Motorola Brings Media Mobility to Life at IBC 2008

Video explosion drives demand for innovation in video encoding, content transcoding and media mobility from Motorola

Basingstoke, UK – 8 September 2008 - Motorola, Inc. (NYSE: MOT) will unveil its recent advances in delivering rich personal media experiences through live demonstrations at IBC 2008. The Motorola stand (D31, Hall 1) will offer visitors the opportunity to generate their own video content, and see it transformed and moved across various screens and devices.

“Video creation and consumption are booming. Consumers demand access to video on any device wherever they are as the boundaries between TV, PC and mobile blur,” said Joe Cozzolino, corporate vice president and general manager, Motorola Home & Networks Mobility EMEA. “The ‘always on’ culture is redefining traditional programming and consumers want personalized schedules to fit their lifestyles. As a global leader in digital set tops, and with a rich history in video encoding and delivery of content on the move, Motorola is dedicated to enabling revenue generation applications and services that offer a rich personal media experience. We’re excited to show this in action at IBC this year.”

Motorola’s Millennial Generation, the technology-savvy users (ages 16-27) who have grown up with the internet and mobile technology, will be inviting visitors to create their own High Definition (HD) video content. Visitors will witness Motorola’s powerful encoding process for themselves as the clips are encoded using the Motorola VODxchange and displayed across the Motorola stand. In addition, the MPEG4 HD clips will be spliced into live content by Motorola’s new CherryPicker CAP1000 application platform to demonstrate how operators can efficiently insert local ads in their networks
Being showcased for the first time in Europe, Motorola’s MCU3E transcoder is a small yet powerful device that plugs via USB into a set-top and transcodes the live or recorded video content into the right format, bit rate and screen size to be transferred to a variety of portable media players
