StreamGuys sales engineer Andy Jones says several factors influence the decision whether to encode Internet TV in-house.
How should broadcasters approach encoding and optimizing their content for Internet delivery to everything from a traditional desktop computer to the wide array of tablets and mobile phones millions of people use to stay connected to their favorite video sources?
