VisualOn Integrates New Streaming Standard at the Cable Show 2012

MPEG-DASH is now integrated into OnStream MediaPlayer+ enabling high quality media delivery to any device

SANTA CLARA, Calif. and BOSTON, May 21, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- VisualOn, Inc., a multimedia software company that provides solutions enabling high quality video and audio on any mobile platform, announced today that it has incorporated MPEG-DASH into the company's mobile media player, OnStream MediaPlayer+. This will allow operators and content providers to employ new multimedia streaming capabilities, including MPEG-DASH streams and components of the OSMP+ framework that allows easy DRM integration.

    WHAT:                       VisualOn has integrated MPEG-DASH, a new
                                standard for adaptive streaming over
                                Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP), into
                                OnStream MediaPlayer+. The solution
                                optimizes playback across any connected
                                device, further alleviating the challenges
                                of scaling high quality media delivery
                                across fragmented, multi-platform mobile
                                ecosystem. These efforts come as part of
                                VisualOn's commitment to advocate for the
                                adoption of MPEG-DASH as an international
                                standard within the market. VisualOn is a
                                member of the DASH Promoters Group.

    WHY:                        MPEG-DASH provides a high quality, quick-
                                to-market solution for content providers
                                and cable operators to unify their content
                                delivery approach across a broad range of
                                devices including PCs, TVs, laptops, set-
                                top boxes, game consoles, tablets and
                                mobiles phones. The new standard simplifies
                                the delivery of IP video and streamlines
                                workflow, allowing content providers to
                                deliver the highest quality user experience
                                with greater cost efficiency.

    WHERE:                      VisualOn will be demonstrating the MPEG-DASH
                                integration with its multimedia solutions at
                                the Cable Show on May 21-23 in Boston,
                                Mass. They are located at booth number ES-
                                81.
