Qview is a media-streaming platform that enables creators to effectively deliver video into satellite dependent communities without losing copyright control or ownership.

Qview is split into 2 parts named QvCentral (QvC) and QvLocal (QvL).

QvC is hosted in Ottawa and provides southerners with easy access to northern content while providing northerners with a single repository optimized for delivery over all backbone types.

QvL is a community-based server designed specifically for satellite communities. The purpose of QvL is to dramatically reduce backbone congestion and provide a better experience for the viewer at a much lower (or zero) usage consumption.

SSi Canada is proud to be involved with The Inuit Broadcasting Corporation in a pilot project aimed at bringing culturally relevant content, free of charge, to the 3 regional capitals of Nunavut (Cambridge Bay, Rankin Inlet, and Iqaluit)!

Don't hesitate to contact us if you are interested in having your own streaming channel.
