摘要 |
This invention relates to a method and system for providing live television and video-on demand content to a plurality of content viewers' devices, the content viewers' devices having a plurality of disparate content viewing applications thereon. A content provider uploads content to a content server and the content server delivers that content in a streaming format upon request to the user devices. In order to upload the content, the content providers access a web page hosted by the content server with a plurality of encoders embedded into the web page. The content providers use the embedded encoders to convert the content into a plurality of streaming formats and upload the content to the content server in the streaming formats. This significantly speeds up the transfer of content to the content server, ensures that the content is made available to the user devices earlier, and obviates the need for additional expensive equipment at the content server. |
