| Redundancy Option: |

Encoding failures are rare, but they can happen. Standby encoders can be turned up in a matter of minutes, but will result in a short outage (standard), simultaneous encodes will failover without detection as long as it is supported by the CDN/Player. |

| Event Replay: |
|
Would you like us to immediately loop the event and replay it for one or more times? This provides an on-going stream to users who might have joined late while the on demand version is being transmitted. |
| DRM Encryption: |
|
Pay per view and sensitive events will sometimes need to be encrypted using PlayReady DRM (Windows Media only). |
