NeuLion iPTV Platform Delivers Multimedia Content Directly to the TV

LAS VEGAS, April 24 /PRNewswire/ -- The NeuLion iPTV Platform is the center of attention this week at NAB 2006 (Booth SL2407D). NeuLion is expanding the possibilities of IPTV, going beyond the desktop media player; straight from the internet to the TV.

An end-to-end solution, the NeuLion iPTV Platform uses the public internet to stream multimedia content to any TV or PC, from a common library. The result is DVD-quality streaming video -- in real-time -- to any device.

"IPTV is the hottest technology right now, and is poised to transform the way that people choose, access and enjoy multimedia entertainment," said Chris Wagner, EVP and Co-Founder of NeuLion. "The NeuLion iPTV Platform is the best choice for content owners to more effectively reach an audience that potentially spans the globe."

Without the geographical limitations of Telco networks the NeuLion iPTV Platform can reach around the world, connecting niche audiences and creating communities around a common interest. The NeuLion set-top-box is able to support interactive features such as internet telephone connections, gaming and other options.

NeuLion iPTV Content Partners supply media and identify the marketplace. The NeuLion iPTV Platform encodes, delivers, stores and manages an unlimited amount of multimedia content, and the Operational Support System (OSS) maintains all billing and customer support services.

The first NeuLion iPTV-based service to hit the marketplace is KyLinTV, an IPTV subscription service for Chinese-Americans. Launched in September 2005, that service now streams live to thousands of subscribers from Honolulu to New York. KyLinTV offers more than 20,000 hours of broadcast and VOD content choices with 300 hours added or updated each week.
