NvTV Goes Global Due To Popular Demand

In response to many requests NvTv, Belfast's free-to-air local television service, is now available on-line.
Launching the not-for-profit channel on the Internet means that everyone with a broadband connection is now able to watch NvTv streaming live anywhere in the world accessing the station at: www.nvtv.co.uk "We've always known that developments which happen locally are of interest to people internationally," said David Hyndman, Community Media Development Director, 'being on-line gives people a taste of life in Belfast and provides a fantastic showcase for the work of the organisations and groups we feature."
Viewers also have the opportunity to select and watch other programmes on the web from the NvTv archive. "The Kick out the Jams series which is made by volunteers in association with local bands has proved very popular over the Internet."
Currently the work of over 40 Northern Irish musicians and bands is online including Therapy, Brian Huston, Duke Special and The Answer.
The week of the launch also sees The Artery, NvTv's local arts series, produced and hosted by Royce Harper, receive funding from the Lottery through the Northern Ireland Film and Television Commission.
"I'm delighted that NvTv is ahead of the curve in streaming on the net. This could bring a whole new audience to the channel and to the The Artery which, as a local grass roots arts strand, we were delighted to finance through the Lottery," commented Richard Williams, Chief Executive of NIFTC.
