Allowing developers to create video applications for fixed and mobile phones

Parsippany, NJ - October 13, 2009 - Dialogic Corporation ("Dialogic"), a global provider of world-class products and technologies for multimedia and signal processing, today announced the beta availability of the DiaStar^TM Server, version 1.1. This release brings a variety of existing video features from the Dialogic® product portfolio to the Open Source/Asterisk® marketplace. The new video features of the Diastar Server include:

 

• Multimedia processing with advanced video transcoding (MPEG-4 and H.263) - Enables the development of advanced video gateways and  media servers
• Video conferencing - Displays a video conference to multiple callers
• Video resize - Adapts high-quality content to display on smaller-sized video-enabled phones
• Video play/record - Allows for the storage and forwarding of video content for IVVR, video portals and many other video applications
• Video DVR controls - Lets users navigate through video content with familiar controls that make using an application simple and intuitive
• Native streaming and native play/record - Reduces the transcoding burden, which results in increased density per server

These new features further allow developers to create applications for fixed and mobile phones, such as IVVR systems, Video Surveillance Systems, Video Gateways, Mobile Advertising and Banking, Multimedia Social Networking and basic Video Call Completion. These features add to the Call Progress Analysis modules that were already available on the Diastar Server, and help bolster its scalability, reliability and redundancy.

"We are really excited to bring this complex feature set to the developers in this market and to enable them to utilize these features directly from the Dialplan," said Steve Gladstone, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Media Enabling Product Group for Dialogic. "By making these functions easy to use, we hope to unleash a lot of creativity around video applications in this market."
