Support for multiple content types

FlixFlax offers support for multiple content types:

  • On-demand:  movies, episodes, vlogs, any video content that is played whenever and wherever the viewer wants to see it.
  • Linear: feeds from TV channels, from local sources (closed network IPTV systems) to worldwide OTT feeds. Of course you can also include your own scheduled channels that are programmed using our Yourown.tv product.
  • LIVE: go LIVE straight into your own platform from external LIVE feed suppliers, your own event – which you can for example direct with CYMTV Producer – or even with any Smartphone using the CYMTV Camera App.
  • Interactive: package interactive webpages or any other form of content as a standard content item, subject to for example pay-tv or subscription options. This can be really anything, from e-learning classes to interactive TV shows with voting and/or live chat options, or one-on-one or many-to-many videocalls.

Categories

 

 

Categorize your content by creating categories or “channels” to distinguish between content packages, topics or content suppliers/partners. You can change the display order of categories, add subcategories, add logo’s and much more.

Supported formats

FlixFlax supports virtually any video format, in any resolution or video- and audio-codec. On-demand videos can be easily uploaded directly into the platform, or linked to from an external CDN. For LIVE and linear feeds, both H264 and H265 are supported, up to any resolution (including 8K).

 

Protect your content

 

The last thing you want is for non-authorized (and non-paying) persons to be able to watch your content. FlixFlax supports Hotlink protection in combination with all major streaming platforms, but also supports all major DRM solutions to keep your content safe!

As a big plus, FlixFlax already comes with a full integration of StreamUnlimited, the virtual CDN Add-on that will save you a lot (!) of money on your data traffic bill! All you need to do is to register a StreamUnlimited account and you are good to go – and save!

Multiple business models

 

Whether you want to offer your content for free, or charge subscription fees or one-time payments for therm, it’s up to you! You can assign subscription options to content categories or charge per view for individual content items. You can also mix all available options. For example, you can create a content category for a music artist, set the subscription to a low monthly price and then offer a LIVE stream from a concert for a premium one-time fee. Or offer a virtual afterparty with the artist and the band for a selected (paying) audience.
