T-VIPS CEO Jonny Dolvik
Norwegian company T-VIPS has joined the Internet television revolution by transmitting broadcast-quality video using hardware and software solutions it says saves money, increases distribution and ensures high quality pictures for traditional broadcasters, telecoms and media companies.

Illustrating the success of its systems, T-VIPS will be responsible for delivering high definition content of the English Football Premier League games to the Scandinavia region via satellite for the network Canal.

The company says its codec system based on JPEG2000 instead of MPEG2 enables it to process and distribute video with much higher and more reliable quality than competing systems, even in high definition TV.

Though small, the company has already won two prestigious awards at the industry forum IBC, one of the world’s most important exhibitions for the combined cable, satellite, terrestrial broadcasting and Internet television communities.

The first award was for best fiber optic solution in distribution and transport, while the second was for its video processors that won best terrestrial wireless contribution in distribution and transmission.

Looking to China, the group hopes to help potential partners use the new Internet protocol (IP) medium for transmission of video.

Using T-VIPS’s technologies, Chinese broadcasters and video providers can make signifi cant savings through using new IP networks for their transmissions, while enjoying more flexible and efficient use of bandwidth.

Network operators can also offer a range of video interfaces and services to their customers with a wide range of video applications, the company says.
