Radiant Media Player is a player company and we do not provide transcoding or hosting services for media content. We focus on developing a great HTML5 media player, with lot of customization options for people who want to cut streaming costs and use a more DIY-approach to building a streaming service. Several options are available, and presented below, to host and transcode media content for use with Radiant Media Player. You can stream to Radiant Media Player with HLS, MPEG-DASH or MP4/WebM progressive download so any standard-compliant solution that can produce output in those formats can be used with Radiant Media Player.
Cloud services, like Amazon Cloud (Media Services on AWS), Google Cloud (Google Cloud for media and entertainment) or Microsoft Cloud (Azure Media Services), provide services to host and transcode media content in HLS or MPEG-DASH that can be used with Radiant Media Player. Additionally, they can also provide CDN services for a global reach. Those are just examples of cloud services that can be used with Radiant Media Player, any standard-compliant service that can output to HLS or MPEG-DASH, for live, on-demand or DVR streaming can also be used.
You can use specialised commercial media server software like Wowza Streaming Engine or Ant Media Server to host and transcode your content to HLS and MPEG-DASH in a straight forward manner. You will however need to rent servers from a cloud company to install and manage the media server software.
There are some great open-source projects out there to help you host and transcode media content for use with Radiant Media Player. As with the previous option you will need to rent servers from a cloud company to install and manage those open-source software.
