Worldnow Meets FCC Requirements for Internet Protocol-Delivered Video

NEW YORK, April 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Worldnow, the leading online technology, content, video and revenue-solutions company for local media, has announced that they are currently in compliance for IP delivered video. Their end-to-end technology is the only solution in the marketplace to integrate with television broadcasting systems for live streaming with closed captioning. In addition, for more than a decade Worldnow has led the industry in delivering accurate closed captioning information for our clients' video content.

The recent FCC enactment of the new closed captioning rules for Internet protocol-delivered video programming has already been in hand for Worldnow's patent-pending video technology and with the addition of live streaming closed captioning support they continually stay ahead on technology and regulatory issues so their clients can focus on local media strategies.

Worldnow's patent-pending, cutting edge video technology has increased audience engagement while generating significant revenue online for over 400 local media companies, and at the same time, increasing SEO awareness and ROI on our partners' efforts.

"Their video technology is ever-evolving and we look forward to the next decade of enhancements."
