next‑generation broadcasting platform’s multiview and multiscreen capabilities (ATSC 3.0, H.265) to media streaming providers. They engaged Softeq to deliver a subscription-based, multiplatform streaming app that could demonstrate creative services like split‑screen live sports and PIN‑based access ahead of an industry event.
Softeq delivered a demo app for NVIDIA Shield, Android tablets and iPad that uses ATSC 3.0 for transmission, H.265 encoding (double data compression) and HLS delivery, with ExoPlayer and ijkplayer for cross‑platform playback and GPU‑based video processing for smooth output. Facing a late server handoff, Softeq designed a flexible architecture, replaced VLC with ExoPlayer to fix playback issues, and met the one‑month deadline—enabling the customer to demonstrate live multiview streaming and multiscreen functionality across devices at the event.
