This documentary is very old and pre-dates the internet.
There's no denying the extent of Globo's influence. But, compared to the 80's, it's merely a shadow of it's former self. Probably because of the internet. Also, there are other communication vehicles fighting for eyeballs now.
Politics aside, its IT arm 'globo.com' is pretty modern and open.

The ire lingers, though. Sometimes Globo shows up to report on something and they essentially get kicked out of the area (by the people near the event). This may be a combination of how it tends to report on certain subjects and leftover distrust from the past decades.

#9Interesting post! The author mentions that the first step was to "receive this input and to generate HLS output to a known folder". I have a couple questions about this step:
1: Did they re-encode the input? Or just repackage it?
2: I'm unfamiliar with EvoStream, but if it is ingesting RTMP and outputting HLS, why did Globo need to bother generating an HLS manifest? Couldn't they just use the one EvoStream created?

I am glad you liked. I am not the author of the blog post, but I was a member of the team.
1: We just repackage it. 2: The problem is that EvoStream stores the manifests and chunks locally and we needed high availability. That's why we use an external data storage. We have had up to 30 simultaneous streams, with 7 bitrates each and 2 hours of DVR.
