Thomson Video Networks + VisualOn®..DASHing To New Technology + Good ViBEs (SatBroadcasting™)


[SatNews] Thomson Video Networks and VisualOn® have partnered to implement and support the latest industry standard in...

...high-quality streaming media capabilities: MPEG Dynamic Adaptive Streaming over HTTP (MPEG-DASH). Thomson's ViBEVS7000 multi-screen video platform now delivers MPEG-DASH streams to devices using OnStreamMediaPlayer+, VisualOn's multi-media player that enables high-quality, cross-platform, audio and video playback on any device. MPEG-DASH is a new standard for streaming media over the Internet and has been incorporated into version 1.5 of the Hybrid Broadcast Broadband TV (HbbTV) initiative. HbbTV aims to bring about the harmonization of the delivery of both broadcast and broadband services to the viewer through connected TVs and STBs.


Combining functionality that would otherwise require parallel infrastructures for file-based and live encoding for multi-format output, the ViBE VS7000 video system integrates easily with external platforms through its built-in SOAP/Web services. Best-in-class video quality and highly efficient bandwidth optimization allied to the unit's compact, high-density packaging make the ViBE VS7000 a cost-effective item in capital and operational budgets.
