German based audio network specialist DirectOut and the Italian IT system-provider Vivivaldy will use SRT for their joint remote production technology ‘ViViD’. The Joint-Venture today announced it has joined the SRT Alliance, the open-source initiative dedicated to overcoming the challenges of low-latency AV streaming. As part of the ViViD strategy to provide easy and reliable remote production solutions, the SRT technology has become an important part inside the concept of this service.

Luca Di Chio, CEO of Vivivaldy has thus commented: “Vivivaldy is proud to join the SRT Alliance to implement the open-source AV transport protocol in our VPN-routers. We think it’s a way to bring additional value to our clients. As the three Pillars of ViViD are simplicity, low latency and reliability, SRT helps us to guarantee a steady, glitchless audio transmission to open new scenarios and possibilities to live and broadcast streaming events via public Internet infrastructures.”   

Jan Ehrlich, CEO of DirectOut adds: “Reliability has always been an important principle for DirectOut. Our hardware is built to be solid and to grant high quality and the same concept stands for our AoIP implementations. The SRT Alliance follows the same approach of secure and reliable network transmission for maximum quality, so joining the Alliance perfectly matches with our company goals.”
