and information and tie-ins to a dedicated interactive Web
site.
- Reality/Nature -
WILDLIFE JOURNAL, showcasing the role of game wardens in
their real-life adventures as protectors of natural
resources, enforcers of public safety laws, and response
to emergencies like wild animal control, toxic spills and
natural disasters.
Already a success in U.S. syndication, CABLEready is offering 48 half-hours available immediately.
Crafts/Collectibles - COUNTRY SAMPLER: ON THE ROAD, bringing the appeal of crafts/collectibles shows to television.

television,

PR-15 / NATPE - January
22 - 25, 2001
"Disappointment Diaries", "To Kill With a Song" and
Troy Cory's China Harbin "Live" Webcast,
Offered To NATPE TV ProgrammersIn Addition to "Disappointment Diaries" and "To Kill With a Song", VRA has inked with web telecaster, LookRadio, for two new 1-hour special episodes of the Troy Cory's China Harbin "Live" Webcast, co-produced in China by China TV, House of Blues, Media 100, Terran, QDesign, TVI Magazine, China Expo 2000, Eine Traum Produktion, and Firewire Media. The Show was video taped in August, 2000, in Harbin, China.
Lookradio will continue its own "To Catch A Song" format franchise, with 24 segments to be produced for next year, and VRA has agreed to distribute the "V-Music" programming format.
"Disappointment Diaries, and the Kill With a Song format programs, ("D-Diary" and "C-Song"), -- could become valuable weapons, for both the independent TV broadcaster, and the new breed TV webcaster, who wish to go international", said Bernie Schwartz, President and CEO of VRA TelePlay Previews, the program distribution and development company based in Universal City, California.
- "Proven to drive audience and demo numbers up on the
web, D-Diary and
"live" C-Song
formatted shows, embrace all of the essentials necessary
to make entertaining television. The format includes
great music, timely topics, interesting characters,
killings, war, history and is told in a "Tongue in
Cheek"- "Whodunit?" fashion."
Whether in the form of a reality or a forensic program, LookRadio's own D Diaries is available on the web daily by -- Video On Demand, (VoD) -- and To Kill With A Song. The D-Diary format is creating high rating hits on the web, "because the shows are broken down to 3 to 6 minute segments -- which enables the broadcaster to play any segment they wish -- at any time of the day - to fill in idletime.", said Bernie.
There's no reason D-Diaries, which are available on the web "live", utilizing its S90tv system, or: by streaming the (VoD) content, To Kill With A Song, in the D-Diary format, could not create big ratings for indie TV stations, "because the shows are broken down to 3 to 6 minute segments -- which are short, sweet and entertaining", said Bernie Schwartz.
The valuable weapons Disappointment Diaries, and To Kill With a Song' offer, include Mel Carter, Dennis Weaver, Joey Adams, Sam Butera, Pete Allman, James Brown, Troy Cory and the real historical footage of Ronald Reagan, Mao Zedong, Jiang Qing (Moa's wife), Deng Xiaoping, Jiang Zemin, and Zhu Rongi. The series, in part, were co-produced by Shanghai TV, CCTV, Beijing, Bohemia Film, Markiza TV and Bratislavia Produktion. -------------------

- complete solution from 3D content creation to 3D home viewing, and can be
- used to broadcast a variety of events from sporting occasions to musical
- concerts - all in 3D - to the home through broadband and low band Internet,
- analog cable, digital cable, satellite and wireless DTV. A a major advance

- look PR-04 0214 QDesign to Provide Advanced Scalable Audio Technology to InterTrust and
- MetaTrust-Certified Audio Applications
- InterTrust and QDesign to combine DRM and audio technology for a secure,
- scalable music solution that supports rights-managed content for download
- and streaming
- February 14, 2000, Santa Clara, CA and Vancouver, BC - InterTrust
- Technologies Corporation (NASDAQ: ITRU), the MetaTrust Utility(tm), and
- QDesign Corporation, a leading provider of digital audio compression
- technologies, today announced a technology partnership for the use of
- QDesign's audio codec technology in MetaTrust-Certified(tm) audio
- applications. The partnership is aimed at developing a DRM-enabled, scalable
- audio format for digital streaming applications. Further, QDesign and
- InterTrust will work together to integrate DRM technology into the Windows
- version of the recently released MVP audio/video player, a cross-platform
- (for MacOS and Windows) software application for recording and playback of
- digital music and videos.
- Adding the QDesign high quality, scalable audio codec to the growing list of
- DRM-enabled audio formats (MP3, AAC, and others) will result in more digital
- music commerce options. Music player companies will have more DRM-enabled
- development options. Content owners will have extensive control over how
- their music content is promoted, licensed, and sold without the need to
- re-purpose content each time new distribution and business models are
- introduced. Consumers will have greater choice in DRM-enabled music players
- as InterTrust and QDesign work to integrate DRM into the audio capabilities
- of the MVP player, with the goal of becoming another MetaTrust-Certified(tm)
- audio player.
- The QDesign audio codec technology is optimized to produce high quality
- audio at data rates as low as 1.0 KB per second. The combination of
- scalability and quality of the QDesign audio technology allows a singled
- encoded source file to serve a broad range of music products and services,
- from music download to personalized streaming Internet radio. The
- "on-the-fly" scalability allows QDesign encoded audio to automatically fit
- to available storage (i.e., up to 5 times more audio than standard MP3 files
- on portable music players) as well as dynamically adapt to available
- bandwidth for Internet streaming.
- "InterTrust provides the most comprehensive DRM technology for all digital
- content types," said Richard J. Beaton, president, QDesign Corporation. "By
- integrating InterTrust DRM with the scalability of the QDesign audio
- technology, we are providing content owners with the most robust system for
- creating, promoting, and delivering digital music around e-commerce."
- "InterTrust seeks to provide the broadest selection of codec technology
- support for audio and video possible," said Talal Shamoon, vice president of
- technology initiatives, InterTrust Technologies Corporation. "The QDesign
- audio codec technology offers a level of scalability and extensibility in
- quality and control that complements InterTrust's DRM platform well. The
- combination of the two technologies presents content holders and consumers
- an unprecedented array of options for new music products and services, using
- existing and emerging delivery mechanisms."
- QDesign Corporation
- >From the release of the world's first MP2 audio compression software in 1996
- to the introduction of its own MP3 and QDesign Music technologies, QDesign
- has established itself as the leading provider of the most advanced audio
- compression solutions in the broadcast, new media and Internet delivery
- markets. Since the inclusion of the QDesign Music Codec in Apple QuickTime 3
- as the audio compression solution for Internet streaming, multimedia
- authoring and digital music, QDesign has received numerous industry
- accolades for delivering the best web audio technology. Last Fall, the
- company introduced digital music to the masses with "MVP", the first
- software application for creating and managing the most complete range of
- music and video formats on both Mac OS and Windows platforms. Today,
- QDesign's audio technologies appear in hardware processors, digital audio
- production, automation and distribution systems as well as consumer
- multimedia software.
