With the start of a new year, there's no better time to dive head-first into the world of live streaming. Unite your entire community with HD video that makes everyone feel like they’re witnessing the festivities in person.
Live streaming is the perfect way to digitally unite your community around the globe. VidiU Go adds even more features to help you capture and share your services from any location to any online destination. With VidiU Go, you can:
Go live to your Facebook Page, YouTube Channel, website, or multiple destinations at the same time.
Bond network connections from Ethernet, WiFi, and up to two cellular modems for more network redundancy in even the toughest environments.
Use HEVC compression to stream high-quality video with even less bandwidth.
Connect to Core to configure, manage, and save your streams remotely.
Teradek is giving you the opportunity to stream with a 21-day free trial of their newest live streaming encoder, VidiU Go. Here’s a breakdown of the program:
Why should my church live stream?
Live streaming allows you to share your church’s special moments with your entire community. Bring people together in person and online by publishing your video to social media, your church’s website, or a custom RTMP address. This is especially important to reach your parishioners who are traveling or cannot make it into church, so they can also be part of all your celebrations.
Why do I need VidiU Go for my church?
Whether you have lots of production experience or your church is streaming for the first time, VidiU Go makes it easy to create professional video that engages your viewers. VidiU Go is packed with features to make your videos higher quality and your streams more reliable than ever before. Use HEVC compression to stream HD video with less bandwidth, so if your events happen off-site or somewhere not equipped with network connectivity, you don’t have to worry about dropping your stream. The VidiU Go Deluxe Kit even includes two 4G LTE modems and Telna SIM cards, so you’re connected to the internet and ready to stream right out of the box.
Why not just use my phone?
While using your mobile phone to stream is convenient, it’s not a reliable streaming solution. Your phone only has one network connection, whereas VidiU Go can bond up to four connections from Ethernet, WiFi and two 3G / 4G / LTE modems, or up to four mobile phones, into a single redundant internet source. This means you can take your live streams anywhere, even areas with little connectivity.
Plus, when you use VidiU Go, you can stream HD video using a professional camera. Create dynamic videos with sharp focus and a zoom lens to capture the action up close. Connect audio from an audio board to clearly capture the sounds of the sermon and choir.
How does the Try Before You Buy Program work?
Teradek’s Try Before You Buy Program is the best way to test drive VidiU Go in your streaming workflow to experience the benefits before you commit. Simply take five minutes to complete this survey. If you qualify, Teradek will follow up with a trial agreement to sign online. Once your VidiU Go Deluxe Kit arrives, you have 21 days to stream. Following the trial period, you can choose to purchase the kit or send it back to Teradek free of charge.
What is included in my VidiU Go Deluxe Kit?
VidiU Go Live Streaming Encoder
Two 4G LTE Node Modems
$100 of credits for Core, Teradek’s cloud-based streaming management platform
Two Telna SIM cards
Carrying Case
All of the required cables and accessories
Why do I need a Core account?
While you don’t need a Core account to stream with VidiU Go, connecting your VidiU Go to Core gives you access to all of its advanced features. Without Core, you can use VidiU Go with a single network source to stream to one online destination. However, Core offers benefits like:
Multi-destination delivery to reach your whole community online.
HEVC transcoding when you want to save bandwidth.
Network bonding to combine connections from WiFi, Ethernet, and cellular modems.
Video archiving so you can access your streams after your service ends.
Remote configuration and management of your codecs and destinations.
Is there a catch?
Nope! Just free streaming with Teradek’s most advanced live streaming encoder for 21 days. Teradek will let you know when your free trial is coming to an end, so you can decide if you want to purchase your VidiU Go or send it back.
We will ask for a Credit Card to be kept on file for the length of the demo. The credit card will only be charged if you decide to keep the unit or if we don’t hear back from you after 21 days.
How does my church qualify?
Qualifying for Teradek’s Try Before You Buy Program is easy. You simply have to represent a church that plans to use VidiU Go to stream services, concerts, or special events. You don’t even need to have live streaming experience - just a desire to try. To sign up or learn more, visit teradek.com/worship.
What’s the deadline?
The program ends on January 31, 2020. Make sure you sign up before it’s too late!
