SPLASH MEDIA LAUNCHES ENHANCED WEB-BASED VIDEO PLATFORM FOR ONLINE TRAINING AND COMMUNICATIONS NETWORKS
New User-Friendly Platform Offers Customers Greater Accessibility to Online Content Dallas – Sept. 26, 2007 – Splash Media LP, a leading developer of customized IPTV training and communications networks, announced today the launch of Splash Stream™ 8.0 to allow enhanced user visibility of its Web-based video content. Splash Stream™ is a proprietary Web-based platform, developed by Splash Media, that allows an individual to view HTTP streamed programming seamlessly and directly through his/her personal computer.
The new Web-based Splash Media platform offers users greater flexibility and additional features, including higher quality of video without increased bandwidth, easier and faster navigation of a large content library, and a search function to aid in finding a specific video.
“Based on customer feedback, we have created a more scalable, universal and user-friendly delivery platform for our online networks,” says Chris Kraft, president of Splash Media. “Splash Stream 8.0 creates efficiencies in network building and virtually eliminates the concerns of IT departments and blocked Internet ports. This technology broadens Splash Media’s scope and allows additional customers – company executives and employees – to access communications and training content online.”
Effective Oct. 1, 2007, Splash Media will permanently retire the Splash Stream 6.0 player and will automatically upgrade all customers’ platforms to Splash Stream 8.0. Customer installation will not be necessary for the upgrade, and the new version of the player is compatible with Windows and Macintosh OS X.
Prospective customers only need a Web browser with the Adobe Flash plug-in to access Splash Media content online.
