Video Encoding and Editing

The reason most web based video does not perform well is because it has not been properly edited prior to encoding. In addition, we use flash based technology that eliminates the need for player boxes and broadband only connections. Our professional staff will trim, crop, chroma-key, adjust color and sound, as well as optimize your video for streaming on dial up and broadband connections.

Bandwidth Detection and Optimized File Delivery

In addition to editing, it is also crucial to properly detect the viewer's internet connectivity, place the appropriate cookie and allow for the user manually override the cookie. Each video also needs to preload the optimal amount of data before starting to play so the presentation doesn't stall out or wait too long before playing. All of these functions are built into every FileStream account so you don't have to reconfigure your existing web site. Simply upload the videos to your account and we will return the necessary links for you to place on your web site.

Customized Player Features

When it comes to web site usability, the next key area is viewer control of the video. Nothing irritates a consumer more than "Buffering" and not being able to move within the video to review key points or skip ahead. Our custom players not only optimize "video pre-loading" but also allow the end user to pause, play or move around within the presentation. In addition, you can predetermine exactly how many times you want the video to auto play and whether you want the visitor sent to another web page at the end of the presentation.

File Security

The security of your stored files is our top priority. Using a flash file format is quite secure in itself but we take additional steps to insure everything is as protected as possible. We can designate password protected areas, scramble html code and use frame based "Security Shells" that will not allow users access to the source of your the files. In addition, all your files are stored in a secure environment that is only accessible by you and the editor who is assigned to your account. In the case of our corporate level accounts, you are the only client on a dedicated server. To learn more about the hosting facility click here.
