How do I prepare video content for my TV station broadcasting?
Professional TV station broadcasting requires all video content to be encoded at consistent formats, sample rates, and bitrates for seamless transitions. This applies to both scheduled programming and live broadcasts, as our system automatically switches between content without interrupting viewers.
For optimal TV station performance, encode videos slightly below your plan's bitrate limit. For example, with a 2048Kbps plan, encode content at 1500-1900Kbps with a 2000Kbps maximum. Our TV station hosting plans range from 2K to 8K and beyond with dedicated cloud options.
We recommend Shutter Encoder for professional video preparation. MediaCP provides a comprehensive video encoding guide specifically for TV station operators.

Your TV station dashboard provides the RTMP URL and Stream Key for immediate live connection. The system seamlessly switches from scheduled programming to your live broadcast without interrupting viewers.
