StreamZilla: your video platform.

Uploadmanagepublish

StreamZilla is an all-in-one video platform that takes the technology off your hands, technology that is of outstanding quality thanks to 30 years of experience with online video. With the StreamZilla VMS (Video Management System) you easily upload, manage and publish your videos, and StreamZilla already does most of the work for you.

01

Upload

Drag your video in. It doesn’t get any easier.

  • Portrait or landscape, detected automatically
  • Multiple qualities, up to 4K
  • Auto poster images and timeline previews
  • Automatic subtitles and transcript

StreamZilla automatically detects whether your video is portrait or landscape and what the quality of the source file is. It then creates multiple quality levels, up to 4K, so your video plays at the highest quality, without stuttering, even when your viewers’ connection briefly drops.

StreamZilla also automatically creates multiple poster images (the image viewers see before they start the video) and preview thumbnails on the timeline, so viewers can scrub through the video quickly and precisely.

Finally, StreamZilla automatically recognises the spoken language and immediately creates subtitles and a full transcript of your video. Handy.

02

Manage

Everything in a few clicks.

  • Title, description and tags
  • Your own poster image or subtitle file
  • Subtitles translated into many languages
  • Search inside subtitles and transcripts

Give your video a title, a description and useful tags. Choose a poster image or upload your own. Edit the subtitles or upload your own subtitle file, and let StreamZilla translate the subtitles into many other languages. Editing the transcript is just as easy. In a few clicks your video is fully tailored and ready to publish, exactly the way you want it.

And your video library? Search it by title, description and tags, and even by words from the subtitles or the transcript. Select videos by tag and sort them however you like, so you can quickly find, and manage videos.

03

Publish

Your brand, your rules.

  • Your colours and logo on every player
  • Player buttons and features on or off
  • Transcript published for search engines
  • Public, unlisted or password-protected
  • AI training by third parties off by default
  • Beautiful public library page
  • Embed in your own website

Customise the colours of your player and landing pages to match your brand, and place your logo on every player. Every video fits your brand perfectly.

Switch player buttons and features on or off, and decide how minimal or how rich the player is for your viewers. You also choose whether the transcript is published with each video: the content of your video then becomes findable by search engines straight away.

You decide whether new videos are published automatically and whether there is an overview page of all your videos. You also decide whether third parties may use your videos to train their AI. By default, that is of course switched off.

For each video you choose whether it appears on your overview page, can only be viewed via a direct link (unlisted, as it’s called), or is protected with a password. And every video is easy to embed in your own website.

04

What your viewers see

Beautiful video that just works.

  • Full screen, up to 4K, in your design
  • Fully keyboard-operable player
  • Enlargeable subtitles and buttons
  • High-contrast mode

Your video full screen, up to 4K, in your design. Title, description, tags, transcript, subtitles, poster image and preview thumbnails together make a rich video experience in a fast, user-friendly player. Worldwide, for millions of viewers.

Does a viewer have a visual or hearing impairment, or find a mouse hard to use? That has been thought of too. Besides subtitles, StreamZilla offers extensive accessibility features: the player is fully keyboard-operable, subtitles and buttons can be enlarged, and the whole page and player can be switched to high-contrast mode.

Manifesto

Until 1994, nobody could simply broadcast. You needed a broadcasting licence, or enough money to broadcast via cable or satellite.

We did not ask for permission.
We put a live broadcast on the open web, and that was the end of those gatekeepers. Suddenly everyone could freely share their knowledge and creativity, in the best medium for conveying emotion too: video.

Unfortunately, there are new gatekeepers. Platforms decide what may be seen. Laws from outside Europe give foreign governments access to your content, your viewers and your data. Your audience has become a product. Not by you. About you.

That is back to 1993. Perhaps even back to 1984.

Time to reclaim your freedom. StreamZilla, market leader in the Benelux from 2003 and grown 1,800 percent in five years, is awake.
