We are a well known MPEG compression and networking company created within AT&T Bell Labs. As for Trinity's comment on interactivity, I don't believe that is the goal here. It's all about satellite transponder efficiency and MPEG4 does provide comparable picture quality at half the bandwidth of MPEG2. Hi Sachin,

I can’t mention my company name yet as we’re in discussions with DIRECTV for a press release. We are a well known MPEG compression and networking company created within AT&T Bell Labs.

As for Trinity’s comment on interactivity, I don’t believe that is the goal here. It’s all about satellite transponder efficiency and MPEG4 does provide comparable picture quality at half the bandwidth of MPEG2.

My company is providing the ASI networking platform DIRECTV will be using for HD content backhaul. DIRECTV is building a world class content aquisition and backhaul network for their HD service launch and we're proud to be an important component (I do not work for Tandberg!)
