What was the problem?
Cartoon TV Plus needed to stream thousands of licensed animated episodes to young viewers worldwide without video stutter, long buffering times, or unmoderated content risks. The challenge was to deliver adaptive HLS video streaming while providing kid-safe navigation and parental controls across mobile and smart TV screens.
