JAVA 3GPP/MP4 PLAYER

With the rollout of 2.5G Video MMS and 3G services worldwide, mobile service operators face the challenge of introducing new value-added services while providing seamless transition for existing customers who may not have 3GPP handsets.

Video MMS, with its wonderful interactive value and increased bandwidth utilization, has the potential to significantly enhance the revenue streams of mobile providers. However, for rapid adoption of video MMS, service providers must ensure that video MMS messages can still reach non-3GPP users.

XinLab’s mobile solutions can ensure trouble-free deployment of video MMS solutions.

XinLab's 3GPP Video Applet  See a demo



Xinlab's CODEC and multimedia expertise allow users to create a small footprint, highly-optimized low-overhead decoder. The applet decodes 320x240 3GPP-compliant video streams in real-time, even on low-end desktop PCs.

Xinlab’s 3GPP Video Applet improves interoperability between 3GP-enabled handheld devices and other legacy handhelds and PC desktops, enabling users without 3GPP phones to view 3GPP video content. This functionality is available via a standard Internet browser, with no need to download or configure additional software packages.

Our 3GPP Video Applet is a standards-based solution that allows any device loaded with JVM (Java Virtual Machine) version 1.0 and higher to successfully decode 3GPP, ISMA and MPEG-4 streams. The Applet provides unified support for H.263, MPEG-4, and AMR-NB (Adaptive Multi-Rate-Narrow Band) today, and is architected to allow rapid incorporation of new standards such as H.264.

XinLab’s 3GPP solutions are in use today by numerous European mobile operators, who have picked our 3GPP solutions over other software playback solutions because of its seamless integration into their existing environment.

Applications
* Solves legacy support problem for mobile service operators (for messages sent to non-video capable handsets).
* Provides media storage and playback solutions on the Internet.
* Integrates with other media library offerings to provide a seamless and complete mobile media solution.


Features and Benefits
For mobile service operators:
* Rapid deployment: Applet-based solution makes it easy to integrate and quick to deploy.
* Cost reduction: Reduces incidence of expensive support calls to handle installation and other compatibility issue questions from customers.
* Seamless integration: Java-based applet solution allows tight integration with other MMS media such as static pictures and animation.
* Consistent branding: Provides for branding with logos and potential ad insertion by operators.
* Content protection: Customizable applet solution provides operators with options for content protection and additional enhancements through integration into existing DRM infrastructure.


For end users:
* Graceful fall-back: If Java is not present or disabled, user will still be provided with options to download the stream, providing the best user experience.
* Easy to use: Compact applet-based solution means users do not have to download extra plug-ins or install standalone playback clients
* Excellent compatibility: Has demonstrated the greatest compatibility with numerous handsets, able to play streams from newer handsets that other popular standalone players cannot play.
* Transparent upgrades: Allows invisible updates to the CODEC engine, without requiring end-users to download upgrades or new CODECs.
