Envivio Muse Offers Native Support for New iPad and Apple TV; Encoding Leader Envivio to Demonstrate MPEG-DASH at Upcoming Events

South San Francisco (PRWEB) March 12, 2012

Envivio Muse transcoding software, available on the Envivio 4Caster appliance or HP blade servers for IT datacenter implementations, supports native 1080p HD resolution for the recently introduced Apple iPad and Apple TV. Two channels in full 1080p and up to six sub-resolutions in Apple HTTP Live Streaming (HLS) can be delivered from a single appliance or blade.

As a result, viewers can enjoy a superior viewing experience on the iPads new ultra-high quality Retina display and pristine HDTV using their Apple TV system. Service providers and content providers with existing Envivio systems can easily upgrade their headends to support the new formats with a simple license upgrade, thanks to Envivios software-based architecture.

Envivio has been at the forefront of developing products geared for multi-screen video delivery for more than a decade, said Julien Signs, Envivios president and CEO. We were the first to offer an encoder that supported Apple HTTP Live Streaming, and continue to enable our service provider customers to provide high quality video to the latest devices and integrate new technologies such as MPEG-DASH.

Envivio is a member of the MPEG Standards Committee and MPEG-DASH Promoters Group, and will be presenting a technology demonstration of high quality MPEG-DASH adaptive bitrate technology at two industry events this month. Envivio is participating in the CableLabs Winter Conference, a showcase of advanced technologies for cable operators taking place in Philadelphia on March 12-13, as well as at the IP&TV World Forum in London, March 20-22. In these demonstrations, live video is encoded in an Envivio Genesis multi-bitrate transport stream using Envivio Muse, and packaged in MPEG-DASH format by the Envivio Halo network media processor. An Android tablet with an MPEG-DASH decoder client receives the adaptive bitrate streams, then decodes and displays the video.

Envivio now serves more than 310 customers in more than 50 countries.

PARIS (AP) The Arab Spring is changing the face of Internet freedom, according to Reporters Without Borders, which released its latest "Enemies of the Internet" list Monday.

The annual report classifies as "enemies" countries that severely curtail freedom of expression on and access to the Web. It also draws up a list of states "under surveillance."

The group added Bahrain to its enemies list, citing a news blackout and harassment of bloggers in an attempt to quell a yearlong Shiite-led rebellion against the Sunni monarchy.

The country had previously been under surveillance.

"Bahrain offers a perfect example of successful crackdowns, with an information blackout achieved through an impressive arsenal of repressive measures: exclusion of the foreign media, harassment of human rights defenders, arrests of bloggers and netizens (one of whom died behind bars), prosecutions and defamation campaigns against free expression activists, disruption of communications," the Paris-based group's report said.

But the Arab Spring the name given to a cascade of revolts across the Arab world has also led to the opening up of some regimes.

Libya, where the repressive rule of Moammar Gadhafi was thrown off in a violent revolt, was removed from the list of countries under surveillance.

"In Libya, many challenges remain but the overthrow of the Gadhafi regime has ended an era of censorship," the report said.

The group said that the Arab Spring had also highlighted the importance of the Internet and therefore the importance of protecting access to and expression on it.

"The Internet and social networks have been conclusively established as tools for protest, campaigning and circulating information, and as vehicles for freedom," the group said. "More than ever before, online freedom of expression is now a major foreign and domestic policy issue."

ABSTRACT: OUR LOCAL CORRESPONDENTS about tax evasion and the residency requirements for New York City taxes. Tax rates on the rich have become a highly charged political issue. Mitt Romney, after resisting making his tax returns public, revealed that he paid 13.9 per cent of his 2010 adjusted gross income of $21.6 million in federal tax. Some of the wealthiest people in the country pay even less. The Internal Revenue Service discloses detailed statistics for the four hundred highest-earning taxpayers in the country. In 2008, the most recent year available, those taxpayers had an average adjusted gross income of two hundred and seventy million dollars each. Thirty of them paid less than ten per cent in federal taxes, and a hundred and one paid between ten and fifteen per cent. On average, the group paid 18.1 per cent. President Obama has seized on that fact, making tax fairness a central issue in his relection bid. The President has called for comprehensive tax reform and for specific proposals for a Buffett Rule, which would raise tax rates on taxpayers earning more than a million dollars a year. Romney has called for a twenty-per-cent across-the-board tax cut, while limiting some deductions. None of the proposals address the fact that rich people arent taxed on certain income, either because it is exempt, as with interest on municipal bonds, or because they claim to be living outside the jurisdiction that is levying the tax. Relatively scant media attention has been paid to residency requirements, even though enormous revenue is at stake. Tax audits and hearings are ordinarily confidential, but several published opinions and related appeals reveal how some New Yorkers take advantage of the residency requirement. (New York City tax laws dont apply to people who are deemed to be nonresidents, even if they own a residence in the city and work there. Nonresidents are allowed to spend no more than half a yeara hundred and eighty-three daysin New York City.) Many states have such requirements. Relatively few cities levy personal income taxes, but the largest ones that do, besides New York City, are Baltimore, Cleveland, Denver, Detroit, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Portland, San Francisco, and St. Louis. The problem is especially acute for cities like New York, which are geographically close to nearby lower-tax jurisdictions. People who want to avoid both New York State and New York City income taxes are permitted to own a residence and work in the city and the state but must maintain a primary residence outside the state. The residency loophole provides an obvious financial motive to lie. One prominent tax lawyer said that cheating is rampant. Discusses the residency-requirement cases of hedge-fund manager Julian Robertson, criminal-defense attorney Thomas Perry, and Martha Stewart.
