Frequently Asked Questions

If you have additional questions, get in touch

What is the extent of graphics support Amagi offers?

Amagi supports a wide range of graphics: simple TGA/MOV, automatically rendered AEP files, DVR, audio ducking, Credit Squeezes, L-bands, HTML, and live overlays like Singular.

Does Amagi’s solution include migration support?

Amagi’s onboarding team handles all ingest and asset-level requirements to customize the solution. Amagi coordinates with delivery hubs, uplink centers, and other partners such as Zixi.

Is your cloud playout currently being used by any sports channel? Do you support any platform-specific customizations for OTT channels?

Global sports networks such as IMG EdgeSPORT, DSPORT by Discovery Communications, Horse and Country TV, Pac-12 Networks, Tennis Channel, and FuboTV use Amagi's live event streaming platform.

Do you support any platform-specific customizations for OTT channels?

Yes. Amagi can support customization requests and even provide technical solutions to challenges such as unique ad-serving methodologies used by platforms like Twitch, XUMO, and Roku.

How many destination playouts can be controlled using ‘ganging’?

Amagi supports 1:1, 1:K, and 1:N configurations for live orchestration, and Amagi LIVE can technically be deployed for any number of live delivery destinations.

What does an ‘event’ template consist of?

Event parameters are configurable. However, event duration, break duration, and graphics structure form the crux of any standard event.

What is an intent-capturing system, and how does it work?

Amagi LIVE platform is a new-age intent-capturing system that can be deployed to execute a series of tasks that make up a live broadcast. For example, a sports broadcaster could have an intent to allocate ad breaks only in the middle of a sporting event, such as soccer. In this case, this intent is captured in the Amagi LIVE system and executed by Amagi CLOUDPORT playout systems ‘subscribing’ to this event.

Where else can we use Amagi’s LIVE orchestration solution apart from ad breaks and graphics?

Currently, Amagi’s solution supports customized graphics and ad breaks but has been designed to support contextual interactivity, such as online polls and player cards.

Does Amagi provide 24x7 monitoring support as part of the live orchestration solution?

Yes, Amagi provides infrastructure monitoring for all channels as part of the support, and Amagi’s playout management team notifies the customer of any transmission issues. Amagi also provides a fully managed monitoring service as an add-on.

What live formats does Amagi support?

Amagi supports multiple live ingest formats, including IP stream, SDI, and ASI. Content can be ingested directly on the cloud or Edge servers installed at operator premises.

How reliable is Amagi’s solution for live transmission?

Amagi can support a highly secure, redundant setup to ensure greater reliability for edge playout setup. For true-cloud playout, Amagi relies on enterprise-grade, highly ‘available’ cloud infrastructure providers such as AWS.

I have to deliver my feed to FAST platforms. Can you deliver?

Amagi can deliver channels to popular FAST platforms such as Samsung TV Plus, The Roku Channel, Xumo, Redbox, Pluto TV, Sling, VIZIO, STIRR, and others.

What SLAs can Amagi guarantee?

Amagi can guarantee a best-in-class playout SLA of up to 99.999 percent. In an end-to-end playout and delivery service, distribution SLAs may vary based on the satellite or fiber supplier choice.
