German audio network specialist DirectOut and Italian IT system provider Vivivaldy have joined the SRT Alliance following the strategy of providing easy and reliable remote production solutions. Jointly, they will use SRT for ViViD, a service that permits easy set-up of remote productions using standard internet connections.
SRT (Secure Reliable Transport) is a free open-source A/V transport protocol and technology stack developed by Haivision that enables the delivery of high-quality and secure, low-latency audio/video across the public internet. With upwards of 450 members in the SRT Alliance and widespread industry adoption, SRT is the fastest-growing open-source streaming project.
‘As Vivivaldy we’re proud to join the SRT Alliance to implement the open-source A/V transport protocol into our VPN-routers,’ says Vivivaldy CEO, Luca Di Chio. ‘We think it’s a way to bring additional value to our clients. As the three pillars of ViViD are simplicity, low latency, and reliability, SRT helps us to guarantee a steady, glitchless audio transmission to open new scenarios and possibilities to live and broadcast streaming events via public internet infrastructures.’
‘Reliability has always been an important principle for DirectOut,’ adds DirectOut CEO, Jan Ehrlich. ‘Our hardware is built to be solid and grant high quality, and the same concept stands for our AoIP implementations. The SRT Alliance follows the same approach of secure and reliable network transmission for maximum quality, so joining the alliance perfectly matches with our company goals.’
‘With the SRT Alliance, DirectOut and Vivivaldy are joining an industry movement to improve the way the world streams audio and video,’ says Jesús Carrillo, Director of SRT Alliance at Haivision. ‘We’re pleased to see the SRT protocol being actively implemented by some of the world’s biggest broadcast and enterprise streaming workflows, as its adoption and industry-wide recognition continues to grow, becoming the standard for low-latency internet streaming.’
The SRT Open Source Project is a collaborative community of industry leaders and developers striving to achieve lower latency internet video transport by continually improving open-source SRT.
