CEO Connie Wong says, "This announcement
represents a new era of mobile internet
video experience by bringing CNN video content
into the hands of Nokia's new series of
multimedia device owners. I am proud of
this partnership with industry leader like
Turner to stream CNN video content to mobile
phone users anytime and anywhere. This collaboration
once again validates Vidiator's position
as the industry leader specialising in streaming
of high-quality video and audio content
for mobile networks."

technology advantages Vidiator brings is
its ability to adapt to the mobile radio

by changing the bit and frame rate dynamically.

algorithm, while Xenon Live Encoder encodes
and streams any analog video signal including
