Reflector Simplicity


Cloud Managed

Configure your devices together into projects in the management interface and never worry about manually configuring them again. The interface lets you set the quality for your encoder and any desired latency on the receiving decoders. Uncompressed projects even support metadata passthrough!


Plug'n'Play

Once your encoding unit is connected to the Internet, it will automatically sync with the cloud-based Service and send its signal out to all connected decoders, or even the Uncompressed Gateway.

Uncompressed signal workflow using Reflector and Remote Encoder

With the new support for uncompressed streaming, the Reflector service expands it's already best-in-class feature set to provide broadcasters the ability to stream the highest quality audio point-to-point. In addition to streaming uncompressed audio, metadata can be sent along with the audio to ensure that all receiving locations have the program information and ad break triggers they'll need. Uncompressed is supported by the Exstreamer 500 and Instreamer or newer device lines.

As part of this new support in Reflector, StreamGuys is pairing the Reflector service with our powerful Remote Encoding service. By doing so, we can take your uncompressed input signal from your studio and land it in our cloud, encoding that signal to as many destinations as you need.

By taking advantage of this product pairing, you can reduce the Total Cost of Ownership your station has for maintaining the systems needed to encode to the Internet. No more headache of maintaining local encoders and computers; Let StreamGuys take the reins and provide full management and 24/7 support for the encoders in the cloud! One simple box from Barix, with a little help from StreamGuys, and your station can be broadcast all around the world.
