A Unified HD Streaming player capable of being seen everywhere is the goal and we’re a step closer with our latest updates to Monster Encoder to include HTML5 encoding. In addition to Unified Live HD Streaming, our new player is capable of being viewed on more devices and browsers than ever before for Video On Demand. The best part is that if HTML5 is not supported on the device or browser, it simply falls back to flash and plays. Compatibility includes:

Browsers:

- IE browsers v9 or later
- Safari v3 or later
- Firefox browsers v4 or later

Florida Keys local TV station, WEYW, interviewed Jon Landau earlier this week. Jon Landau is probably best known as being a producer for Titanic and Avatar, but was also involved with the classics Dick Tracey and Honey, I Shrunk the Kids.

In order to make this interview possible, WEYW uses a TriCaster to mix the two video feeds and broadcast them simultaneously. TriCaster is an approved 3rd party broadcaster with the configuration available right in the TikiLIVE Broadcaster Dashboard. A simple copy/paste of the RTMP information is all it takes to broadcast to TikiLIVE.

Jon is speaking out about a tax referendum that has a big impact on the schools in the Florida keys. He makes it clear that the referendum, if passed, will not cost Monroe county residents. The referendum is to move 0.5% of the existing tax that is currently allocated for capital improvements and puts it into operational budgets. In his words, “education is the key to our future, it’s not about the buildings our children learn in. It’s not about where administrators are housed. It’s about the teachers and the programs the schools offer.” Jon reminds us to vote in the upcoming election and the referendum vote takes place today, along with the Florida GOP primaries.
