TVU Extends Broadcaster Support For COVID-19 Coverage

On Friday, IP video solutions provider TVU Networks made the following announcement:

“With COVID-19 spreading quickly and widely across the U.S., we understand as a news organization you have a duty to keep the public informed as to the severity of the outbreak and efforts by local officials to contain the virus.

“As we have done in the past to help support broadcasters during crisis events, we are making the TVU Anywhere app available for any broadcaster that needs a professional live video broadcast tool. The app transmits broadcast quality live video from anywhere, is easy-to-use and seamlessly integrates with existing TV news operations.

“You may be interested in knowing that in regions of the world highly impacted by the coronavirus, such as in parts of China, local broadcast stations have found it impossible to physically report from quarantined areas due to travel restrictions. In response, the stations have had to rely on a creative use of technology to safely capture and share broadcast quality live video of interviews with patients, medical staff and the general public using TVU solutions.

“We want to assure you that TVU is ready to assist all broadcasters in reporting on this pandemic. TVU support is available 24/7, and we stand ready to help with any needs you may have.

“To get started or if you need any technical support, please don’t hesitate to contact us by phone (650-440-4812), Skype (skype.tvupack) or email.”
