Pleasanton, CA -- Arroyo Video Solutions, Inc., creator of an
innovative software infrastructure that powers the world of
personalized television, today announced that it will demonstrate for
the first time its comprehensive on demand services solution for IPTV
at this week's TelcoTV Conference & Expo in San Diego, Calif.,
November 9-10, in booth #413.
Arroyo's demonstrations at TelcoTV will show:
- Video on demand using the H.264
(MPEG-4 AVC) codec, which offers the
extra compression required to drive the most revenue from slower
last mile technologies.
- A complete, easy to install,
IPTV-based video on demand (VOD)
solution, featuring Arroyo OnDemand running on IBM x346 eServers,
integrated with leading middleware and set-top boxes. Arroyo's IPTV
solution is currently in trial with a major U.S. telecommunications
operator.
- The power of the Arroyo OnDemand
solution to meet the requirements
of IPTV markets, large and small. Starting with a single open
architecture server that is economical for even the smallest market,
Arroyo OnDemand easily grows to offer industry leading density and
scalability, as well as Arroyo's unique assurance of "Always ON,"
non-stop reliability.
- Advanced IPTV applications,
including network PVR (nPVR) and
addressable advertising, which will differentiate IPTV offerings and
maximize ARPU.

MRG's Senior Analyst and IPTV
specialist Bob Larribeau commented, "When it comes to IPTV services,
'content is king.' It's clear that success in this market depends on
the selection, packaging, and delivery of attractive content. Arroyo's
strategy of supporting a range of entertainment services such as VOD,
gaming, addressable advertising, and network PVR, can create
significant revenue generating opportunities for IPTV network
operators."
"We're excited to debut our end-end on demand solution for IPTV with
so many industry firsts - the highest performing, densest solutions
for large markets, the most economical solutions for small markets and
a range of advanced, revenue generating services for both," said
Arroyo's President and CEO Rick DeGabrielle. "This demonstration will
also feature Arroyo OnDemand's support for the new H.264 video
compression codec, which allows TV streams to be sent across ADSL
telephone lines with lower bandwidth."
Arroyo OnDemand provides the intelligence that enables multiple
independent, open standards-based hardware elements to operate as one,
delivering critical benefits over competing hardware-based video
delivery solutions. These benefits include unmatched flexibility;
effortless scalability of streams, content and ingest; and Arroyo's
"Always ON" capability that deliver 24x7 reliability and total system
availability. Arroyo OnDemand's breakthrough performance includes the
industry's first 10 Gigabit Ethernet support, unparalleled streaming
density of over 3000 2Mbps H.264 streams per rack unit, and the
ability to simultaneously ingest over 400 channels per
industry-standard server. Using Arroyo OnDemand, operators can deliver
more revenue-generating services faster, enhance customer
satisfaction, and achieve the lowest total cost of ownership in the
industry.
