Cinegy GmbH, the premier provider of software-defined television technology, has extended the ingest facility at leading Brazilian sports company LiveMode, working together with its partner MDotti, the specialist systems integrator based in São Paulo.
LiveMode has taken a fresh, all-embracing approach to sports rights and marketing in Brazil, connecting a broad range of sports to live audiences across platforms, maximizing engagement and returns. Working across more than 10 platforms – including the CazéTV channel – and reaching more than 100 million people, LiveMode holds the rights to major global sports and events, including the streaming and capturing of the 2026 World Cup.
The nature of the business means that LiveMode has to be extremely agile, ingesting multiple simultaneous streams securely, managing huge amounts of content, and ensuring media is correctly transcoded and formatted for all the different platforms it serves. The company first sought to evaluate Cinegy Capture as the ingest device in 2024, where a proof-of-concept exercise managed by MDotti resulted in the purchase of four licenses. LiveMode has now returned to add six more licenses, bringing the total to 18 full HD channels working simultaneously 24/7, ready for a very busy summer of sport in 2026.
“Cinegy Capture has proven to be an ideal platform for us, ensuring ingest recordings are managed, whatever the contribution feed: 4k coverage is routine today, and Cinegy is ready for 8k should that be needed,” said Fabio Augusto Gomes Couto, Audiovisual Producer, LiveMode. “The agility of the software solution means we can deploy our licenses on the right hardware for each job, giving us an extremely powerful and completely flexible solution.”
Cinegy technology is entirely software-based and hardware agnostic. This is particularly crucial today where the price and availability of hardware is unpredictable: the ability to build solutions for major projects cost-effectively is a vital business advantage.
“Cinegy is very fast and easy to deploy”, explained Henrique Jurgens, IT Infrastructure Architect, Media, Streaming, Cloud and OTT at LiveMode. “Once you receive the license, the operation can be running the same day. We are regularly working at many live sport events at the same time, and easy deployment of ingest and content management makes our entire operation run smoother.”
Sergio Alexeev, International Sales Manager at Cinegy added “With our partner MDotti, we worked to show LiveMode how our software approach delivered the functionality they needed and more. Cinegy Capture has proved its worth to them, and it is great to see them return to us for expansion. It also gives us the opportunity to show how our other software tools could fit into the LiveMode technology environment, using it across more than 10 editing workstations, and we look forward to much more collaboration in the future.”
