Platform-Ready HLS Output
HLS output compatible with every major FAST platform — Roku, Samsung TV Plus and more.
Reach viewers on Roku, Samsung TV Plus, Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex, and LG Channels with SCTE-35-ready HLS delivery, live transcoding, and a global CDN. Your viewers watch free. You pay only infrastructure cost — no platform fees, no revenue share.
The FAST market — Roku, Samsung TV Plus, Tubi, Pluto TV, Plex, LG Channels — is growing fast, but so are its infrastructure demands. Linear streaming with ad break requirements is fundamentally different from web delivery, and most CDNs aren’t built for it.
5centsCDN is. We provide the complete delivery stack for FAST operators: live transcoding into platform-ready ABR streams, SCTE-35 ad markers delivered intact for platform-side ad insertion, and global CDN distribution to platform ingest points at scale. Want platforms like Roku to handle ad insertion? We support it. Prefer to run your own SSAI? We support that too — from the same infrastructure.
Whether you’re a content owner launching your first FAST channel, a broadcaster going free ad-supported, or an OTT operator building a multi-platform linear strategy — 5centsCDN gets you live and keeps you growing.
HLS output compatible with every major FAST platform — Roku, Samsung TV Plus and more.
Ad break markers pass-through to platforms for their own insertion — no SSAI needed unless you want it.
Full ABR ladder from your ingest — smooth playback on any device or connection speed.
Low-latency distribution to FAST platform ingest endpoints worldwide.
Platform-side or self-run SSAI — both workflows supported from the same stack.
Handle traffic spikes and multi-platform distribution — no encoder farms or CDN origin to manage.
Multiple bitrate/resolution renditions from a single ingest — adaptive playback across CTV, mobile, and web.
Preserve encoder-generated markers or have 5centsCDN inject them at the CDN level for streams without native support.
Ingest your live channel feed via SRT or RTMP — both fully supported across transcoding and marker workflows.
SCTE-35 signals output as standard #EXT-X-CUE-OUT / #EXT-X-CUE-IN tags — compatible with all major FAST ad systems.
Built-in redundancy at the origin layer ensures your channel feed stays live and continuous — even if a single ingest path fails.
Manage transcoding profiles, monitor stream health, and trigger ad breaks programmatically via the 5centsCDN API.
