Mogulus Pro Launches

Pete Prestipino — Thu, 04 Dec 2008 19:12:00 GMT

The Mogolus video platform has made a pro version of its offering available. If you have the resources, I highly advise you look into it, especially if you're a believer in video and streaming that content.

Pro accounts will automatically have Mogulus network overlay ads removed and users can opt in to use supported ad networks such as Google Adsense for Video or ScanScout to monetize their content. Mogulus is also offering analytics with the pro accounts. Users will be able to access statistics on viewer minutes, unique viewers, channel usage, content, embedded players, referrers and more.

Mogulus has also made some significant improvements to the quality of the platform in Pro accounts. Pro channels users can opt to broadcast HD-quality streams (up to 1.7 mbps) with On2 VP6 encoded media transcoded on Mogulus servers.

Most notably for me is that Pro accounts can remove the Mogulus logo and all Mogulus-related links from the Player for a completely self-branded user experience.

Mogulus Gets Google Overlay Ads

Pete Prestipino — Wed, 28 May 2008 19:26:00 GMT

Starting tomorrow (May 29th, 2008) all free Mogulus accounts will see Google overlay advertisements displayed within their videos channels and embedded on Mogulus players. Despite Mogulus Pro not being available by credit card on the site, Mogulus is allowing an opt-out option which will allow video producers to disable the adverts on their channel - instructions on how to do that are on the site.

From the email announcement: "We hope you will agree that the ads are not too intrusive and, particularly in this first phase, we sincerely hope that you will leave them enabled. Advertising on Mogulus Free channels will help us to offset some of the high hosting bandwidth costs we are incurring every month and allow us to keep the free platform exactly that...free! We'll also be evaluating just how effective the ads are and this will help us plan a future release of advertising revenue share programs for selected Mogulus producers."

You can see these advertisements in action on "The Digital LifeStyle":

Mogulus Live Broadcast Pro

Pete Prestipino — Wed, 16 Apr 2008 14:36:00 GMT

Live Web Broadcasting solution Mogulus announced its professional level offering this week. The platform enables companies to launch their own Internet-based television projects, cover live events, and even do some re-broadcasting.

The features of Mogulus Pro include a white-label or skinless player (no branding, and advertising-free), analytics, and higher quality video options including HD Live and On-Demand, H.264, and 16/9. There is also access to Mogulus APIs, time-based autop[ilot scheduling, private channels, additional storage and priority transcoding. I've done some rough-testing with the standard version of Mogulus and have to say that it's perhaps the best available solution in the market to date.
