Leading 3G carriers use Anystream Agility to convert broadcast video for
wireless handsets
September 15, 2003
Anystream, a provider of encoding software solution, announced its selection
in major 3G service implementations including Hutchison Whompoa Hong Kong,
Hutchison 3G Australia, mobilkom austria, and T-Systems International.
For these carriers, Agility automates the complex process of repackaging
broadcast video source material for use within each provider's unique
3G service offerings. In addition to delivering end-to-end automation,
Agility leverages its broadcast news heritage to provide the industry's
fastest on- air-to-handset turn around times. Agility's fault-tolerant
design, proven in the world's most demanding mission-critical broadcast
environments, enables it to meet stringent carrier reliability standards.
Agility simplifies complex carrier encoding workflows by automatically
acquiring sports, news and other content from live satellite feed, tape
decks, or digital file sources. It interfaces with asset management systems
and extracts appropriate metadata for video clips, then uses pre-set profiles
to encode clips into dozens of formats, each designed to optimize the
end user's handset display. Finally, Agility delivers pristine encoded
files to the carrier's delivery store for network transmission and automatically
creates high-quality archive versions for archive storage.
"In April, mobilkom austria launched Austria's first commercial UMTS
network in order to deliver exciting new data services to our clients
including streaming video," said Gunter Schuster, mobilkom austria IT
Project Manager. "We deployed Anystream's Agility software as our automated
content encoding system because it not only meets our stringent quality
and time requirements, but provides around-the-clock reliability."
"As Europe's leading wireless systems integrator, Siemens has been at
the forefront of the world's most innovative 2.5G and 3G implementations.
Several Siemens m.traction media streaming projects have included Anystream's
Agility software serving as the central encoding workflow automation solution.
We have been impressed with the system's flexibility in integrating with
legacy media storage, editing and asset management systems, as well as
its ability to reliably deliver carrier-grade service levels," said Peter
Winkler, head of sales, Siemens Information and Communications Mobile
Solutions.
"Anystream was one of the first major encoding software providers to
integrate PacketVideo's 3GPP encoder, and has remained a technology leader
to this day. Anystream's Agility software has an excellent reputation
in the industry, and we are pleased to reference it to our customers when
major integration projects call for a data center-class encoding workflow
automation solution," Dann Wilkens, marketing vice president, PacketVideo.
