• Origin streaming server
  The DME has an RTP server, RTMP server, and HTTP Progressive Download server for stored video-on-demand (VOD) files. When a software client requests a served stream, the DME server examines the file to determine transport type, video rate, audio rate, and other parameters and then plays the stream using optimal settings adjusted for bandwidth, frame rate, and other parameters.
• Pushed streams
  The DME also pushes live streams to configured endpoint destinations. In pushed stream mode, the DME is always transmitting and does not wait for a client request. The DME transmits if the client is reachable and listening. The streams are transmitted across the network via RTP, RTMP, or transport stream.
• Pulled streams
  The DME can receive or pull from an encoder, a Flash server, a video conferencing device, or another DME. The DME can also serve streams or push streams to an RTMP server, RTP server, or another DME. The DME supports unicast (one to one) and multicast (one to many) for both input and output. Multicasting can save substantial network bandwidth when multiple clients are accessing the same stream.
• Transrated streams
  The DME is capable of transrating live video streams, by converting a stream from one bit rate and resolution to another. An example of transrating is when a high-bit-rate stream is converted into multiple lower-bit-rate streams for delivery to mobile devices.
• Transmuxed streams
  The DME is capable of transmuxing live video streams from one file format or streaming protocol to another without changing the compression method. An example of transmuxing is when a unicast stream is converted to multicast or when an RTP stream is converted to RTMP. The DME supports a wide range of input streams and live output streams.

The VBrick DME is a single integrated platform that intelligently provides media redistribution, media transformation, and the serving and storage of video-on-demand and live streaming content. A typical deployment has one or more central DMEs connected to edge DMEs. A single stream of media from a central site can support tens of thousands of live views and then be stored locally for on-demand access by thousands more.
Combined with VBrick Rev, an enterprise video management platform, the DME becomes a powerful, integrated component that intelligently and automatically delivers seamless live and stored content to users. It's a vital part of an eCDN that allows you to make high-quality video available to massive, geographically dispersed audiences, all without overloading your WAN. Plus, the DME supports a variety of endpoints, including popular smartphones and media tablets.
