Register nowLive video workflows in action
Our demonstrations highlight how the Zixi Platform enables acquisition, processing, and distribution of live video at scale, helping media organizations deliver broadcast-quality streams reliably across any IP network.
Acquisition
Automate acquisition, source switching, and live video contribution from any location, over any network. The Zixi Platform handles reliable ingest across unpredictable remote environments, providing centralized orchestration and visibility across every ingest point.
Processing
Normalize, regionalize, and prepare content for any downstream requirement. The Zixi Platform orchestrates workflows and ensures interoperability, programming compliance, blackout enforcement, alternate content for different markets, and dynamic ad insertion.
Distribution
Securely deliver over any IP network with up to 99.999% reliability and end-to-end AES-256 encryption. The Zixi Platform keeps quality high across variable network conditions. Easily reach more targets with broad interoperability and at a lower cost with reduced egress costs.
New at NAB 2026
Zixi is introducing new capabilities that expand interoperability, automate complex workflows, and increase operational resilience across live video delivery.
Create and Monetize More Content
Zixi On-Air Pro
Turns smartphones into Zixi-enabled cameras and encoders, enabling broadcast-quality live contribution from virtually any location without dedicated hardware.
Live Event Stage Management in ZEN Master
New event-stage controls allow operators to automate or manually manage transitions between event stages with flexible timing adjustments and confirmation safeguards during live broadcasts.
TAMS Integration for Rapid Content Workflows
Support for Time Addressable Media Store (TAMS) enables real-time clipping, compliance recording, archiving, and collaborative content workflows for live events and linear streams.
Operational & Delivery Enhancements
ESNI Integration
Integration with Event Scheduling and Notification Interface (ESNI / SCTE-224) enables schedule-driven source switching for regionalization, blackout management, and content localization. Includes internal ESNI server and third-party system interoperability.
SPTS Re-Multiplexing
Single Program Transport Stream (SPTS) re-multiplexing enables the creation of localized program variants for distribution across multiple markets and affiliate partners.
SCTE-35 Stream Manipulation in ZEN Master
Monetize and reach more targets without re-originating streams. Modify SCTE-35 signaling directly within workflows to meet downstream system requirements. Supports integration with third-party POIS decision systems.
Modernized Zixi Broadcaster Interface
A redesigned user interface improves navigation speed and simplifies operational workflows across the media gateway.
