Hardware offloading
For transcoding processes that prioritize efficiency, density, and cost-effectiveness, Vindral LiveEngine is compatible with Video Processing Units (VPUs) powered by ASIC technology.
Vindral Live is not only compatible with the following hardware accelerators/encoders – it has a deep integration allowing for automatic load balancing, monitoring and collecting real-time statistics of various metrics.
NETINT Quadra VPU
NETINT’s Quadra VPU stands out due to its exceptional performance and video quality, seamlessly integrated with the transcoder instances within Vindral Live OEM.
AMD/Xilinx Alveo MA35
The AMD Alveo™ MA35D Media Accelerator is a high-density, ultra-low latency VPU, optimized for streaming and supported by Vindral Live OEM.
Nvidia NVENC
Nvidia NVENC enables real-time, hardware-accelerated video encoding with high quality and minimal CPU usage, fully supported in Vindral Live OEM.
Intel Quick Sync
Intel Quick Sync accelerates video encoding on Intel CPUs and GPUs, offering fast, efficient encoding for a wide range of codecs.
Supported codecs and protocols
Full-stack support for modern video transport and encoding standards.
Transport
MoQ (Media over QUIC), SRT, RTMP/RTMPS, HLS, LL-HLS, WebRTC.
Codecs
AV1 (30% better bandwidth efficiency than H.264), H.264.
Hardware acceleration
NETINT Quadra VPU, AMD Alveo MA35D, NVIDIA NVENC, Intel Quick Sync.
Low-latency transport using MoQ
Media over QUIC (MoQ) is the next-generation transport protocol designed for real-time media delivery. By adopting MoQ, you ensure your streaming platform is ready for the demands of tomorrow—combining ultra-low latency, scalability, and resilience for both live and interactive applications.
Monitor everything
Monitor your entire streaming setup in real time. Vindral Live Self-managed offers instant metrics for every node and stream, with easy integration to Grafana and Kibana for visualization and alerts.
“Vindral’s API-driven approach gave our teams direct control over the production workflow — from building a custom web audio mixer on the WebSocket API to managing Composer instances through our own orchestration system. Being able to produce the Winter Olympics from Stockholm, without specialist engineering on-site, is exactly the kind of outcome NEO was designed to deliver.”
