Improved Video Experiences with castLabs’ PRESTOplay and Conviva
Harness Conviva’s data-driven intelligence platform to improve viewing experiences within our PRESTOplay video player SDK suite.

Consumers are viewing video content across a wide variety of devices in diverse locations at all times of the day. Therefore, content publishers must be aware of changes in viewing behaviour and conditions which could indicate frustration with the playback interface, ad serving, or performance issues.

Collaborating with Conviva, we are able to deliver data-driven insights into every viewer’s quality of experience (QoE) from within our PRESTOplay SDK video player suite. Publishers can easily harness and act upon these insights to increase engagement, brand affinity, and maximize viewer satisfaction.

Every measure has been taken to ensure a high-quality, seamless integration with quick response times. This video player and video intelligence partnership is available across all browser, Android and iOS players built with PRESTOplay SDKs.
