In addition to its existing industry leading features, the next generation of TVUPack offers a number of new enhancements:
- The latest generation of TVUPack offers enhanced performance at low-latency settings, enabling broadcasters to significantly reduce delay while conducting live interviews. TVUPack also delivers improved resilience with the system's new bitrate auto-set functionality, which briefly samples available bandwidth for each transmitter and automatically adjusts the bit-rate to match the ideal setting for the available bandwidth.
- Since its initial release TVUPack has offered integration with satellite systems, enabling users to leverage the available bandwidth from satellite connections in addition to cellular data. The latest release of TVUPack delivers further optimizations for Ka-band, Ku-band and BGAN satellite connections, giving field crews the ability to seamlessly utilize bandwidth from satellite sources in addition to cellular networks. As part of this integration, TVUPack offers auto configuration functionality, enabling field crews to transmit video over satellite links faster.
- TVUPack enables users to control the configuration for each data connection in the TVUPack transmitter directly from the receiver end at the production facility. This allows an experienced operator in the studio to configure the Pack for inexperienced or busy users in the field.
- With this advanced feature, the TVUPack receiver can collect GPS location data from each TVUPack transmitter in the field, providing the GPS location to each connected TVUPack. This functionality enables broadcasters to launch Google maps and provide the current location for each TVUPack in the field, enabling the studio to quickly locate a transmitter in case of a breaking news story and dispatch the video crew to cover the story.
- TVUPack can now work in conjunction with TVU Grid to deliver a live video return feed from the Grid Transceiver in the production facility to the TVUPack in the field. The feed can be accessed by any WiFi connected device with an Internet browser through TVUPack's HotSpot, giving field crews the ability to remain fully-engaged with the studio or monitor other events while delivering live shots from on location.
