goliveTV offers an
easy and efficient means to move user generated content on-air.
Pre-programmed content and live video callers, which have called
into the show via 3G mobile phone or Internet webcam, can be
easily added into a live broadcast. goliveTV also offers the
ability to make outbound video calls to viewers, including these
callers in the broadcast.
goliveTV provides
innovative capabilities for interacting, moderating and managing live video
callers. The system provides broadcast production with full
control and monitoring capability over all callers to the
system. While waiting to be interviewed by the production staff
or entering a broadcast, callers can be placed in unique video
waiting rooms, where they can view video content of various
sorts, partake in quizzes, or even record their own video
content. |
