ABS-CBNi Expands Its Capacity for Its DTH Platform via Intelsat’s Galaxy 19 Satellite

Intelsat, Ltd., the world’s leading provider of fixed satellite services, and ABS-CBN International (ABS-CBNi), the largest Filipino-owned entertainment and broadcasting company in North America, announced today that ABS-CBNi signed a multi-year contract expansion with Intelsat. ABS-CBNi will use capacity on Intelsat’s Galaxy 19 satellite, located at 97º W, to offer its clients increased regional programming in North America via its fully-owned and operated San Francisco International Gateway teleport.

Intelsat’s Galaxy 19 satellite, which hosts the largest ethnic video platform in North America distributing nearly 180 international channels, is located within Intelsat’s premier Galaxy neighborhood.

“The growing demand for our international programming within the U.S. viewership requires that we have a solid satellite transmissions partner able to meet our expansion needs. This contract will enable our San Francisco International Gateway to deliver more news, entertainment and specialty content to target audiences in North America,” said Sherry Ann Supelana, ABS-CBNi Head of Global Engineering and Technical Services. “For more than a decade, Intelsat has played a significant role in transmitting our clients’ programming not just in North America, but throughout the world.”

“Globalizing regional programming continues to be a growth catalyst for satellite service providers,” said David Ball, Intelsat’s Vice President, Asia-Pacific. “We continue to see a surge for international programming into North America, and the reach of our Galaxy 19 satellite offers our customers the ability to maximize the value of their content, seamlessly transmitting it throughout the region.”

Intelsat will be celebrating its “20 years of HD” with an exhibition at NAB 2009 in Hall C, Booth #4937 and in the Outdoor Pavilion, Booth #E404. NAB 2009 is the tradeshow for professionals involved in the creation, management and delivery of content for the broadcasting industry, which is being held at the Las Vegas Convention Center, 20-23 April.

MobiTV Unveils mixTV – A Future Delivery Model for Mobile Television

Sinclair and PBS Partner with MobiTV to demonstrate a business model for Mobile DTV

National Association of Broadcasters Show — MobiTV, partnering with Sinclair and PBS revealed a vision for the future of mobile television, mixTV, at the National Association of Broadcasters Show (NAB).

mixTV is a potential business model for Mobile DTV, combining free Mobile DTV content with a subscription based 7-day window of on-demand programming. The mixTV demonstration opens multiple new monetization opportunities for broadcasters, mobile network operators and content providers while providing the most compelling user experience for consumers. MixTV also supports interactivity, audience measurement and dynamic ad insertion via mobile broadcast, or on-demand content over existing wireless networks.

“MobiTV, along with our outstanding partners Sinclair and PBS, are demonstrating a realistic business model for the Mobile DTV ecosystem,” said Kay Johansson, CTO, MobiTV. “We’ve seen great success with a subscriber-based business model delivering content over existing wireless networks, and this model shall evolve as new technologies become available. We are looking forward to working with our ecosystem partners to deliver on the promise of mixTV.”

For the NAB Show demonstration, mixTV will feature a combination of Mobile DTV from PBS (KLVX) and the CW (KVCW), with a seven-day library of all previously broadcast content available on-demand over Mobile WiMAX.

“We are committed to developing realistic business models for the mobile space. It has been a pleasure to build this together with MobiTV in the development of the mixTV concept,” said David Amy, EVP/CFO Sinclair.

The mixTV model also enables a more personal, relevant user experience while providing highly targeted opportunities for advertisers.

“PBS is committed to being everywhere viewers want to access programming, and to supporting the development of new ways to provide public service. The mixTV model offers some viable options to provide Mobile TV services to the public in an exciting, sustainable way,” said Andrew Russell, Senior Vice President, PBS Ventures.

mixTV is being demonstrated in the Mobile DTV Pavilion in the Rhode & Schwartz booth at the National Association of Broadcasters Show taking place at the Las Vegas Convention Center, April 20 – April 23.

“Our comprehensive 2009 line gives consumers a broad array of options for selecting a phone system to meet personal style, desired features and wallet considerations,” said Matt Ramage, senior vice president of product management, VTech Communications, Inc. “Consumers’ preferences vary widely in desired features, design and budget threshold, so we’ve created a line that offers quality, value-added features and style at any price point.”

Find Your Personal Calling

This year’s VTech “LS” series features the customizable LS6217, the next generation of VTech’s popular LS6117 “V Mix” phone. The new model is priced competitively at $34.95, with multiple options for total creative control. Personalization options include customization of the handset back graphics from the different designs included with the product, or users can create and print their own graphics using the free tool at www.vtechphones.com. To extend personalization options, the “V Mix” also includes ‘mix and match’ handset and base plates in three different colors (blue, green and orange).

MobiTV Collaborates with Sun Microsystems to Offer High-Quality Mobile TV Services

MobiTV Optimized Delivery Server Certified on Sun’s Sun Fire(TM) Enterprise Line of Servers

MobiTV, Inc, the leader in the delivery of mobile content and services, has announced that MobiTV’s Optimized Delivery Server (ODS), featuring rate adaptation, sub-second channel change, support for multicast and unicast, and exceptional video quality is now certified on Sun Fire Enterprise x64 servers.

“We are very excited to work with MobiTV to bring high-quality TV programming to mobile phones,” said Darrell Jordan-Smith, Vice President, Global Communications and Media Industry. “We are constantly working with our valued partners to help them streamline development time, advance time-to-market, and launch revenue-generating services for their service provider customers.”

In partnership with Sun, the ODS will be available as a packaged solution for customers looking for a scalable and high quality solution for the delivery of live, linear and VOD audio and video content over mobile and broadband networks.

“Our strategic partnership with Sun offered an excellent opportunity to do extensive performance testing of the ODS platform in the Sun Solution Center,” said Kay Johansson, CTO, MobiTV. “As a result of that testing, the ODS platform will be certified as a pre-packaged solution on Sun Hardware for small, medium and large-sized deployments, which can then be configured to scale with customers’ needs.”

A white paper is available from MobiTV highlighting features and functionality of ODS.
