TellyTopia brings over 50,000 High Resolution Internet Videos to Cable TV

(I-Newswire) July 20, 2009 - SANTA CLARA, CA – July 9, 2009 – Television viewers now have access to over 50,000 Internet videos produced in high resolution and quality – on the i2TV (Internet-to-TV) channel powered by TellyTopia's technology. The unique i2TV service, bringing Internet videos – popular videos and community videos – is now available to television viewers through Cable TV and IPTV service providers in several parts of the country. Over 10,000 video producers are becoming Television stars using i2TV today!

With the i2TV service, video producers upload their best content in high resolution at www.i2TV.tv – and the best content is filtered and delivered into Cable TV or IPTV – available online, on VoD (Video-on-Demand) or as a 24x7 TV channel. TellyTopia's partnership with Tubemogul, since December 2008, lets web producers submit their videos to not just Internet sites but also the Television in just one step, and monitor the viewership of the videos online or on TV using Tubemogul's upload and Web analytics.

TellyTopia is the world's first company to enable and launch this type of truly interactive channel to Cable TV and IPTV without the need for a new set-top-box. Content producers are excited about being shown on the most popular medium, the Television. They are able to upload higher resolution material, including High Definition, so that their content shows at its best. Moreover, they get paid for their content as a share of Television advertising revenue.

"Crossing the 50,000 high resolution, high quality video threshold, TellyTopia reaffirms i2TV's position as the leading Internet-to-Television service" said Kshitij Kumar, TellyTopia's Founder and CEO. "Videos range from vignettes with national interest, to sports shows created by videophiles in schools and communities across the United States. Now, anybody can be a TV star! Videos are uploaded using Tubemogul's one-stop-shop for video distribution, or directly on TellyTopia's content partner portal."

"TellyTopia has the technology and system that enables for Television what major online video sites have done for the Internet – empower the consumer to create and popularize high quality videos" said Brett Wilson – Founder and CEO at Tubemogul. "Tubemogul's easy-to-use system has been immensely successful in allowing content producers to upload videos once and distribute to all the major online video sites, and it was the natural progression for i2TV to be added by Tubemogul to collect content for Television as well – giving our customers the ability to become a TV star!"

"Having 10,000 video producers sign up and regularly upload videos demonstrates the scalability of the platform and the powerful, easy-to-use, SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) model software by TellyTopia. The seamless integration with Tubemogul's upload and metrics API is a testament to the ease of use of the software platform developed by TellyTopia", said Dr. Ram Srinivasan, Vice President and Co-Founder at TellyTopia. What's more, the i2TV service is a hassle-free one for Cable and IPTV providers, since all the content is checked for copyright, and inappropriateness for television. ", Dr. Srinivasan enthused, "CableTV providers can rest easy as they deploy i2TV across the country – i2TV is working to keep their TV systems safe from unwanted UGC content!".
