How to Webcast Using Softron OnTheAir Video

In this article, industry pioneer and technology guru Mike Skibra (right) discusses both IPTV (Internet Protocol Television) and the way that tools like Softron's OnTheAir system delivers digital television over broadband network connections. IPTV is television content that, instead of being delivered through traditional broadcast and cable formats, is received by the viewer through the technologies used for computer networks. At the forefront of this new evolution in distribution, Softron OnTheAir enables the delivery of content using these internet enabled computers to become new broadcast channels. The OnTheAir system is Mac-based and in this article, Mike Skibra explains many of the basics you need to know for set-up and successfully broadcasting your content.
