A clear look at FAST Streaming Playout Solutions Broadcaster

FAST Streaming Playout Solutions Broadcaster runs scheduled, always-on channels that feel like traditional TV over the internet. In streaming terms, linear and FAST channels sits at the center of how audiences discover, watch and pay for your content.

How FAST Streaming Playout Solutions Broadcaster works

Channels can be monetized with FAST advertising and distributed to apps, smart TVs and aggregators alongside your on-demand catalog.

A schedule sequences on-demand assets, live feeds and ad breaks into a continuous channel with an electronic program guide. Cloud playout assembles the stream and inserts ads dynamically, so you run TV-style channels without a broadcast facility.

What a strong platform delivers

  • Distribute to apps, smart TVs and FAST aggregators
  • Cloud playout for 24/7 linear and FAST channels
  • Mix live feeds, on-demand assets and graphics in one channel
  • Drag-and-drop scheduling with an electronic program guide

Getting it right

  • Mark ad breaks accurately for clean dynamic insertion
  • Build deep schedules so channels never run empty
  • Repurpose your VOD library to fill linear airtime cost-effectively

Building this on LinqTV

Solutions engineers can help you benchmark performance and estimate operating cost before a full migration.
