Powering the Future of Cloud-Based Post Workflows with Colorfront Streaming Technology

Colorfront has been pioneering remote and cloud-based workflows for years, helping studios and post houses adapt to changing times. As cloud adoption accelerates, Colorfront Streaming Server and Streamer have become a cornerstone of cloud-based post, delivering secure, low-latency, reference-quality remote video and audio that enable critical QC and creative review sessions directly from the cloud.

Why cloud streaming matters

Cloud streaming lets teams keep media and compute in one secure place while giving artists and clients a real-time window into the work. That means:

• Fewer downloads and transfers. Work against cloud storage and compute, minimize egress, and avoid duplicated media.
  
  
• Real collaboration, anywhere. Share accurate pictures and sound with colorists, editors, VFX, and clients without shipping drives or booking rooms.
  
  
• Security by design. Content stays in the cloud or on-prem. Only encrypted pixels travel.
  
  
• Reliable reviews. Consistent picture and audio across calibrated devices improves trust in remote approvals.
  

What Streaming Server & Streamer delivers

• Reference-quality streaming. 10-bit 4:4:4 HEVC up to UHD HDR.
  
  
• Sub-second latency. Ideal for interactive grading, editorial reviews, and supervised sessions.
  
  
• Secure transport. 256-bit AES encryption and enterprise authentication.
  
  
• Flexible display support. From Apple XDR to OLED HDR TVs and emissive cinema walls.
  
  
• Dolby Vision tunneling. Uncompromised HDR mastering workflows.
  
  
• Multi-channel audio. Up to 16 channels for accurate monitoring.
  

Combined, these features make Colorfront Streaming a trusted solution for dailies, temp reviews, and final client approvals.

New: Hyper Low Latency in Streaming Player

Pair Streaming Server or Streamer with the latest Streaming Player and enable Hyper Low Latency to achieve approximately 3–4 frames or under with robust network conditions. This mode prioritizes responsiveness for interactive sessions while maintaining reference-grade picture and sound. It is ideal for color reviews, live conforms, and quick iterative feedback.

Common cloud workflows

• Editorial and finishing in the cloud. Avid, Resolve, or Baselight on GPU instances, Streaming Server for encoding, Streaming Player to view on calibrated endpoints.
  
  
• Studio or vendor reviews. Supervisors and clients view secure, color-accurate streams
• without accessing the timeline.
  
  
• Distributed teams. Multiple sites join the same session, each on approved displays, with consistent color management.
