High-Definition Streaming

Stream in HD and 4K.

Did you know that broadcasters with consistently low video quality tend to lose around a quarter of their revenue? Dacast uses RTMP ingest technology which means that our platform is compatible with the affordable encoders you need for high-quality steaming without a hefty price tag. Your viewers can have a lifelike of the show, even if they are at home. Additionally, our video player is set up for adaptive bitrate streaming. This means that the quality of the video adjusts based on each of your viewers’ internet connection to avoid lagging and buffering.

Video Monetization with Secure Paywall

Generate Revenue from Your Music and Entertainment Broadcasts.

Event organizers and promoters typically use ticket sales to generate revenue for their events, and online entertainment is no different. You can sell “virtual tickets” to your online music event with video monetization tools. With Dacast’s paywall you can allow viewers to pay-per-view a concert or festival, monetize your music events with online advertisements and sponsored commercials, and charge a subscription fee for unlimited access to audio-only music streaming.

Audio-Only Streaming

Host Streams with Only Audio.

Although live video streams work for some event coordinators, some prefer audio-only streaming for a simpler process behind the scenes. Additionally, streaming in this fashion is valuable for music broadcasters who aim to produce a stream that is on the same wavelength as a podcast or radio show.
