Every match replay, out fast after the final whistle.

As soon as your system hands over the recording, silken makes the full replay, the short version and the archive copy for every screen, with the Fast tier running solo on the node at top priority, and writes them into your own storage. Nothing to babysit at the weekend.

The business case

What changes for your business.

  1. Replays out fast, every weekend

    The Fast tier runs the replay job solo on the node at top priority, without adding people or machines.

    When it matters A new season; a federation launch.

  2. HDR, 4K and advanced colour, done right

    Matches filmed in 4K HDR look stunning on new screens and still right on phones and older TVs.

    When it matters UHD production; app audiences.

  3. Archives in bulk

    Whole archives re-processed at high speed for a channel or a library deal.

    When it matters Archive monetisation; a library refresh.

Questions

Where does silken sit in an event workflow?

After your harvest job: your live stack writes the recording to your storage and your live-to-VOD step calls silken, which writes the full-match replay, condensed match and archive copy back for your platform.

Can you handle game-day peaks?

Capacity for your event calendar is planned with our team as part of the commercial terms, so peaks are sized before they arrive.

Do you encode the live stream too?

Live is a premium offer on request; contact us with your inputs and schedule.
