So before we get started, can you tell us a little bit about yourself, how you got started with Wowza, and what your overall mission is?
Barry OwenGUEST
1:00
Sure.
Kirk HarnackHOST
9:32
Gotcha.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:32
Enter Wowza.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:33
You know, back in the early days of this-
Kirk HarnackHOST
9:34
That's right, Wowza, yeah, yeah.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:35
Yeah.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:35
In the early days of this, the co- none of the encoders supported that.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:45
Correct.
Kirk HarnackHOST
9:46
Yeah.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:23
But not all web encoders can do native HLS, in which case you have to have some middleware that can convert a real-time stream into HLS.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:32
Enter Wowza.
Matt LevinGUEST
9:33
Back in the early

days
Matt LevinGUEST
10:16
Right away.
Matt LevinGUEST
10:16
Correct.
Matt LevinGUEST
10:17
And Wowza solved that problem, too, because Wowza, at the time, allowed us to do the HLS from our existing Ice Cache stream, and it allowed us to upload our short little pre-roll video that it would splice in ahead of the real-time stream that was chunking up from our Ice Cache stream.

Okay.
