TVU Networks, the global technology and innovation leader in live IP video solutions and remote production solutions, today announced its collaboration with PRG Germany, a leading international provider of innovative event production services.

PRG needed technological assistance to live stream remotely an e-Sports competition on Twitch. The event called the “mash-up” divided 100 players into 25 teams of 4 players. There were 25 players who joined the competition directly from the PRG production studio (Cinegate Cologne) in Germany. The rest of the participants played from their home countries, and PRG used TVU Anywhere and TVU streaming technology to stream their live participation.

PRG wanted to ensure that when filming so many participants in different locations, they could keep the latency as low as 0.5sec at all times. This was key to build and maintain real-time emotional connections between players, the teams, and the Twitch viewers. The final results were live-streamed on Amar’s channel on Twitch, with peak viewership reaching thousands of viewers

“In Sports, the live streaming quality is always critical, and having soccer professionals accessing the team competition remotely from the venue made it a real challenge” says Jörn Kubiak, CEO at PRG Germany. “We had to integrate their live feeds with the other athletes on site, and stream it to Twitch while keeping latency to a minimum”

TVU Networks swiftly presented a solution, TVU Anywhere, empowering PRG to remotely control live streams from the studio in Germany. TVU Anywhere is a smartphone app that aggregates cellular data, with H.265 encoding capabilities and patented IS+ transmission algorithm. Very easy to use, it allows anyone to transmit high-quality live video footage to broadcasters and TV studios, securing high and constant bandwidth even with a standard home internet connection.

“We were thrilled PRG chose TVU Networks to achieve such low latency and host a truly memorable eSport tournament for players and viewers worldwide” says David Jorba, EVP and Europe Managing Director at TVU Networks. “It’s our mission to increase the quality of live video while stripping out complexity and reducing cost for our broadcasts, digital media and live event production partners.”
