AVideo in a Nutshell

AVideo ® constitutes Audio Video Platform

AVideo is an audio and video platform designed for easy audio and video sharing, with Video On Demand (VOD), streaming, and LiveStream support. We offer robust features so you can own your own Avideo Platform or use our SaaS.

The Evolution of AVideo Platform: Tailoring Multimedia to Enterprises

AVideo serves a diverse range of purposes. From individual content creators looking to share their world to businesses aiming to leverage video for training, marketing, and other purposes, the platform caters to a variety of needs. Governments can also utilize AVideo to create engaging content related to policies, military, recruiting, careers, and more, emphasizing the importance of video in modern-day governance and civic engagement.

A Comprehensive Ecosystem:

The platform is divided into three main components focusing on Management, Encoding, and Storage, each serving a unique purpose in the media life cycle. It's been meticulously designed to manage media, facilitating its upload to temporary storage, where it's encoded and then stored for broadcast. From here, it's distributed to various devices, ready to be consumed by eager audiences around the globe.

The AVideo Platform, with its latest Enterprise edition, has been meticulously crafted to answer the growing multimedia demands of medium to expansive businesses and organizations. It symbolizes a leap in the realm of streaming solutions, merging functionality with enterprise-grade features.

AVideo Platform Project Consists of THREE main Areas: (Management/Encoding/Storage)
  1. Media Management Project(s): AVideo Streamer Software
  2. Encoding Project(s): AVideo Encoder Software, AVideo Encoder Network Software
  3. Storage Project(s): AVideo Storage Software

Management life cycle is as follows; media is managed at the platform at 1, media is then uploaded to a temporary storage to be encoded at 2, then stored for broadcast at 3, then distributed to devices at 1 to be consumed.

Some of the largest brands in the world use the AVideo Platform to manage and distribute their media assets. AVideo Platform project has over 900 developers/contributors, and over 4000+ instances of AVideo Platform installed throughout the world. Because of the remarkable flexibility of the platform, each of our customers uses our platform in a slightly different way, to address their particular needs and deliver solid targeted value to their organization.


AVideo’s innovative plugin design ensures that users can tailor the platform to meet their immediate needs while maintaining the flexibility to expand as their requirements evolve. This scalable approach has attracted some of the largest brands in the world, with each utilizing the platform's remarkable flexibility to deliver value specifically tailored to their organization.

AVideo: More Than Just Streaming

At its core, AVideo is an advanced streaming software platform. However, its brilliance lies in how it brings about a revolution in the sharing and distribution of both audio and video content. One notable attribute is its innovative integration capability with OS.TV Program-Guide, which furnishes users with a structured and dynamic content guide, enhancing user experience manifold.

Its foundational features encompass Video On Demand (VOD), uninterrupted streaming, and state-of-the-art real-time broadcasting functionalities. Such capabilities, when combined, promise not only content delivery but also viewer engagement at unprecedented scales.

Keeping pace with technological advancements and user demands, the subscription packages offered with AVideo are a testament to its commitment to progress. These packages not only ensure that users always have the latest version of the software but also regularly update the accompanying plugins, maintaining a cutting-edge ecosystem.

To ensure that each installation harnesses the platform's full potential, it is entrusted only to certified engineers who are well-versed with the system’s intricacies. Beyond mere installations, the setup of the platforms is spearheaded by certified AVideo Associates. This two-tiered approach guarantees that both the software's foundation and its superstructure are impeccable.

The Chronicles of AVideo Installation and Consultation

The entire journey of integrating the AVideo platform is diverse in its duration and depth. A straightforward media network server installation can be a swift affair, culminating in just a couple of hours. However, more comprehensive configurations, necessitated by complex requirements, can stretch across several days.

Furthermore, the setup process is augmented with an exhaustive consultation phase. Certified AVideo Associates engage with organizations, understanding their unique needs, challenges, and visions. This engagement can range from a few concentrated hours to multiple days, determined by the complexity of the organization's media network and its specific requirements.

Recognizing that the post-installation phase is just as crucial, AVideo offers continued consultation services. This ensures that organizations always have a guiding hand, ready to assist with any technical nuances or challenges that arise during their media streaming journey.

Delineating AVideo's Core Triad

1. The Streamer: The streamer, often considered the lifeblood of AVideo, plays a dual role. It is not only responsible for playing videos but also their adept management, ensuring that content and viewers converge in a harmonious dance.

2. The Encoder: Standing as the technical backbone, the encoder is a marvel. Its primary mission is to metamorphose raw video files, rendering them primed and optimized for the online world.

3. The Live Server: Catering to the burgeoning demand for real-time content, the live server is AVideo’s answer to instantaneous broadcasting. It's the tool that turns passive viewing into an interactive experience.

Demystifying The Encoder's Primacy

While AVideo offers the luxury of a public encoder server, there's an underlying narrative that champions the cause of a dedicated encoder. Whether it's the allure of accelerated performance, the sanctity of enhanced privacy, or the necessity dictated by specific network architectures, a dedicated encoder emerges as a non-negotiable asset for many enterprises.

Technical Blueprint: The Sinews of AVideo

AVideo, with its intricate design, mandates certain non-negotiable server requisites to deliver its promised performance. While these essentials are generously available at no cost, they form the pillars upon which AVideo stands tall. These include, but aren't limited to, PHP (Version 7.4 or above), MySQL (Version 5.0 or above), and the Apache web server (Version 2.x with mod_rewrite enabled).

Server Landscape: Navigating Choices with AVideo

The versatility of the Streamer component is evident in its compatibility with a diverse server landscape, including Windows environments. However, when it comes to the Encoder and Livestream components, Linux, particularly Ubuntu, emerges as the gold standard. The reasons are multifold, but at the forefront is the fact that many control panels can stymie the smooth operation of these components by restricting vital system accesses.

The AVideo Verdict

In the labyrinth of multimedia platforms, AVideo carves out a distinct path. It's not merely a tool but an ecosystem, designed with an astute understanding of the challenges and aspirations of contemporary businesses and organizations. With its multi-faceted components, AVideo pledges a holistic experience, merging content management, encoding, and real-time broadcasts under one cohesive umbrella.
