Hong Kong: Digital Rapids -- the trusted provider of innovative media transformation and workflow solutions for bringing video to wider audiences -- announced today that Taiwanese charity and humanities programming provider Da Ai TV has selected Digital Rapids StreamZ Live adaptive streaming encoders to power live streaming of its news, drama and cultural content to global viewers online and through dedicated apps for mobile viewing platforms.

Da Ai TV is a key component of the outreach efforts of the Tzu Chi Foundation, a Buddhist international humanitarian organization known for its efforts and contributions in areas including charity, medicine, education and culture. Da Ai TVs activities have spanned the globe, from building schools and hospitals in China to donations for hurricane relief in the United States.

The StreamZ Live encoders transform live, high-definition source feeds into high-quality HD, SD and mobile-targeted output streams in multiple bitrates for viewing through Da Ai TVs web portal and on mobile devices. Supplied to Da Ai TV by integrator Forevertek, the StreamZ Live encoders are deployed in conjunction with Octoshape Infinite HD-M technology for optimized network delivery of the resulting streams.

Live, online streaming enables Da Ai TV to bring the message of Tzu Chi to people all across the world, extending their reach beyond geographic boundaries, said Prince Lin, Vice President of Forevertek. Digital Rapids StreamZ Live encoders provide a powerful and reliable encoding platform to enable this important communications initiative for them.

Spiritual groups and other non-profit organizations around the world are using online streaming to bring their messages to wider audiences beyond the geographic limitations inherent in traditional television distribution, said Clive Vickery, Managing Director, EMEA and Asia at Digital Rapids. The proven quality, reliability and performance of our StreamZ Live encoders make them as perfect for such usage as they are for commercial applications, and were pleased that Da Ai TV has chosen StreamZ Live to power their Internet TV and mobile initiatives.
