Kyte Improves Quality of Live Streams

Posted by: Vera Sparre    Under: Product |

Hey Kyte Fans,

We know how much you all love to live stream, so we’ve made some significant enhancements to the Kyte Mobile Producer application that will greatly improve the quality of mobile live streams.

Without getting too deep in the technical weeds, these improvements include:

• Increasing the video capture quality — this allows for superb video quality in optimal network conditions (i.e strong 3G or wifi connection)
• Improved the Quality of Service (QoS) algorithm — optimizes the video quality in poor network conditions (i.e. low 3G or Edge connection), and reduces the occurrence of “buffering” messages for the viewing audience

One of our most active live streamers, Soulja Boy Tell Em, has been doing several live streams today as part of a promotional tour here on the West coast. Check out the quality of his live videos, below.

Most existing Kyte users should have their phones set to “Auto Update” and will get the update the next time they use the application.

Those that don’t have their phones set to “Auto Update,” can get the new application by going to Kyte Mobile Producer on their compatible Nokia S60 3rd edition camera phones and then go to Settings > Update Settings > Check Now. You will then see a message asking if you’d like to download the new version of the application. Simply follow the prompts and you’re all set.

And if you don’t have Kyte Mobile Producer at all and would like to install the app on your compatible phone, point your mobile browser to m.kyte.tv, click “Start Producing,” and then click, “Download Kyte Producer.”

Happy Kyting!
