The Viz Reporter solution provides the customer with a
fully integrated solution, from video recording on the mobile phone, playback on the back-end server, and design of an optimal process to monetizing this content and using it in news production.
Users can browse the mobile phone’s file system for multimedia content; editing tools enable them to trim videos recorded with the camera; stories can be created, geo-tagged and descriptive metadata can be added to the media. Afterwards the content can be uploaded in full quality via the mobile net or a WiFi network.
Once content is available on the
Viz Media Engine, it can be prepared for online publishing, be archived for future purposes, or be exported to other workflows.
The Viz Reporter client application is supported on a wide range of Java enabled mobile phones as well as Blackberries. The latest release also runs on Apple's iPhone and iPad.
Live Streaming from your mobile
With
Viz Reporter you can stream high quality live video directly from your mobile
phone into a central workflow for live usage, post processing, or for instant
publishing directly online.
The
mobile phone application actively uses the phone’s camera to capture live
content, stream the live video to the Viz Media Engine. Once the connection
between the Viz Reporter client and Viz Media Engine is established, the
content can with minimum delay be available in your workflow, transcoded and
published for online streaming or forwarded directly to other workflows. These
processes may be rule-based or manually operated, depending on the setup on the
Viz Media Engine.
Typical usage of the Live Reporter is for low-equipped News Reporters that needs a tool for covering breaking news, or for the average Joe that wants a tool for sending live video to his friends in a social network, such as Facebook.
Live Reporter is supported on Symbian Series 60 phones, such as Nokia N95, Nokia N82, Nokia N85 and newer phones like Nokia N97 etc.
