What the platform does, stated plainly.
Everything below is running today on the channel at bazzy.tv. Where a figure is given, it was measured on the machine that runs it.
Ingest: any camera, any link
| Source | Protocol | Note |
| Studio switchers | SRT | The broadcast switcher path; on air since 11 September 2026. |
| Hardware and software encoders | RTMP, RTMPS | Standard encoder output, no special client. |
| Phones and browsers | WebRTC | Go live from a browser; operators take it to air. |
| Files | Any format | Camera cards, phone recordings, archives; stitched in shot order when a shoot is many takes. |
Fidelity is set at the camera, not the connection. Capture at the camera's quality and the show still goes out over a modest line; the adaptive ladder then fits every viewer's connection.
Encode once, the whole ladder
- One decode, every rung. An adaptive ladder from 240p to 1080p, and to UHD where the source is UHD, encoded from the source's own pixels in one generation.
- Matched to the source. Frame rate and quality follow the material; every master declares peak and average bandwidth and frame rate so players choose well.
- Software or GPU, same result. x264 and AV1 for the library, side by side in one master so a device that decodes AV1 takes the cheaper rung; hardware encode where a GPU is present.
- The recording is a remaster. Every feed is recorded at source quality as it arrives; when the event ends, that recording is re-encoded with no clock on it, so the save is better than the broadcast was.
Store anywhere, deliver everywhere
- Any storage, anywhere. Any object storage provider, or disks you own. The library moves with its owner.
- Standard delivery. HLS with CMAF segments; a low-latency live path; every open a fresh read of the manifest so a change is seen at once.
- Previews and share images. A thumbnail strip when you scrub, a poster, and a share image for any pasted link.
Every word, on the encoder itself
Speech in 100 languages is transcribed on the encoder, and captions are translated into 196 languages. Nothing is sent to a third-party service; no address, no audio, no text leaves the box.
- Library. Every title gets a transcript, captions, and translations; transcripts download as text with English beside any language, line by line, or as a spreadsheet with every language.
- Live. The live feed is captioned as it happens and translated into the same languages, with a transcript panel beside the picture.
- Switched on today. Thirteen languages plus English; the rest are a setting.

Studio, access and sharing
- A studio desk. Switch feeds and titles to air, loop a running order, take a phone straight to air. Private sessions can never reach air.
- Access. A code door, Google sign-in, and member and operator roles; every action on air is written to an audit log with who did it.
- Clips. Cut a clip from any title at high fidelity and share it as a link that shows that clip and nothing else.
- Hidden links. Links to a clip, a comparison or a document open only what they name. Every open is logged with time, address, country and how far the viewer went; a link can carry an expiry or a view count, and revokes in one click.
Deployment
- One bundle, any host. The same encoder installs on a Mobile Studio on-prem or on any cloud, from one playbook and one golden image.
- Polycloud by design. Storage and compute are interchangeable; the channel never depends on one vendor's price list or policy.
- The Amplithian Mobile Studio. Robotic cameras, switching and the encoder, pre-built and pre-wired, set up on site by a curated crew.
Measured on the box that runs the channel, 20 and 21 September 2026: the library transcribes at several times real time; the live captioner runs on CPU alone; a like-for-like encode of a broadcaster's own video lands within a few percent of their bitrate at the rungs people watch. The full measurements are in the platform's internal briefs.
