Team Coco has transitioned its podcast studio production to a cloud-based workflow using Pronology’s StreamFile Core and Haivision’s Makito X4 encoder. The integration replaces traditional baseband SDI on-premise recording with direct recording of multi-camera feeds to Amazon S3 via SRT.
The transition at Team Coco highlights the ongoing migration of high-end podcast production from traditional broadcast hardware to flexible IP-based infrastructure. By utilizing SRT and cloud storage, the studio reduces physical hardware dependencies and enables real-time collaboration for remote social media and editorial teams. This move reflects a broader industry trend where premium digital-first creators are adopting enterprise-grade broadcast tools to handle multi-camera 4K UHD workflows. As production costs for high-fidelity video podcasts rise, the efficiency gains from centralized web-based management become a competitive necessity. Watch for whether other major podcast networks like SiriusXM or Spotify adopt similar cloud-native ingest pipelines to streamline their growing video catalogs.
Pronology's StreamFile Core has been positioned as a bridge between live IP video and post-production editing, supporting protocols beyond SRT including NDI and SMPTE ST 2110. The platform's Shot List Player feature allows production teams to sub-clip multiple camera angles with timecode frame accuracy, a capability particularly relevant for social media teams needing rapid access to VOD content from live environments. Broadcast Beat covered the deployment at Team Coco's Hollywood studio, noting that the Makito X4 encoder delivers video at ultra-low latency over IP networks for secure streaming to cloud destinations.
Haivision has continued to expand its Makito encoder line for contribution and production use cases. The Makito X4 supports encoding in resolutions up to 4K UHD or up to four simultaneous HD sources with HEVC and H.264 codec support. AVNetwork reported that the combined Pronology and Haivision solution replaced traditional baseband SDI recording at Team Coco, enabling a single operator to manage all camera feeds and recordings through a web interface connected to Amazon S3 storage.
The SRT protocol that underpins this workflow has become a de facto standard for low-latency video contribution over unpredictable networks. Haivision originally developed SRT and open-sourced it in 2017, and the protocol now has broad ecosystem support across encoders, decoders, and cloud platforms. The Makito X4's native SRT support allows Team Coco to stream multi-camera feeds directly to cloud storage without intermediate on-premise recording hardware, reducing both capital expenditure and operational complexity for video podcasting industry growth studios producing multiple shows per week.
Team Coco has transitioned its Hollywood podcast studio to an IP-based cloud production workflow. By replacing traditional SDI hardware with Haivision Makito X4 encoders and Pronology StreamFile Core, the studio now streams multi-camera feeds directly to Amazon S3. This shift reduces physical hardware dependencies and enables efficient, real-time remote collaboration.
