TVU Networks Celebrates Year of Grow in Usage, Innovation

As the year draws to a close, TVU Networks shares a year-in-review of its success and advancements as a market leader in video-over-IP acquisition, distribution, and management. In 2016, customer usage of TVU solutions, including TVU Grid, climbed more than 207% when compared to 2015. It also led the charge in 2016 with innovative new technologies, including its award-winning TVU RPS (Remote Production System), TVU MLink with H.265/HEVC and 4K encoding, integration with AP's ENPS multi-platform news production system and integration with Facebook Live.

The company also provided essential support this year to its customers during live events with worldwide audiences, including the Rio Olympics, U.S. elections, and Super Bowl 50.

Throughout our history, TVU Networks has quickly adapted to the changing landscape of live video, says Paul Shen, CEO of TVU Networks. Our newest solutions are designed to stay ahead of the curve, and we're constantly listening to feedback and taking the pulse of the industry to design solutions that meet our customers' needs before or just as the need occurs. Research shows that consumers are watching less television, but more video content. Video content production models must adapt to that viewership change. We've created new solutions this year that address these challenges.

Adds Shen, TVU has become an integral part of our customer's everyday workflow for live video acquisition, transmission and distribution. For example, during the US Elections, over 6,000 hours of live video were streamed from our transmitters. As we look ahead to 2017, we will continue to listen to our customers and rollout new solutions designed to support video production.

TVU Networks was also focused on its commitment to global expansion in 2016, with new office openings in Brazil, Mexico City, and Barcelona, and new reseller relationships formed around the world, including with ARISTON Broadcast & Telecom Solutions S.A in Greece and Cyprus, UK-based Techex and Nyja Umbodid ehf in Iceland. TVU Networks also entered into a partnership with leading UK-based satellite and broadcast systems integrator, Sat-Comm.

TVU Networks' full portfolio of video-over-IP solutions includes its flagship TVU One mobile uplink transmitter - a compact solution that delivers high-quality IP video transmission performance and features the company's patented Inverse Statmux Plus (IS+) transmission algorithm to transmit dependable HD quality video with less than one second latency. Other popular offerings in the company's product line include the award-winning TVU RPS; and TVU Anywhere a powerful tool that enables organizations to instantly capture and transmit footage from their mobile smart device. A new addition to TVU Networks' solutions is social media support, with direct streaming capabilities to Facebook Live.

TVU Networks was also recognized as a leading manufacturer in the online video space this year by Streaming Media Magazine, making the publication's annual 2016 Streaming Media 100 list for the second consecutive year.
