Digital Rapids' Solutions Win Awards

A leading provider of tools and solutions for bringing television, movie and Web content to wider audiences, Digital Rapids, has announced that four of the company's encoding, transcoding and streaming solutions have been honoured with 2010 Streaming Media Readers' Choice Awards as the top products in their categories.
The awards were presented at a special reception during the Streaming Media West conference and exhibition in Los Angeles. Digital Rapids' success marks the first time that any company has won four Streaming Media Readers' Choice Awards in the same year.
Digital Rapids' StreamZHD live and on-demand encoding system was voted as the best high definition (HD) hardware encoder. The standard-definition StreamZ encoding system, powered by the DRC-Stream hardware, was honoured as the best SD hardware encoder.
The Digital Rapids Transcode Manager enterprise-class, automated transcoding software won in the Encoding Software over $1000 category, while TouchStream was recognised as the top portable live encoding appliance.
Brick Eksten, President of Digital Rapids Corporation, said: "It's a tremendous honour to have so many of our solutions chosen as award winners by the people they're designed for - the end users of streaming media technology. We'd like to thank the readers of Streaming Media and our customers for these awards.
"These accolades highlight both the depth of our product lines and the individual strength of each of our solutions. And most importantly, they symbolise our ongoing commitment to delivering innovative solutions that truly improve our customers' use of streaming and multi-platform media."
