Net Insight's Nimbra Edge and Nimbra 400 now verified for YouTube Live

Stockholm, Sweden – Net Insight's Nimbra Edge and the Nimbra 400 series are now included in YouTube's Live verified encoders list. This confirms that the solutions have been evaluated by YouTube for live encoder compatibility and operational performance, giving broadcasters and content owners an additional layer of confidence when scaling live distribution to YouTube.

YouTube publishes a list of verified software and hardware encoders to help organizations select solutions that meet its live ingest expectations. Nimbra Edge is listed under software encoders, and Nimbra 400 is listed under hardware encoders.

Broadcasters can stream to YouTube using non-verified encoders. Verification, however, indicates the encoder has passed detailed testing designed to reduce risk in live operations—covering areas such as ingest compatibility, sustained stability, and robust behavior during fault conditions. For YouTube workflows where SRT ingest is enabled, verification also supports more predictable reliable delivery behavior over SRT.

Audience and monetization strategies increasingly require publishers to diversify outputs across platforms while maintaining operational control. In practice, many teams start with YouTube for pop-up events, experimentation, and incremental feeds—then expand into broader, always-on distribution and "YouTube first" approaches as usage grows.

With Nimbra Edge and Nimbra 400 now verified, organizations can adopt YouTube as an endpoint with greater confidence, while keeping workflows consistent across managed IP, internet, and cloud environments.

"YouTube's verification program is designed to give content owners confidence that the technology they choose will perform consistently when delivering live streams to YouTube," says Callum Hewett, Live Solutions Consultant at YouTube. "It's been great working closely with the Net Insight team; their Nimbra Edge and Nimbra 400 have successfully completed our rigorous testing for SRT and RTMP ingest, demonstrating stable and reliable ingestion. We're pleased to verify these solutions and look forward to seeing how our continued collaboration helps their partners deliver resilient, high-quality live content to YouTube."

"Broadcasters want the freedom to distribute to every relevant platform without adding fragility to their live operations," says Andreas Eriksson, CEO of Net Insight. "Being listed as a YouTube Live verified encoder is a practical proof point, we've collaborated closely on the required testing, demonstrating that our solutions are built to run stable, observable live delivery workflows, at scale."
