Compatibility

UPDATE AUGUST 2020 - Easylife is a peer-to-peer broadcasting platform which operates entirely encrypted streams in real time. It requires gaming performance PCs to broadcast HD, 4K and exceptional speeds to broadcast in 8K. You should have a screen resolution of 1920 x 1080 min to provide general meeting & broadcast services. Past improvements have been extended to Ubuntu and Mac OSX machines. The faster your machine the greater the performance in both latency and definition.

Because we incorporate peer-to-peer broadcasting, streams do not pass through a central server. All streams are encrypted using SHA256. Easylife is unable to see your video feeds as peer-to-peer routes streams directly between the broadcaster and the guest devices

In 2020 all released browser updates provided full compatibility with easylife services eliminating any need for users to download plug-ins or apps

Android & IoS Apps

Easylife is designed to operate in the browser. No App provides all the broadcasting functions provided by Easylife but we do offer a full suit of apps designed to support the various aspects of Broadcast and Reception. If you operate a chrome book try visiting Easylife.com broadcast services but it will not benefit from the support of the IP Camera app we have created for Windows users or the Broadcast Station app designed for third party services like Facebook and Youtube

  • Apps to support viewing
    • View Only - We offer a suit of apps that provide a view only function - they are all free to download
    • View only with interaction - Expect to see new apps that allow users to interact with broadcasts
    • In 2017 we launched the XDS Studio Link service embedded into our XDS consoles
    • In Q3 2020 we launched 'Easylife Guest', an app that allows viewing of Net Meeting services

ABOUT US

About Easylife.com

Easylife is a professional video interface that allows you to share your webcam, IP Cameras or Desktop in a peer-to-peer environment or directly to services such as Facebook. It is a straightforward way to use video entirely in your browser. If you are looking to chat securely with friends, create a broadcast quality peer to peer communication link between a professional camera or simply the camera built into your mobile phone then we are the service for you

It uses the latest API technology built into browsers, much of which is experimental and still being agreed between browser providers. It means that some services will only work Chrome to Chrome or in the case of Broadcast to third party services, will only work in Firefox. It means that services such as Chat will not be concluded until there is agreement between browser providers relating to protocol implementation

About Easylife.TV

Easylife.TV is a Public Service Content Delivery Network (PS-CDN). Our Broadcasting Platform at easylife.com is the only way to broadcast to easylife.tv but both broadcasting and reception are free. It features cutting-edge neural technology to distribute video content via the internet to PC's Laptops and Mobile Apps. It does this without any central servers and means that your content can be distributed directly from your browser using Windows 10 or Ubuntu Desktop Operating Systems and running entirely within the browser

Easylife is ideal for established broadcasters looking to reduce or eliminate their CDN costs and Easylife provides an instant solution. We fully respect the intellectual property of content providers and seek to have in place full reporting and abuse mechanisms

We will not seek to add any logo overlays, add third party adverts, inject any third party content what-so-ever in your broadcasts. 

We hope broadcasters will share and embrace this technology and see potential opportunities for their business in the future. Our systems and plans include some amazing concepts which include automated advertising recognition (within your streams) with full reporting mechanisms available only to you, the ability to attach a Pay Per View stream to an exiting Free stream for premium content as well as simultaneous multi-broadcasts for shopping TV channels that enable viewers to see alternative product views and even 3 dimensional views of the product they are looking to purchase

Whilst our service already supports unlimited viewers of your Public Service CDN broadcast, we also offer upgrade options allow broadcasters to cap their expenditure at a remarkably low cost, improve the connectivity rate with server support in Europe, Asia & America as well as removing the very small easylife watermark from broadcasts

How it works

All services work in a fully in-browser environment but often changes are made to the way browser API's are accessed and we need to implement changes to reflect these improvements. Free sign-up allows you to get started straight away and we automatically store your settings for when you return. It means that you do not have re-select all the cameras when you return. CCTV Services with Digital Video Recorder (DVR) is now fully operational with Chrome and our newly created series of apps. Cloud Video Recording (CVR) launched fully on December 8th 2015 and uses Microsoft's cloud storage service. This provides an unprecedented level of security over your stored images which only you have access too. Optimization of all services is ongoing. In the Summer of 2016 we improved the playback engine for stored cloud recordings and we have further ideas for the future.
