Reliable, Low Latency Video Transport Over the Public Internet
SRT, or Secure Reliable Transport, is an open source video transport protocol designed to deliver high quality, low latency video over unpredictable IP networks. By compensating for packet loss, jitter, and fluctuating bandwidth, SRT enables broadcasters and production teams to use the public internet for professional live video contribution and distribution.
SRT is ideal for remote production, live sports, news gathering, contribution, cloud production, and point to point video transport. It provides secure transmission with AES encryption while using intelligent packet recovery to maintain reliable video delivery when network conditions are less than perfect.
VidOvation offers SRT encoders, decoders, gateways, transmitters, and workflow solutions that help connect field locations, production facilities, cloud platforms, and remote teams. SRT can increase production flexibility and reduce dependence on costly dedicated circuits or satellite connectivity while maintaining the reliability required for professional live video workflows. VidOvation’s remote production solutions use SRT for flexible, cost effective acquisition and interoperability between field encoders, production facilities, gateways, and third party video sources.
Common SRT Applications Include:
• Live video contribution over the public internet • Remote and at home production • Sports and live event production • Broadcast news gathering • Studio to studio video transport • Cloud production workflows • Encoder to decoder transmission • IP video gateways and stream routing • Backup and redundant contribution paths • Replacing or supplementing satellite and dedicated circuits
