Lahaina, HI. Â In a recent study among five (5) streaming video technologiescurrently available, VX30 was voted #1, outperforming Flash, Microsoft Media, RealPlayer and Quicktime. VX30 is a player-less, Java-based, cross-platform softwareapplication that takes digital files and converts them into a format ready to bestreamed from any standard HTTP web server. Different from their competitors, VX30requires no downloading, installing or upgrading of different media players orplug-ins on an individualÂ's computer, which can be costly, complicated, timeconsuming and frustrating. VX30 videos can be viewed from any Java-enabled webbrowser running on any host including Solaris, Linux, OS X, and Windowsworkstations.
Dr. Edgar Huang, lead author of the August 2006 study states,  Our study shows thatVX30 has the best potential to become an ideal technology for video streaming it isthe number one streaming technology. *
 VX30Â's unsigned Java applet requires no intervention from the user to instantlyload and has the highest security restrictions of any applet, states JonathanMiller General Manger of VX30.  This ease-of-use, coupled with high securityrestrictions also helps in eliminating headaches caused by what has now become aprime target for viruses -- media playersÂ
Some of the key features of VX30 include: Easy to Use, Player-Less Viewing - Player-like capability, with no mediaplayer to download or maintain on a userÂ's computer. This eliminates the headache ofconstantly installing, upgrading, or adding plug-in software to usersÂ' computers. Scalability/Server Technology -VX30 does not require specialized serverconfigurations or software to operate which helps save money, time and effort. VX30video files reside on-demand on the server and are linked to web pages just like a.JPEG or .GIF file. Easy-To-Encode - The VX30 encoder has an intuitive user interface. Even anovice can quickly create the files necessary to stream video from a website. Bandwidth Detection - The VX30 Java player applet has built in bandwidthdetection algorithms that automatically choose the best quality video stream for aclientÂ's network capability Secure SSL Video Streaming - Video streams can be sent over SSL (SecureSocket Layer) for highly secure transmission. Digital Rights Management  VX30 video files are enveloped in a secureformat and can only be opened by a key created with the web siteÂ's qualified domainname (from which video file is being streamed). Video Magnification  VX30 videos can easily be toggled from in-line towindowed mode by clicking on the bottom right-hand corner of any video or byright-clicking the video applet and choosing  zoom. AJAX Customization  The VX30 Video Applet allows users to set-upJavaScript Events and to control playback of the video. JavaScript Events can betimed, stopped, paused and be used for tracking functions, playing videos insuccession or enabling graphical effects. Patented Technology  VX30 holds the patent to  Player-Less streaming. For additional information on this patent, please visit the USPTO and do a search onUS Patent #6,938,047.
Some examples of VX30 companies using the streaming media technology are YellowstoneNational Park, who chose it to power their award-winning web sitewww.yellowstonepark.com. Also, MauiÂ's Visitor Channel 7 www.mauionline.com, chose itknowing media player compatibility would not be an issue for viewers when watchingtheir live Internet broadcast.
About VX30With headquarters in Lahaina, Maui, Hawaii, VX30 has been integral in advancing theworld of player-less streaming media. As a new Sun Microsystems Partner, VX30Â'sJava-based platform looks to be a universal leader in the streaming media softwarecommunity.
