THEOplayer OpenTellySpring Updates: Azure Media Services Partnership, faster ABR, VPAID 2.0 and preloading

April has certainly been an exciting month for the THEOplayer team. Our biggest highlight was our newly established partnership with Microsoft Azure Media Services that will enable our joint customers to benefit from a complete end-to-end solution. The partnership was announced during the NAB Show in Las Vegas where OpenTelly was exhibiting.

Make it faster. That was a motto we have been been focusing on as well. The result? Faster adaptive bitrate streaming that allows you and your viewers to enjoy smooth and stable video streaming without interruptions.

For advertisers and publishers, we can now offer support for VPAID 2.0 that will make it easy for you to show ads on all devices in HTML5.

Last but not least, we will show you how to use our new preloading API to make a smooth transition from video to video.

So, stay updated and check out our news!
