IP broadcast platform

Latency?
Blink, and you’ll miss it.

Phrame turns any collection of live and file-based sources into a single, software-defined broadcast chain — ingest, mix, record and deliver — running on standard IT hardware instead of dedicated broadcast boxes.

Programme audio

Bus throughput

The platform

One chain, end to end.

Single-purpose services exchange raw frames over a shared-memory bus and are coordinated over MQTT. Any source in, any destination out, with everything recordable and replayable.

signal flow streaming

Capabilities

Every stage, in software.

Each capability is a service you can place, scale and update independently — not an appliance you have to buy, rack and rewire.

Ingest

Bring media in from files, RTSP and SRT streams, DVB tuners, NDI and SMPTE ST 2110. Every source is decoded into one consistent raw-frame contract.

input-processor

Mix & effects

Switch, scale, composite, overlay and apply 2D effects; mix audio. Wired over the bus and driven at runtime over MQTT, with Lua scripting for show logic.

vision-mixers

Record & replay

TAMS, the time-addressable media store, records every source as time-indexed segments — so any moment can be retrieved, replayed or reversed by its time range. Compliance recording →

tams

Deliver anywhere

The tail of the pipeline reads live frames from the bus and delivers to files, RTP, SRT, WebRTC, NDI and HLS — re-encoding as needed and fanning out.

Architect

Compose a media system on a canvas from the Phrame component set, configure each part from its own schema, wire typed pins — and apply it as a version-controlled commit.

Orchestration

Intent is authored, committed to Git, distributed over MQTT as desired state, placed onto a node by the reconciler and converged locally — then reported back.

node-orchestrator

Multi-viewers

Design a monitoring wall visually and let the compositor render it: many sources in one output, per-tile labels and borders, audio meters, clocks and no-signal failover.

Licensing

A distributed, credit-based licence manager that allocates credits down a hierarchy of servers to end clients — online, partially connected, or fully air-gapped.

Formats & transports

Any source. Any destination.

The same platform, reconfigured in software. Nothing between the two columns is a different product — it is the same chain, pointed somewhere else.

Sources in

ingest
  • Files MP4 / MOV / MXF and more
  • RTSP / SRT Contribution streams
  • DVB Tuner cards
  • NDI IP production
  • SMPTE 2110 Uncompressed IP
  • MXL Shared-memory bus

Destinations out

egress
  • File Record to disk
  • RTP Low-latency transport
  • SRT Secure reliable transport
  • WebRTC Browser delivery
  • NDI Back to the facility
  • HLS Scale-out streaming

Control surfaces

Design and view broadcast control interfaces.

Build the panel your operators actually need by dragging components onto a canvas. Every control is a real broadcast element — bound to live MQTT topics, rendered in any browser. No hardware panel, no bespoke build.

Shown above: buttons, LED indicators, dials, faders, meter bridges, gauges, segment displays and sparklines — a subset of the Phrame component library. All of it is framework-agnostic custom elements: no dependencies, no runtime, just the platform.

Why Phrame

You bring the content.
Leave the processing to us.

01

No on-site processing

Stream live events without the expensive equipment that normally has to travel to the venue. Outsource the processing and cut what you spend on kit that spends most of its life in a flight case.

02

Uncompressed at speed

Transmit uncompressed media at high speeds, at minimal cost — and scale all the way out to 8K while holding latency low enough that quality never becomes the trade-off.

03

Standards, not lock-in

Phrame speaks the open standards the industry is moving to — SMPTE ST 2110, AMWA NMOS and the BBC R&D time-addressable media store model — which protects the investment you make today.

04

Deploys like modern software

Services are containers, orchestrated across nodes. Scale up, scale down and update without a truck roll — and control the whole system remotely through the browser.
