Introduction
Elias Arier, the Key Account Manager for Canon Central & North Africa. He plays a vital role in broadcasting sports events for FIFA+ in Algeria. We had a conversation at ISE 2025 about his experiences using Yolobox Ultra. With a mission to deliver high-quality streaming of FIFA+, he uses YoloBox Ultra as his go-to solution for sports live streaming.
He relies on over 16 YoloBox Ultras to cover a wide range of live sports broadcasts across the country. YoloBox ensures a seamless, professional experience for both local and global audiences.
What is FIFA+?
FIFA+ is an innovative digital platform developed by the Fédération Internationale de Football Association (FIFA). It provides fans worldwide with free access to live sports content, including football matches, documentaries, and exclusive behind-the-scenes features. FIFA+ brings the excitement of global football to fans everywhere. It streams games and sports content from various leagues and tournaments, offering unparalleled access to the world of football.
Why Choose 16 YoloBox Ultras?
Elias decided to deploy 16 YoloBox Ultras across Algeria for several key reasons. First, Algeria is a large country, and Elias needs to cover sports events in various regions, streaming them live to FIFA+. With multiple Ultras in place, he can ensure that every event, no matter the location, is seamlessly broadcasted, making it easier for fans to access live content on FIFA+.
Second, using all Ultras gives Elias the convenience of managing every device under a single account. This centralized control allows him to easily oversee all the units and replicate previous settings for each broadcast. It simplifies the process and reduces setup time for each new event.
Finally, the portability and ease of use of YoloBox Ultra were crucial for Elias. Since the devices are simple to operate, he doesn’t need to spend excessive time training staff in different regions. This means he can deploy the Ultras quickly and efficiently.
Why YoloBox Ultra is the Perfect Fit for Sports Streaming
For Elias, sports live streaming is about more than just delivering content; it’s about creating a dynamic and high-quality experience for viewers. Here’s why YoloBox Ultra stands out as the ideal tool for his work with FIFA+:
Exceptional Video Quality for Streaming
Sports fans expect the best visual experience, and YoloBox Ultra delivers. Ultra supports up to 4K streaming/recording. Therefore, it ensures that every match is presented in stunning detail, making it perfect for fast-paced sports events. The rich, vibrant video quality enhances the viewing experience, keeping audiences engaged no matter where they are watching.
Multicam Replay Capabilities
In sports broadcasting, having multiple camera angles is essential to capture all the action. YoloBox Ultra’s multicam capabilities allow Elias to effortlessly switch between different angles in real-time. It offers viewers a more immersive experience. Also, it can capture every angle for highlights. Ultra allows you to adjust replay settings, adding logo/intro/outro.
Easy-to-Use Control with YoloDeck
The YoloDeck provides Elias with an intuitive, physical control surface for his YoloBox Ultra units. This means that managing his broadcasts during fast-moving sports events is simple and effective. The ability to quickly switch scenes, adjust settings, or trigger specific actions with just a press of a button is critical when working in a live sports environment, where timing and precision are everything. The Ultra’s user-friendly interface, combined with the YoloDeck’s tactile controls, makes it an ideal choice for Elias and his team.
Flexibility and Reliability Across Multiple Locations
With over 16 YoloBox Ultras deployed across Algeria, Elias values the reliability and versatility of the device. Whether broadcasting a local match or an international tournament, Ultra provides him with the flexibility to scale up or down based on the specific requirements of each event. The robust connectivity options, including NDI support, ensure that he can seamlessly integrate different camera feeds and sources into the live stream without worrying about connectivity issues.
Feature Request for Ultra
Elias also shared a feature request with us. He wants the ability to adjust the bitrate and frame rate without pausing the live stream. This would allow for even greater flexibility during live events, especially in dynamic environments where conditions can change quickly. Making these adjustments on the fly would ensure that the stream maintains optimal quality without any interruptions, giving streamers like Elias even more control over their broadcasts.

Elias Arier’s work with FIFA+ is a testament to the power of YoloBox Ultra in the world of sports live streaming. With over 16 units in use across Algeria, YoloBox Ultra continues to play a crucial role in FIFA+ streaming.
