2019 流媒体 Readers' Choice Awards: Make Your 提名 Now
Today we begin accepting nominations for the 2019 流媒体 Readers' Choice Awards. It's the only awards program in which the winners are decided by the people who matter most—you, 终端用户.
今年我们推出了30个奖项, 如下所述, including new categories for hardware input devices for live production, 硬件ABR编码器, 每部编码, 以及质量控制/监控平台. 任何人, 包括供应商本身, 可以提名, and only one nomination is necessary for a given product or service. We will only accept one nomination per company per category; in some cases, it may make more sense to nominate a product line than a single product. Our editorial team will evaluate all the nominations and then announce the final nominations when voting begins.
提名 今天开放，一直持续到8月2日. After we've had a chance to sort through your recommendations, we'll open award voting August 12. 与往年不同的是, companies will not be able to solicit their employees to vote for their nominees; we don't want this contest to be decided based on the number of employees a company has. 投票将于10月1日结束, and later that month we'll announce the finalists—the top three vote-getters in each category.
