Cloudflare TV- FAQ/Tutorials/ KB on Video

Thought it was an interesting idea. They also have live TV .Watched "Live" TV for a few minutes this morning.

I think it is a good way for some brand building in the B2B space. The focus is on both large businesses (eg. GE) and startups. That could be tricky- trying a one size fits all approach. But the schedule looks interesting. Liked the focus on specific segments (Social media, WP install, etc...)

    I was thinking that they launch similar service like Netflix :sweat_smile:

    It is advertisement but wrapped so neat, that it is actually watchable. Very nice.

    I wouldn't call it watchable. The stream is so low quality, that everytime some presenter say: "here on my presented screen you see x" you have a pixel soup in which you can't read anything, they are like the other streaming sites 15 years ago. Launching a service which is only available in 360p with low bitrate in 2020, much worse advertisement for your company you can't make.

    I believe it is adaptable. For me it is nice 1080p. I'am on GigE.

    I concur

  • Here it does not, https://live.cloudflare.tv/hls/live.m3u8 does only contain a 360p version for me.
    Speed is not the problem on my end.

    I'm from europe, so good internet connects to everywhere :p
    So crossing half the world to Cloudflares headquarter and I would still get enough throughput for a high bitrate ultra hd stream even without a cdn

    The joke was on Cloudflare since they also are a cdn company
