The Challenge

The client’s vision extended beyond traditional web TV: he wanted to offer a flexible, white-labeled IPTV solution that scaled with customer needs and integrated with any preferred CDN. The platform needed to:

  • Handle multiple channels with custom branding and admin roles
  • Offer granular playlist and ad control in real time
  • Provide subscription-tier flexibility based on features and bandwidth usage
  • Allow easy front-end customization and third-party website embedding

The Opportunity

VidZapper was designed to:

  • Give broadcasters and media entrepreneurs full control over their own channels
  • Support video uploads, scheduling, ad insertion, and front-end customization
  • Deliver adaptive streaming via Amazon EC2, Akamai, Velocix, or any user-preferred CDN
  • Use XML for playlist and ad configuration with drag-and-drop UI
