I will set up ssai server side ad insertion on your live streaming server
SSAI, SCTE 35, HLS and FFmpeg Streaming Engineer
About this Gig
Ads that buffer, get blocked or break your live stream cost you money. Server-Side Ad Insertion (SSAI) fixes that: the ad is stitched into the stream itself, before it reaches the viewer.
WHAT I SET UP ON YOUR SERVER
- SSAI engine for your live HLS channel(s)
- - Full-screen ad breaks, plus L-shape, lower-third and picture-in-picture formats
- - Ad scheduler: every X minutes, fixed time slots, or SCTE-35 cues
- - GPU-accelerated FFmpeg (NVIDIA NVENC) for smooth, low-latency switching
- - Web control panel to upload ads and manage schedules (Standard and Premium)
- - Delivery-ready HLS output for web, mobile apps, Smart TV and set-top boxes
WHY SSAI
- Ad-blocker proof: the ad is part of the video, not a separate request
- - No player SDK or app update needed
- - Same experience on every device
WHO IT IS FOR
OTT and IPTV platforms, FAST channels, regional broadcasters, sports and event streamers.
HOW WE START
Message me your stream URL (or a test stream) and your server details. I will confirm feasibility before you order.
I am the engineer behind StreamAdsPro, my own SSAI product, and I set up this same stack for real channels.

FAQ
What do I need to provide?
A Linux server (Ubuntu 22.04+, NVIDIA GPU recommended), your live source (HLS, RTMP or SRT) and your ad videos in MP4.
Will ad blockers skip the ads?
No. With SSAI the ad is inside the video stream itself, so there is no separate ad request to block.
Do I need SCTE-35 markers?
No. Breaks can run on a schedule. If your source carries SCTE-35 cues, I use them.
Does it work with my player or app?
Yes. Output is standard HLS, so any HLS player works: web, Android, iOS, Smart TV and set-top boxes.
Can you connect Google Ad Manager or VAST?
Yes, as a custom add-on: VAST/VMAP ad decisioning can be wired in.
Do you support the system after delivery?
Every package includes post-delivery support for bugs. Ongoing monitoring is available as a monthly custom offer.
