Spectr – Video streaming server for OTT
To deliver the video to the OTT subscriber, the operator needs a video server - it gives the subscriber live, movies and recordings of programs, each viewer his own stream (unicast). From this server directly depend on the quality of the image, the speed of the start of the video and the costs of the operator for hardware.
