TVU Remote Commentator Platform Enables Live, Remote Sports Commentary Over IP for Mediacorp at the 31st Southeast Asian Games
SHANGHAI, May 26, 2022 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --

-First TVU Remote Commentator Deployment in Asia Pacific Region at Live Matches 
of SEA Games 2022

TVU Networks (https://www.tvunetworks.com/), the market and technology leader 
in cloud and IP-based live video solutions, announced the first high-profile 
deployment of its TVU Remote Commentator cloud-based remote commentary platform 
in the Asia Pacific region. As the official sponsor of the 31st Southeast Asian 
Games and the technical partner of Mediacorp (https://www.mediacorp.sg/),  
Singapore's largest national media group, TVU provided the solution,TVU Remote 
Commentator, to  enable live, remote commentary with announcers in different 
countries, synchronized to furnish a natural, conversational affect.

At the SEA Games, the TVU Remote Commentator 
(https://www.tvunetworks.com/products/tvu-remote-commentator/) proved the ideal 
cloud platform for collaboration of multiple commentators in multiple remote 
locations on a single production.

For the Philippines vs. Timor-Leste men's football match, for instance, 
Mediacorp created a live conversation between commentators at the IBC in Hanoi 
and at Mediacorp TV headquarters in Singapore. Using TVU Remote Commentator, 
each announcer was able to see the live game video, hear each other's 
commentary, and hear audio from the stadium - all live and in sync. The result 
was a discussion that was as easy and natural as if they'd been together at the 
event.

Commentators conducted remote commentator from Sydney using TVU Remote 
Commentator for several events, including the Women's Synchro 10m Platform 
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JJGq548LxxU ) and Men's Tanding 
(https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLAgac0v9fY ).

"This is our first time using TVU Remote Commentator," said JunJie Lee, 
Technical Head for SEA Games of Mediacorp. "It's quite stable and user 
friendly. We foresee using it again soon."

TVU TimeLock( 
https://www.tvunetworks.com/products/tvu-timelock/tvu-timelock-buy-rent/ )auto 
sync technology ensured that the audio and video of all commentators were 
synced with the main video feed, regardless of network latency or distance from 
the event. TVU Timelock provides wireless, untethered remote production.

TVU's web-based audio mixer allowed audio operators to manage all commentator 
feeds with level control, recording, mute/unmute, and audio channel mapping for 
outputs. Localized commentary feeds could be routed to separate audio channels, 
or separate outputs could be created for each channel. Beyond live productions, 
TVU Remote Commentator can also be used to upload files for recorded voice 
overs.

Games 2022 in Hanoi, Vietnam

"TVU's deployment of IP media infrastructure at the Southeast Asia Games proves 
that cloud-based workflows are the new standard for large-scale, global live 
events, " said Liming Fu, VP for APAC Sales of TVU Networks. "The TVU ecosystem 
provides the high quality of traditional broadcast, with the flexibility of 
infrastructure-free, cloud-based broadcasting over the public internet. Our 
easy-to-deploy, SaaS modular solutions like TVU Remote Commentator create 
additional enhancements, delivering not just broadcast-quality audio but also 
language-independent channels for localized coverage - even when the event and 
commentators are in different places of the world."
