The two companies have completed development on a fully integrated mobile video solution that takes advantage of Mobixell's unique multimedia capabilities.


Seattle, Washington; Palo Alto, CA, - Volantis, the world's leading supplier of Intelligent Content AdaptationTM solutions for the Mobile Internet, and Mobixell Networks, a leading provider of innovative mobile multimedia solutions, today announced a partnership to deliver a broad variety of multimedia capabilities optimized for every media type, mobile device, and value added service (VAS).

The two companies have completed development on a fully integrated mobile video solution that takes advantage of Mobixell's unique multimedia capabilities (supported by its recent acquisition of Adamind), together with Volantis' market-leading content delivery platform.

Leveraging Mobixell's Content Production suite for mobile multimedia production and adaptation, Volantis extends and enhances its content management and delivery capability to include intelligent asset transcoding and real-time streaming adaptation of video and audio of any format. This ensures that the mobile subscriber experience is always optimized for any type of media, regardless of mobile devices, domains and networks.

The new partnership complements Volantis' existing solutions for wireless carriers and content providers. The Volantis Suite of Mobile Content ApplicationsTM and supporting Mobile Content FrameworkTM enable the development and distribution of a wide variety of mobile content, including wallpapers, ringtones, audio and video, streaming content, games, and interactive content such as quizzes, polls, and competitions.

Mobixell's Content Production Suite transforms mobile content production from a manual process into an efficient and reliable, high-volume automated process, providing carriers and content providers with tools to validate the Quality of Experience (QoE) for each and every mobile device. At the heart of this Production Suite is a smart, all-in-one, media adaptation engine that reduces the burden of creating device-specific versions of unique content. The Production Suite also offers a wealth of value-added features for content previewing, DRM, branding and advertising.

"We selected Mobixell after a year-long analysis that matched our growing customer requirements for dynamic video content with an exhaustive review of the competitive offerings in the marketplace," said Matthew Harris, Chief Executive Officer of Volantis. "We are confident that together with Mobixell, we can offer a solution today that is unrivaled in the marketplace."
