What We Build for Entertainment
OTT streaming, music streaming, media asset management, recommendation engines, gaming portals, digital ticketing, live streaming, fan engagement, rights management, and media analytics.
OTT Video Streaming Platform
End-to-end OTT platform — video ingest and transcoding pipeline (FFmpeg, AWS Elemental), adaptive bitrate delivery (HLS/DASH), CDN integration (CloudFront, Akamai), multi-DRM (Widevine, PlayReady, FairPlay), subscription/PPV/TVOD billing, smart TV and Roku apps, offline downloads, continue-watching, watchlist, and real-time viewer analytics.
Music & Podcast Streaming Platform
Spotify/Apple Music-style audio streaming — audio ingest and encoding, adaptive audio streaming, royalty calculation engine, artist and label CMS, playlist management, curated and algorithmic playlist generation, podcast hosting and RSS feeds, social sharing, offline playback, cross-platform SDK (web, iOS, Android), and label/distributor rights management.
Media Asset Management (MAM)
Centralised digital asset management for media companies — video/audio/image ingest and cataloguing, metadata tagging (manual and AI-automated), format conversion and proxy generation, content search and retrieval, rights and licence tracking, multi-user access control, integration with Avid, Adobe Premiere and editing workflows, and CDN publishing automation.
Content Recommendation Engine
AI-powered personalisation — collaborative filtering and content-based recommendation models, real-time user behaviour signals (watch time, skips, ratings, searches), contextual recommendations (time-of-day, device, location), editorial override capability, A/B testing framework, cold-start handling for new users, and uplift tracking dashboards.
Gaming Platform & Portal
Gaming web portal and platform — game catalogue management, user account and profile system, leaderboards and achievement badges, in-app purchase and wallet, multiplayer lobby and matchmaking API integration, game analytics dashboard, developer API for indie game publishers, social features (friends list, share scores), and age-gating compliance.
Digital Ticketing & Event Management
End-to-end digital ticketing — event creation and seat map management, dynamic pricing and early-bird tiers, barcode/QR ticket generation, mobile wallet integration (Apple Wallet, Google Wallet), fraud prevention (ticket transfer restrictions, unique barcode per entry), gate scanner app, post-event analytics, and fan CRM integration.

Entertainment Clients
Streaming platforms, ticketing companies, and music groups on building entertainment technology with 1Solutions.
1Solutions built our OTT streaming platform from scratch — video ingest, adaptive bitrate HLS, Widevine DRM, web and mobile apps, subscription billing, and a recommendation engine. We went from concept to 50,000 paying subscribers in 14 months. The recommendation engine alone increased average session length by 38%. Exceptional media tech team.
We commissioned 1Solutions to build our digital ticketing platform for live music venues. Seat map management, dynamic pricing, QR ticket generation, Apple Wallet integration, gate scanner app — all delivered on time for our busiest season. Zero downtime on 14 sell-out events. The fraud prevention features reduced counterfeit tickets by 94%.
1Solutions built our music royalty management system to replace an error-prone spreadsheet process. DDEX ingest, royalty calculation for 1.2M tracks, monthly statement generation, and a partner portal for labels and distributors. Calculation time dropped from 3 weeks to 4 hours. Dispute rate dropped by 71%.
Why Entertainment Companies Choose 1Solutions
OTT architecture depth, AI recommendation capability, music industry standards, live event scalability, multi-device publishing, and rights management complexity.
70+ Media & Entertainment Projects
1Solutions has built OTT platforms, music streaming apps, digital ticketing systems, royalty management tools, fan engagement platforms, and media analytics dashboards for studios, broadcasters, labels, and event companies globally.
Video Streaming Architecture Depth
HLS/DASH adaptive streaming, multi-CDN strategy (CloudFront, Akamai, Fastly), origin shielding, multi-DRM (Widevine, PlayReady, FairPlay), video transcoding pipelines (FFmpeg, AWS Elemental), and smart TV SDK development — real streaming expertise.
AI Recommendation Engine Capability
Collaborative filtering, content-based models, session-aware recommendations, cold-start handling, and A/B testing frameworks — we build recommendation systems that measurably increase engagement and reduce churn, not just install third-party widgets.
Music Industry Standards
DDEX, CWR, and PRO integration (ASCAP, BMI, APRA, PRS), mechanical and performance royalty calculation logic, and ISRC/ISWC management — we understand music industry data standards, not just audio streaming tech.
Live Event & High-Concurrency Experience
Building for concert ticket on-sales and live sport streams means handling enormous concurrent spikes. We load-test to production-equivalent levels, implement queue-based traffic shaping, and use auto-scaling architectures that handle 100x normal traffic without degradation.
Multi-Device Publishing
Web (React), iOS (Swift/React Native), Android (Kotlin/React Native), Smart TV (Samsung Tizen, LG webOS), Roku, and Fire TV — we build and maintain native or cross-platform apps across all entertainment consumption surfaces.
Rights & Licensing Complexity
Entertainment software is unusually complex around rights — territory restrictions, window management, exclusive licencing periods, format rights (cinema, SVOD, AVOD, DVD). We understand these business rules and build flexible rights engines rather than simple flags.
Post-Launch Growth Support
We track content performance, recommendation model accuracy, and subscriber retention metrics post-launch and iterate. Entertainment products need ongoing tuning — we stay involved beyond the go-live day.
