November 14, 2008 - Midwest Video Solutions (MVS), a US provider of IPTV headend services to other telecoms providers, has selected Motorola's MPEG-4 Network Encoder for deployment by the end of the year, enabling MVS to migrate to two diverse MPEG-2 headend platforms at separate locations on a single consolidated MPEG-4 platform.
The new upgrade to the Motorola multi-channel MPEG-4 AVC network encoder is expected to streamline the delivery of content while accelerating the delivery of personalised media experiences and increasing programming choice. MVS was formed earlier this year by three local telcos and provides IPTV services to 16 member companies throughout the Upper Midwest and internationally.
“After an extensive competitive testing process, Motorola’s network encoders demonstrated superior video quality and cost effectiveness, giving us confidence in our purchasing decision,” said Marty Snustead, Executive Director of Midwest Video Solutions. “This implementation will enable MVS to offer its members higher quality IPTV services at greater distances and provide additional streams to their subscribers.”
