DWJ Television lediting of video projects on the Net
DWJ Television's clients will be able to participate in the editing
of video projects from anywhere they can log onto the Internet. DWJ is
able to offer this new service thanks to new VDOLive technology which enables
real-time video broadcasts over the Internet. Using VDOLive's broadcast
server, DWJ is able to create a direct link from one of its Avid non-linear
editing suites to DWJ's website, thereby bringing edit sessions right to
clients' desktops. VDOLive is one of the leading products for broadcasting
video in real time over the Internet. By taking advantage of "streamed"
video, web users no longer need to download a file and wait minutes before
even a short video clip is ready to be viewed. According to Cohen, VDOLive
is based on technology from VDONet which enables virtually anyone on the
web to view real-time video -- a feat not possible before the company's
technology was developed. Today VDOLive is being used by hundreds of companies
and web sites, including CBS News and PBS.
