Datmedia’s
datpresenter™ DPX V2.0 software (www.datpresenter.com) will stream
selected news stories in 3GPP and MPEG4 formats to 3G cell phones as
well as via the internet. It is one of the most technically advanced
browser-based, install-free rich media players on the market and has
been customised to suit the requirements of the IBC TV News site.
The site’s user-friendly navigation allows viewers to search IBC
news clips by category, day, year or keyword, and play audio-video
clips using Real Player or Windows Media Player. This year, there is
an additional selection of links to the main sections of IBC,
including mobile clips, podcasts and which channels delegates can
tune in to from their hotel room. Its features include a facility to
view full screen video, download or view accompanying rich media
files and documents. The design and colour scheme of the new player
skin compliments the look and feel of the 2006 search catalogue as
well as the main IBC TV News web site.
It is the third year that Datmedia and partners Digital Rapids (www.digital-rapids.com)
have been chosen to deliver streaming services to IBC TV News. A
complete archive of last year’s stories is available as well as the
latest news as it happens at IBC 2006. The software’s XHTML-based
administration tools have drastically cut production time for both
video stream and supporting timeline media. Stories will be fed live
via SDI from the IBC TV News edit suites, and encoded in real time
to Windows and Real media formats by Digital Rapids. Digital Rapids’
StreamZ encoding system will then automatically transfer the files
to Datmedia’s servers for hosting.
Stephen Clee, Managing Director of Datmedia, said: “datpresenter™
software has been used very successfully for previous years’ IBC TV
News and delegates are again ensured a high-quality experience.
Online viewers need only a standard PC with a desktop browser and
internet connection to view this year’s events and last year’s
archives.”
