Building an enterprise streaming network isn’t about limiting access to your content or keeping it locked inside of your mobile and desktop streaming apps. For maximum reach, you want content to be discoverable and streamable everywhere across your business. uStudio’s platform helps you strike the balance of making your media widely accessible to your workforce, while keeping it secure from the outside world.

We provide not only best-in-class, media-first mobile and desktop apps that offer consumer-grade experiences, but also a suite of tools for making your content available across other important applications your organization uses everyday: think CRMs like Salesforce.com, Learning Management Systems like Cornerstone or Saba, company intranets like SharePoint, or messaging tools like Slack.

To facilitate discovery of content across your organization, you can link to an audio or video episode or an entire series with the use of promotional embeds or smart links. But sometimes, you want a piece of content to stream exactly where your audience is, so they can receive exactly the information they need when they need it, without having to navigate anywhere else.

Easy Player Embeds provide secure domain-locked players right in the application where you want your content to stream. Our audio and video media players allow you to embed a product demo alongside a product page on your intranet or LMS, or you can place an audio player alongside a newsletter post or article from your CEO to serve as an “audio article” companion.

While uStudio has always supported player embeds, we’ve made it much easier to enable all administrators with this capability so that they can be used more broadly as an essential part of your content strategy.

Here’s how it works.

Administrators can create media players of any episode that has been published to a show in the content management console. Simply navigate to a published episode to grab an embed code for the desired application. uStudio handles all the processing necessary to render the audio or video in the application where your audience will discover it, providing a seamless playing experience for end users that feels native to the application they are using.

Best of all, you’ll not only be able to get information about those plays within your uStudio Dashboard, you’ll also be able to analyze how much traction media is receiving across all the applications it is being delivered.

Easy Player Embeds are sure to boost the plays on your content, making your audio and video accessible through the library housed in the uStudio application as well as contextually throughout the applications your workforce uses in daily workflows.
