BERKELEY, Calif., Sept. 3, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Eluvio today announced new advanced features to be showcased at IBC 2026 in its Global Broadcast Fabric, the latest generation of the Content Fabric protocol and global infrastructure, providing comprehensive broadcast transformation from satellite, direct-to-consumer (D2C) OTT streaming and full-stack monetization, and inline AI video intelligence. To schedule a meeting or learn full details about Eluvio's presence at the show visit https://ibc.eluv.io.

"Across the industry, broadcast distribution and D2C streaming are still largely separate tech stacks, and now everyone's bolting AI on as a third," said Michelle Munson, CEO and Co-founder, Eluvio. "The Global Broadcast Fabric supersedes these point hypervisor and CDN solutions and provides a highly efficient and simple solution that unlocks media re-use, deterministic low latency distribution, and AI personalization end-to-end. We've taken advantage of the Content Fabric's zero-copy distribution architecture, frame-accurate metadata, and inline JIT processing to eliminate the cost, complexity, and bottlenecks in advanced media distribution."

Broadcast Transformation: Replacing Satellite and Legacy Cloud Distribution

During the recent World Cup, Eluvio powered a successful commercial pilot with a Tier 1 broadcaster to provide VIP access to live streams and zero-copy VoD rewatch of 105 World Cup matches, surpassing all latency benchmarks, and outperforming the best-case broadcast and streaming latency performance, 15-45+ seconds faster than the legacy streaming services tested worldwide.

At IBC, Eluvio will demonstrate the Global Broadcast Fabric's live broadcast distribution architecture — a decentralized, zero-copy system that replaces satellite distribution, fiber point-to-point connections, and ground-to-cloud multi-point egress for live broadcast feed distribution, extended with new live-operations and monetization capabilities. One decentralized Content Fabric distribution simultaneously serves every downstream taker just-in-time — B2B broadcast affiliates and D2C consumer endpoints — from a single ingest workflow without duplication.

• Global Broadcast Fabric with Zero-Copy & No Egress Fan-Out Charges: The decentralized any-to-any routing architecture replaces point-to-point links for no traffic duplication at scale. Cost does not increase with receiver count and performance does not degrade as receiver count grows. There are no internal Fabric transit charges and no fees for unused distribution time — delivering satellite-beating economics with over-the-top flexibility.
• Broadcast Quality: Sub-500ms global latency with sub-millisecond jitter and SMPTE 2022-7 decentralized multipath phase-lock synchronization — broadcast-grade determinism delivered over-the-top, without centralized control or single points of failure. It's the first such capability delivered over IP at global scale.
• Live Operations/Fast Global Switching & Instant Replay: Via the new Live Stream Manager and APIs, operators can instantly remap broadcast outputs to ingest sources and recover from failures with fast global stream switching and failover. All feeds have zero-copy recording and provide fast DVR and instant replay.
• In-Fabric Ad Insertion: Native server-side ad insertion (SSAI) with unlimited per-session personalization, enabling ad-supported monetization directly within the distribution pipeline — no third-party ad decisioning infrastructure required.
• Personalized Virtual Signage in Live Sports at Scale: The fabric metadata carries AI inference applied on source feeds, and executes per-frame rendering engines to apply virtual signage overlays and smart transformations per frame, for just-in-time zero-copy output generation (broadcast TS or consumer streaming). The live feed distribution requirements are constant, independent of the number of variants produced, and all media parts are re-used, making personalized virtual signage possible at scale. 

At IBC, Eluvio and uniqFEED will preview an integrated virtual signage solution for live sports applying frame accurate virtual signage just-in-time per audience group. The original program feed is analyzed once by an AdAPT Analyzer and the extracted metadata is published into Eluvio's Content Fabric as metadata on the Fabric's live stream distribution. Upon a client streaming request, a Content Fabric node executes the AdAPT Renderer inline its just-in-time, frame-level A/V stack to produce a targeted program feed. The ad image is also available to the A/V stack as Content Fabric "parts", as it is also hosted and distributed by the Fabric.  By combining metadata, program feed and received ads via Fabric JIT distribution, a dedicated feed can be created for any viewer at any time. The architecture allows for a high degree of non-intrusive targeting without modification of the player of the viewer and without duplicating the distribution. 

• Flexible Ingest: JPEG-XS, AVC/HEVC over UDP/RTP/SRT; Ingest from cameras, encoders, and broadcast trucks on-site, or via SRT for wide-area contribution — extending to any sporting venue or remote location.
• End-to-End Security & Authorization: Multi-layer AES encryption with proxy re-encryption into per-session key spaces; Per-session authorization enforces availability windows, geo-restrictions, ACLs, and entitlements automatically for both B2B SRT/TS and D2C HLS/DASH endpoints. Multi-DRM for D2C, SRT encryption for B2B — all built in.
• Live Stream Manager: API-driven operational control for inputs, outputs, routing, health and QoS dashboards, multilayer statistics, and batch configuration for tens or hundreds of feeds simultaneously, with a full SDK for partner automation.
• VIP Command Center / Single Pane of Glass: Desktop and mobile browser application for unlimited global multiview of live feeds at ultra-low latency, with brandable SSO, Fabric policy-enforced stream visibility, and built-in access controls for VIP, NOC, and remote production operations.

No PII collected. Instantly embeddable as a URL in any social post, paid ad, or CRM email. Deployed by a Tier 1 US broadcast network in 2026.
• Analytics & Reporting: Real-time analytics spanning B2B SRT/TS and D2C HTTP streams; global receiver map with per-receiver performance stats; expanded audience metrics; client-side QoS stats; and sales transaction reporting by currency, product, and country.

Eluvio AI & EVIE: Inline, Frame-Accurate Video Intelligence

Complementing the Content Fabric is a major architecture for universal dynamic video intelligence: Eluvio AI and the Eluvio Video Intelligence Editor (EVIE). Eluvio AI is the first commercially available inline, frame-accurate, multimodal AI built natively into a media platform — running inference on live and VOD content at frame and segment level with zero file copies, zero file movement, and zero transcoding, across open-source, custom, and third-party models. Full details were announced in a companion press release issued separately today.
