Record is set to transform its digital content delivery with a move into the streaming linear TV and direct-to-consumer (DTC) markets. Partnering with Evertz.io, Record is launching a streaming solution that will power its PlayPlus application with unparalleled video quality and seamless streaming.
The collaboration is designed to kick-off with twelve regionalized channels, with ambitious plans to expand to over 21 channels. The primary objective is to streamline channel management and enhance operational efficiency, revolutionizing how Record manages and monetizes its digital content.

Plans include rolling out an additional 21 channels and integrating Evertz.io’s solution with an automation system to unlock new possibilities in channel management and monetization.
