About Castreon

Castreon is self-hosted live TV headend software that runs on Linux servers and is managed through a web panel. It ingests feeds from DVB-C/T/T2 cards, IP cameras and network sources such as SRT, RIST, UDP, RTMP, HTTP, HLS and DASH, with automatic source failover. Operators can transcode on CPU or GPU to H.264, HEVC or AV1, create adaptive-bitrate outputs, and deliver channels through HLS, LL-HLS, DASH, HTTP-TS and WebRTC or push them to other servers and CDNs. The software also supports continuous channels from media files, catch-up and timeshift, recordings, clips, access controls, audience statistics, monitoring, alerts and a REST API. Optional capabilities include SCTE-35, signed multi-CDN links and DRM. Castreon is installed on the operator’s own Linux server and serves broadcasters, cable and IPTV operators, OTT services, hotels and internet providers.
