Nuvyyo Announces JetStreamHD(TM) Media Streamer based on ViXS(R) XCode(TM) Network Processor

XCode Engine Delivers Exceptional Video Quality for Tablet Devices

TORONTO, Nov. 8, 2011 /PRNewswire/ - ViXS Systems Inc., a leading provider of
smart network multimedia processors that enable a rich video
entertainment experience, today announced that Nuvyyo has chosen the
ViXS XCode 4115 for its innovative JetStreamHD product. JetStreamHD is
a powerful media processing platform that automatically transcodes
media content to iPad and other tablets.

Built on the media processing capabilities of ViXS XCode(TM) engine,
JetStreamHD transcodes and streams video, music and photos to the
iPad.  Consumers can enjoy instant access to all their media on their
iPad over any WiFi or 3G connection in their home or anywhere in the
world. Adaptive bit-rate streaming hardware ensures a vivid,
stutter-free video as JetStreamHD adapts to the dynamic wireless
bandwidth provided by the Wi-Fi or 3G connections. The iPad application
makes finding and viewing media flow seamlessly.   It organizes TV
shows, movies and user generated content, retrieves cover art, plot
summaries and includes powerful search, sorting and filtering options.

The XCode 4115 System on a Chip (SoC) used in the JetStreamHD manages
the conversion between media formats in real-time at high definition
(HD) output video quality.   XCode4115 SOC enables multi-format,
multi-stream HD or lower resolution video transcoding. Also integrated
with and running on the XCode4115 is the Apple content streaming
protocol software called HTTP-Live server or HLS to support Apple iPad
devices.

"We are pleased to be working with ViXS on this revolutionary product
that allows consumers to instantly enjoy every video, photo and songs
they own instantly on their iPad wherever they are" said Grant Hall,
CEO of Nuvyyo. "The XCode SOC has enabled us to design a very
innovative product with excellent video quality, high level of
concurrency and support for multiple codecs".

"Unique network media-processing solutions from ViXS provide clear
differentiation for the CE devices", said Sally Daub, President and CEO
of ViXS Systems. "Consumer digital media content consumption is
evolving to include new devices and applications, and we are pleased to
be the network media processor of choice in the JetStreamHD Media
Streamer product. Our solutions enable products with best in class
media processing performance combined with the highest image quality on
the market today".
