MediaBox VS-2601 launched for multi-format video streaming;
Adjudged
“Killer App of the Month” by Open Sound Systems.
SILICON VALLEY, Ca. (Feb. 15,
2002) – iTuner Networks Corporation today announced a new
breakthrough in video streaming with MediaBox VS-2601.
Adjudged “Killer Application of the Month” by Open Sound Systems
(www.opensound.com),
the MediaBox VS-2601 offers
‘today’s best price/performance solution for video streaming,’
according to iTuner.
“We have simplified video streaming by integrating multiple
encoders and servers into a single robust device. This has
enabled us to cut device and administration costs
significantly,” said Raluca Neacsu, MediaBox Product Manager.
According to iTuner, MediaBox is the only range of streaming
devices built on the Linux OS- the industry standard for open
platform architecture. “Its platform-independence enables the
MediaBox VS-2601 to serve thousands of RealAudio, RealVideo,
MP3, Vorbis and QTSS streams while allowing simultaneous
encoding in MP3, Vorbis and RealAudio formats. At the same time,
its browser-based administration makes for easy and profitable
deployment of video applications over the Internet.
The new launch follows close upon the heels of the widely
acclaimed MediaBox AS product family, which has already found
its niche among leading radio stations. “The MediaBox VS-2601 underlines iTuner’s capability to
provide a competitive turnkey solution to Television channels in
need of high-speed network infrastructure and proven technical
expertise,” said Neacsu.
