New call-to-action

Why Should I See Wowza At IBC 2026?

Since last year, Wowza has been hard at work optimizing the Wowza Streaming Engine infrastructure used in more than 35,000 video deployments across over 170 countries. Wowza also launched the Video Intelligence Framework (VIF), integrated with NVIDIA Synthetic Video Detector, earlier this year to help teams run AI video workflows on their hardware, in their deployment ecosystems, on their terms.

Streaming Media announced that Wowza Streaming Engine won the 2026 Streaming Media Readers’ Choice Awards for Real-Time Streaming Solution. Twenty years later and the powerful, reliable streaming server is still being named a leader, as voted on by readers.

VIF was also named one of three finalists for Streaming Innovation of the Year, only a couple months after launching. With NVIDIA Synthetic Video Detector (SVD), VIF is also a finalist for the Products, Services, and Monetization IAMT Impact Award. This shows the value of the Video Intelligence Framework for modern video workflows where synthetic content is a real concern.

Where Can I Find Wowza At IBC 2026?

At IBC Amsterdam 2026, Wowza will be joining select partner pavilions and booths to showcase our integrated offerings, as well as a joint speaking session with NVIDIA at the AWS Theater.

Meet With Wowza At The Dell Future Tech Hall, Booth 14.D43

Visit the Dell Future Tech Hall to see a demo of Wowza Streaming Engine and VIF with SVD running on a Dell workstation. This stand serves as the primary demo floor for the week. See how VIF and SVD can detect synthetic videos in real time on live feeds to trigger review workflows and moderation. NVIDIA, Wowza, and Dell experts will be there to answer any questions you may have.

See Wowza At The NETINT Partner Pavilion, Booth 1.D49

Wowza will also showcase Wowza Streaming Engine and VIF at the NETINT Partner Pavilion. Here, demos will show Wowza Streaming Engine and VIF running on a Quadra video processing unit (VPU) server, and VIF running on an NVIDIA Jetson Nano beside it. Any broadcast and streaming engineers who want a scheduled technical conversation away from floor traffic can also book time with Wowza experts at this booth.

Watch The Wowza/NVIDIA Presentation At The AWS Theater, Booth 5.C90

On Sunday, Wowza and NVIDIA take the stage at the AWS Theater to talk about Detecting Synthetic Video with NVIDIA and Wowza, featuring Wowza CEO Krish Kumar alongside Lewis Smithingham, Principal Product Manager for NVIDIA’s Media2. The session works through this critical problem from end to end and is a must-watch for anyone who wants to ensure they can trust their video feeds.

Synthetic video is becoming harder to distinguish by eye, and that complicates workflows that were built to trust incoming footage. The people who have to judge it usually do so under a deadline, which doesn’t scale. Krish and Lewis break down the entire pipeline. Wowza Streaming Engine is the underlying infrastructure that moves and processes the video, VIF adds the intelligence layer, and the NVIDIA Synthetic Video Detector runs within VIF as an NVIDIA NIM microservice to score video for signs of AI generation.

Having a system to identify AI-generated and manipulated content, sometimes called a “deepfake detector,” is becoming critically important for any group managing live video workflows. Newsrooms take in stringer, freelance, and syndicated material every day. Government and defense organizations screen inbound video that often cannot cross public networks. Enterprises check submitted footage before it reaches an internal audience. Each of those cases rules out shipping video to an external service for analysis after-the-fact. And there is a real cost to not catching a synthetic video before it goes live.
