Pearl-2 Hardware Encoder is a Gem for Streaming Solutions
Pearl-2 is a powerful live production video mixer that creates stunning live video programs by combining, encoding, switching and recording up to six video sources and 2 audio sources. See why Stream Monkey chose Epiphan Pearl-2 for their streaming needs.
Pearl-2 is the recommended hardware encoder for clients in the worship space
Stream Monkey is an online video company focused on simplifying the way users share, connect, and engage with their audience. Their cloud technology allows control and delivery of video all across the planet. Video is hosted on the Akamai CDN and packaged in a convenient player that’s easily embedded on websites or integrated with other streaming sites, like Facebook Live.
Looking for the best hardware encoder
Director of Operations, Nicholas Roselius, had a hard time finding a reliable hardware encoder to recommend as part of their solution. Since many clients from houses of worship don’t have a technical background, Stream Monkey was looking for a robust hardware encoder that was simple to use, affordable, and high quality.
According to Nicholas, “It all starts with the encoder.” If the encoder doesn’t work, then everything else down the line doesn’t work well. So when Stream Monkey discovered Pearl, they realized they’d finally found what they were looking for.
The Pearl solution
“Now we can go to our customers with options to consider using Pearl as a great way to start off streaming, or if they’re not satisfied with their current setup, to switch over to Pearl-2.” To Nicholas, the Epiphan Pearl line is affordable, simple to use, very reliable, and produces high quality streams. Pearl also helps keep support costs to a minimum. “…eliminating the encoder as the cause of issues is a great thing for us.”
People like the easy, one-touch recording and streaming feature of Pearl and Pearl-2, as well as the touch screen on the front panel. They’re really impressed by the many Pearl features, like switching between cameras and picture in picture.
