iPhone Live Streaming Solution

Building on our long experience in bringing live TV online, we have developed a turn-key solution to allow owners of linear/live TV or video channels to distribute them live on the iPhone in their own branded application.

Livestation gives you access and direct control of a new distribution platform reaching the high profile demographic of the iPhone user base.

An example showing the high quality streaming offered by our solution

WHITE LABEL – Offering a one stop, fully managed solution, Livestation can take a live television signal, transcode it and distribute it live in high quality and with an optimal user experience to millions of iPhone/iPod users.

MORE REVENUE – You can generate revenue by selling your application on the iTunes App Store. Additionally, you can also sell sponsorship on your app. Clickable video and display ads can be included in the stream before the user starts watching your live channel.

Ideal for any quality/premium TV channel, for sport events (Wimbledon, Ryder Cup, etc) or for entire seasons (football, rugby, F1, cricket, etc).

MORE REACH – Increase your reach by accessing any user with an iPhone or iPod Touch anywhere in your target regions. Distribution via the App Store can be specified on a country by country basis for maximum flexibility. With over 30 million devices ready to tune into your channel, this is a unique opportunity to take your channel/s directly to one of the highest profile audiences in the world and allow them to tune-in while on the move.

INCREASE CONSUMPTION ON YOUR MOBILE WEBSITE – Your WAP/mobile site can be included in the iPhone application alongside your live channel providing direct access and increased traffic to your mobile website.

BE THE FIRST – Livestation is one of the only companies today with the end-to-end technology to bring your channel/s to the iPhone. The first companies to take this opportunity will have a significant first-mover advantage which will result in additional reach and revenue-generating opportunities that this unique offering brings. The PR opportunities will be also substantial and being one of the first brands to offer live TV on the iPhone platform will drive strong and rapid uptake.

SUPERIOR TECHNOLOGY – The Livestation solution for iPhone is the most advanced in the market as it has been developed to take advantage of the unique technical specifications of the iPhone and iPod Touch series.

Note: we are also planning to support the native Apple Streaming protocol alongside our own for maximum choice and flexibility as soon it become available on the device.
