Streaming21 and Pixelmetrix Announce Strategic Partnership

NAB Las Vegas, April 17, 2007 – Streaming21, the world leader in broadcast-quality streaming solutions, and Pixelmetrix, the global expert in preventive monitoring for digital television and IPTV networks, today announced that the companies have entered into a new strategic partnership to develop and market end-to-end IPTV solutions. The first product of this partnership will be the DVShift-S21, which provides end-to-end video time shift solution.

DVShift-S21 is integrated with the Media Relay Server, enabling reliable transmission of MPEG-TS over public internet, and offers a cost-effective solution compared to transmission via satellite or leased line.

“The strategic partnership with Streaming21 provides a brilliant solution to drive broadcast quality transmission over the internet. In-depth tests and trials are underway, and DVShift-S21 will be launched as an indispensable application that complements our DVShift MPEG-TS Time Shifter,” said Hideki Takahashi, Pixelmetrix Operations Manager.

Dr. Joe Lin, President and CEO of Streaming21 said, “Pixelmetrix has built an international reputation for providing preventative monitoring solution to digital broadcasters and telecom operators. We are confident that combining Pixelmetrix's expertise in digital network monitoring with Streaming21's proven track record of delivering carrier-class streaming solutions to worldwide IPTV providers will create exciting future growth opportunities for both companies."

The Streaming21 patented streaming delivery enables a reliable video transport through an open network environment. This reliable delivery embeds controlled rates to avoid congestion of network during high traffic volume, and faster delivery during off-peak time. The unique HTTP protocol option enables a seamless video delivery through multiple firewalls.

At the NAB Booth SU12109, Pixelmetrix will showcase an exciting repertoire of newly launched monitoring platforms and spotlight on its True End-to-End IPTV Forensics, Disaster Recovery, Compliance Recording and Streamlined Headend Monitoring solutions, among others.
