Windows Media Encoder

 

Deploying a VBrick Windows Media Encoders changes the game for delivering Windows Media Video  over LANs, WANs, and the Internet. VBrick’s encoding appliances elegantly deliver:

• Encoding
• Windows Media serving
• Reflecting (Unicast to Multicast)
• Recording
• Tight intergration with VEMS Mystro™

All of these services are delivered on the same compact and ultra-reliable VB6000 platform. It could literally take a rack full of equipment to replace just one VBrick encoder. Don’t waste your time and money on competitive solutions that involve a hodgepodge of unreliable PCs and disparate applications.

The ubiquity of Windows Media Player on PCs makes Windows Media video an enticing choice to deploy across a large organization. VBrick has even solved the challenge of deploying Windows Media on Macs by developing our own Mac video player; it's no one wonder that thousands of customers have deployed VBrick Windows Media Encoders in schools, government agencies, medical facilities and corporate data centers.
