Leading video software provider Synamedia, will showcase its innovation-driven approach to solving the biggest challenges facing customers today and in the future at the NAB Show, April 5-9, 2025. It will demonstrate how its solutions transform viewing experiences with industry-first cloud and SaaS-based technologies, introduce new streaming business models and monetization opportunities and much more, all while dramatically cutting costs.

At NAB, Synamedia will preview technology innovations including:

An intuitive and personalized living room experience of the future, centering around the Synamedia Senza platform, that brings together innovations in Generative AI, advanced personalization, second-screen interactivity, contextual AI-created advertising and the connected home.

Breakthrough in video quality assessment with pVMAF, Synamedia's machine-learning-based metric to optimize video quality while minimizing CDN costs. Now fully integrated into Synamedia's encoders, as well as x264 and SVT-AV1, pVMAF has been open-sourced to accelerate adoption and empower customers with better, data-driven encoding decisions.

The debut of new AI-enabled content discovery experiences from Synamedia Go including cross-media super aggregation and personalized, AI generated home pages.

Live VQ Probe, a real-time monitoring tool that simplifies live encoder comparisons for an instant view of efficiency and Quality of Experience (QoE) across live streams. It significantly reduces the cost of comparing encoders and fine-tuning rendition ladders, making it easy to quantify CDN savings that result from better compression.

A multi-CDN distribution demonstration with Akamai, showcasing how content steering can serve as a standardized entry point for multi-CDN systems, enabling seamless Common Access Token (CAT) delivery to enhance security and simplify operations.

The debut of Media over QUIC (MOQ) Observability Platform with partner Hydrolix, based on analytics and big-data real-time processing. This platform collects logs across the MOQ distribution pipeline to provide real-time insights into performance, congestion and latency. It is the latest result of Synamedia's efforts to improve low-latency and scalability via its contributions to the MoQ working group at IETF.

A multi-screen experience featuring four screens, each powered by Synamedia Senza, controlled via a tablet. Ideal for hospitality settings with multiple displays or mosaiced screens, this demo features live video feeds across four screens and shows how simple it is to add web widgets, such as game stats or weather information, and images to the screen. What was previously an expensive undertaking requiring AV expertise can now be done by anyone.

Quortex Hub, a SaaS marketplace that manages the complexity of live B2B sports event distribution. It allows content owners to publish live event streams with defined pricing and access, while affiliates can subscribe or purchase streams. An extension of Quortex Link, Quortex Hub ensures efficient, secure, and scalable delivery of live sports content using SRT technology, and supports dynamic schedule and affiliate changes while eliminating traditional manual workflows.

A demo of CDN leak detection, using the same infrastructure as Synamedia's ContentArmor watermarking technology, to help streaming services combat the growing problem of content theft from CDNs.

Customers around the world are telling us the same thing: they need to do more faster and at a lower cost without sacrificing quality of experience, said Paul Segre, CEO, Synamedia. We are committed to building products and technologies that not only address these needs but also anticipate needs of the future. We know the importance of continuous innovations, and we're excited to once again bring some of our most prized advancements to Las Vegas.

CDN enhancements

Hot on the heels of its launch, Synamedia will highlight Quortex Switch, a SaaS-based multi-CDN management tool, the first in the industry based on the latest content steering standards. Additionally, the dashboards allow content providers to orchestrate traffic across multiple CDNs for better ROI.

Synamedia will also demo a new elastic caching feature for its Fluid Edge CDN that allows video service providers to deploy additional caching capability into cloud compute environments. Scaling what is needed, when and where it's needed, ensures a cost-efficient balance between committed capacity and demand.

Synamedia Senza a new model for video services

Hot off the heels of unveiling Tribal Ready as the first Senza customer, the cloud-powered platform will make its NAB debut. Synamedia will showcase how Senza reduces costs, redefines user engagement and future-proofs streaming services with its ultra-fast low latency, enhanced security and rapid onboarding.
