Empowering Historic Moments: Indonesia's Presidential Inauguration
Indonesia marked a significant milestone on 20 October 2024, with the inauguration of its eighth president Prabowo Subianto. Broadcast to a global audience, this event underscored the nation’s growing influence on the world stage. Tasked with delivering seamless coverage of the event, Indonesian National Television turned to TVU Networks.
Leveraging its TVU One mobile transmitters, the team ensured robust signal acquisition and seamless transmission. This technology enabled live feeds to be routed through TVU receivers, professionally produced, and distributed globally across traditional media and digital platforms like YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter.
TVU’s IS+ transmission protocol, paired with HEVC encoding and Forward Error Correction (FEC), maintained impeccable video quality despite challenging network conditions, ensuring that viewers worldwide witnessed this momentous occasion without interruptions.
Breaking Boundaries: Delhi Half Marathon Broadcast
The 19th Vedanta Delhi Half Marathon presented a unique challenge for broadcasters—covering a sprawling 21-kilometre race across New Delhi’s urban landscape. Traditional wired transmission methods proved inadequate, but TVU Networks’ mobile broadcasting solution stepped in as the ideal alternative.
TVU One devices were strategically deployed, including two units at the starting line, three mounted on motorcycles following athletes, two capturing the finish line and awards ceremony, and two attached to drones for stunning aerial shots.
This innovative deployment utilised 5G/4G networks for real-time, high-quality audio and video feeds, offering viewers a dynamic and immersive experience. With features like compact design, IS+ multi-network aggregation, and smart HEVC encoding, TVU One ensured stable and uninterrupted coverage of this prestigious Gold Label event.
“The success of the Delhi Half Marathon broadcast demonstrates the robust capabilities of our professional solutions in delivering immersive viewing experiences to global audiences,” said South Asia, general manager, Subodh Aggarwal. “This event not only showcases our dedication to supporting marathon sports but also reinforces TVU’s leadership in broadcasting large-scale sporting events. We remain committed to innovating end-to-end production solutions for marathons and other events, ensuring that the passion and resilience inherent in sports reach audiences worldwide.”
Frontline journalism redefined: Reporting from the Middle East
In the midst of escalating tensions along the Lebanon-Israel border, ABP News showcased the power of technology and journalism by delivering real-time updates directly from the conflict zone. With the help of TVU One live backpacks, ABP News overcame significant challenges, including unstable connectivity and hazardous conditions.
The TVU One’s ISX high-performance multi-network protocol, combined with HEVC encoding and FEC, ensured crystal-clear footage despite bandwidth constraints. The compact and durable design of the device allowed journalists to maintain mobility and initiate live broadcasts instantly, even in hostile environments.
This collaboration between ABP News and TVU Networks demonstrated the transformative role of technology in frontline reporting, ensuring audiences received timely, accurate, and high-quality news coverage.
Dynamic productions: Fuji Television's sports broadcasts
In Japan, Fuji Television has long been a leader in sports broadcasting, covering major golf and football events. To enhance its dynamic wireless field camera production, Fuji Television integrated TVU Router solutions into its workflow in June 2024.
By aggregating multiple LTE networks, the TVU Router created a virtual LAN channel between field cameras and the OB station, enabling seamless remote control of camera settings. This setup allowed cameramen to focus on capturing the perfect shot while video engineers managed technical aspects like aperture and brightness from the OB station.
The P2P VLAN setup and IS+ multi-network aggregation provided reliable connectivity in challenging environments such as dense golf courses and crowded stadiums. This innovative solution balanced mobility, cost-effectiveness, and exceptional reliability.
From political milestones to athletic feats and frontline reporting, TVU Networks consistently demonstrates its ability to adapt and innovate.
