IBC 2026: Join us!

From streaming data to action: CMCD v2, machine learning and agentic investigation

IBC is returning to Amsterdam from 11–14 September 2026, and this year EINBLIQ.IO will be exhibiting as part of the German Pavilion. Meet us at booth 3.B48c to see how high-fidelity streaming observability can accelerate the journey from detecting a problem to understanding and resolving it.

Streaming teams already have access to enormous volumes of player, CDN and workflow data. The challenge is no longer simply collecting more telemetry. It is finding the relevant signals, connecting viewer-side effects with delivery-side evidence and turning those findings into confident operational decisions.

That is what we will be demonstrating at IBC 2026:

Joint demo with Hydrolix

At IBC, we’ll show a work-in-progress integration with Hydrolix that combines full-fidelity CDN observability with EINBLIQ.IO’s session-aware ML and agentic investigation. Findings are written back into Hydrolix for direct drill-down into the underlying evidence. Read more…

Connecting client-side QoE with CDN-side QoS

EINBLIQ.IO combines high-fidelity client telemetry with CDN logs, request-level delivery information, video workflow data and other operational sources where these are available through the agreed integration.

Our SPECTRA data layer ingests, standardises and sessionises this information, creating a unified view of the streaming delivery chain. This makes it possible to translate viewer-visible effects (such as rebuffering, quality reductions or playback failures) into concrete CDN-side evidence.

Streaming teams can determine which viewers, devices, applications, regions, ISPs or delivery components are affected. The same evidence also enables more focused collaboration with CDN and technology partners, helping them identify and address specific service issues.

CMCD v2: richer signals, available faster

Common Media Client Data version 2 was finalised by the Consumer Technology Association’s WAVE Project and published in April 2026 as CTA-5004-B. The updated specification allows structured player data to be communicated consistently to CDNs and third-party data services.

At IBC, we will showcase EINBLIQ.IO as a native CMCD v2 endpoint, including support for event mode.

Event mode allows player-side events to be delivered directly to our platform, making richer signals available faster for automated investigation, decision support and multi-CDN analysis. It also extends observability beyond conventional delivery metrics to additional context such as player error messages, application events and Dynamic Ad Insertion information.

Machine learning finds the patterns. Agents investigate them.

More telemetry alone does not solve the observability challenge. Relevant issues are often hidden within billions of otherwise normal events.

OurFOCUS platform combines high-throughput machine learning with domain-aware AI agents:

• Machine learning detects anomalies, hidden issue clusters and patterns that teams may not have been actively looking for.

• Specialised agents verify whether a finding is meaningful, assess viewer impact and compare affected and unaffected groups.

• The platform investigates likely root causes and recommends the appropriate next step.

• Relevant, investigated findings reach the responsible team through configured workflows. Content Steering actions shown at the event were part of the scoped demonstration and integration.

The result is not simply another dashboard or a conversational interface layered onto existing analytics. EINBLIQ.IO helps streaming teams move from “something went wrong” to “this is what happened, this is who was affected and this is what to do next.”

Used on live production traffic during a major international sports tournament in 2026. By combining CMCD-based playback signals with multi-CDN delivery logs, EINBLIQ.IO provided evidence for investigation.
