New Producer Features

Listen up, producers! blip.tv is happy to announce some exciting new features.

Say hello to your new Android audience - all 130 million of them! Starting today, all new uploads embedded off-site from blip.tv will support playback on Android, reaching a potential 130 million total devices. How’s that for reach? In the upcoming weeks we will be adding Android support to our on-site player as well.

Next up, new “IFrame” style embeds have arrived. These embeds are now the default that viewers and producers will see when sharing and embedding videos off-site. IFrame embeds let us serve up the best version of your video possible and support not only Flash, but iOS, Android and more with the same embed code.

And as if all that wasn’t enough … starting today, we’re making the upload process even simpler. Now you only need to upload ONE video file and we’ll take care of the rest. All source/master files uploaded through the producer dashboard will automatically be converted to LD and SD quality files for playback in our Flash player, as well as iOS/Android devices and set-top boxes. Talk about one-stop shopping. As always, if you have a Pro account we’ll automatically perform HD and optional MP3 conversions for you, too.

All of this is part of blip.tv’s commitment to providing you the best tools and support to reach the largest possible audience, so you can focus on what you do best: producing the best original web series.

Stay tuned,
