PLANO, Texas, December 15, 2011 – ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, announced today that its Board of Directors has promoted John Hammock to President and Chief Executive Officer and named him to the Board of Directors, effective immediately.  In connection with Hammock’s promotion to Chief Executive Officer, George Platt will relinquish his role as interim Executive Chairman, but will remain Chairman of the Board of Directors.  The Company also announced that Christina K. Hanger and Lance E. Ouellette have been named to the Board of Directors, increasing the total number of board members to seven.

Hammock, who has more than 20 years of sales leadership and business development experience in the networking market and video streaming industry, joined ViewCast in 2010 as Vice President of Sales and has been serving as President and Chief Operating Officer since July 2011.

Hammock has assembled a new sales and marketing organization with Howard Barouxis as Vice President of Sales and Mike Galli as Vice President of Marketing. Under Hammock’s leadership, the sales and marketing team is leading ViewCast’s evolution into a more commercially-oriented Company focused on large national and international customers.

“During his time at ViewCast, John has proven his leadership abilities and created a more expansive sales and marketing strategy that we believe will propel us toward important revenue growth,” Platt said. “We feel confident in his expertise and look forward to a new era at ViewCast.”

A key part of ViewCast’s growth strategy will be looking beyond traditional broadcast markets to the large and rapidly expanding vertical markets such as telecoms and cable MSOs, noted Hammock.

“We of course will continue pursuing established customers in our traditional markets but the telecoms and MSOs have become a much more important part of our future,” Hammock said. “They are all exploring new ways to deliver video content to a variety of devices, including smartphones, iPad® digital devices and other wireless devices. We are currently engineering new features and enhancements to our existing Niagara® and Osprey® products that give them the functionality necessary for the new age of wireless, handheld portable devices. We believe ViewCast is positioned as never before to take advantage of the global demand for streaming video.”

Hanger, now a business consultant, combines strategic vision with strong operational experience. Previously as COO and CFO for venture capital-backed Worksoft, Inc., she led the company through a major growth initiative and brought it to profitability. As the former senior vice president of Americas Operations at Hewlett-Packard, Hanger led operations and IT supporting more than $30 billion in annual revenue in North and South America.  Earlier, she directed worldwide supply chain operations at Compaq Computer. Hanger began her career at IBM in various engineering and manufacturing positions. She has a Bachelor of Science degree in mechanical engineering from Virginia Tech and an MBA from Wake Forest University.

Ouellette is Executive Vice President, Asset Management for H.T. Ardinger & Son Co., a privately-held import/wholesale and investment conglomerate, and manages a multimillion dollar portfolio of equity, bond and real estate holdings.  In this role, Ouellette provides strategic management advice and oversight for investments and operations in pharmaceutical development, computer hardware and software development and sales, environmental technology and non-profits.  He has a Bachelor of Arts degree in economics from Rollins College. He is the stepson of H.T. Ardinger, Jr., a principal stockholder of the Company.

Hammock is a former Vice President of Americas Sales for Kasenna Inc., a publicly traded provider of software to telecommunications, cable, enterprise and consumer electronics manufacturers. During his tenure, he delivered 12 consecutive quarters of sales growth. From 2004 to 2006, he was Senior Vice President of Worldwide Sales at Voxpath Networks where he was instrumental in developing major opportunities with Tier-1 and Tier-2 service providers. Hammock was Vice President of Major Accounts for Columbia, Maryland-based Corvis Corporation from 2000 to 2004 where he delivered 83 percent of their total revenue over four years. His efforts helped the company successfully launch a $1.6 billion IPO. Corvis later became Broadwing Corporation which was acquired by Level-3 Communications.

PLANO, Texas, October 18, 2011 – ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media for the enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced that PrepSpin, the Kentucky-based sports broadcasting company, is successfully using Osprey® 460e video capture cards and Niagara® 2100 and Niagara 4100 streaming media systems to broadcast youth, middle, high school and other sporting events throughout the state.

"Since starting PrepSpin in January 2010, we have broadcast over 700 live and on-demand sporting events. We have also tested every video card imaginable, so we know firsthand that ViewCast products work perfectly," said William Warfield, founder of PrepSpin. "We haven't encountered any audio sync or video buffering issues with the Osprey 460e video capture cards. In fact, the video quality is so good that we are now able to broadcast to local TV channels. This has opened a whole new market for us, and we couldn't be happier."

John Hammock, President and Chief Operating Officer of ViewCast said, "We believe that the high school market is going to explode over the next couple of years. Hundreds of games are now webcast each week and thousands of high schools are also now webcasting educational TV programs and teacher-produced content. We believe that most high schools will be equipping themselves for streaming capabilities within the coming decade. Our Osprey, Niagara and VMp solutions are ideal for sports applications and we stand ready to serve broadcasters like PrepSpin that are looking to set up low-cost, single-operator, easy-to-use systems for sideline reporting and delivering the stream via the web in multiple formats."

Warfield added, "In addition to the Osprey cards, we have used the Niagara 2100 streaming media appliance to stream college baseball games through its remote interface. It was easy, and we were able to stream a live video feed of a game online without even being at the game. The Niagara units do more than just streaming. We have used them recently to record several versions of the same broadcast for upload. We can record a web version when internet access is not available at the high school games, and a higher quality version to make a DVD of the game. Try doing that with just a computer. It's easy for us to upload the web version in a matter of minutes and also transfer the high-quality version for file burning on a DVD through the sharing folder feature on the Niagara unit. ViewCast's Niagara systems are a must have for anyone serious about this business."

PrepSpin plans to use ViewCast's Osprey 460e and Niagara 2100 and will soon introduce the high-definition capabilities of the Niagara 4100 system to stream upcoming events, including the popular Kentucky Basketball Showcase (and pre-season event); the "Clash at Cameron" High School Basketball Showcase in Durham, NC; various roller derbies; Professional Indy Circuit Wrestling, and any one of over 200 high school athletics events scheduled for later this year.

ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media for the enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, has again distinguished itself from the competition with the release of an enhanced version of the Company's powerful Niagara SCX® streaming media management software. The new Niagara SCX 6.4 includes a number of advanced features, including support for adaptive live encoding via Microsoft® Live IIS Smooth Streaming and PlayReady® DRM support, updates to Akamai® HD iPhone® and iPad® streaming, improved MPEG-4 streaming, and presentation and security enhancements for the entire adaptive streaming portfolio. Full software functionality will be available on ViewCast's professional-grade Niagara® Pro II, Niagara 7550 and Niagara 4100 streaming media systems, with upgrades available to existing owners of ViewCast streaming systems.

"The world of media is changing at lightning speed, and our broadcast customers continually need to deliver content in an ever expanding variety of formats," said John Hammock, President and Chief Operating Officer of ViewCast Corporation. "The advanced feature set of our latest SCX 6.4 streaming media management software, along with the flexibility that adaptive streaming provides, delivers a winning combination of functionality, performance and reliability to satisfy today's wide spectrum of viewers."

At the heart of Niagara SCX 6.4 is the Adaptive Live Media Publisher component, which simultaneously creates multiple H.264 video streams that are time-aligned to support delivery in adaptive formats. Improved adaptive streaming presentation features dramatically improve the viewer experience by allowing the media player to dynamically select the appropriate bit rate, frame rate and scaling for each viewer's available bandwidth, eliminating "re-buffering" delays. Other added features that are new with SCX 6.4 include the capability for audio-only streams and a toggle for on-screen display statistics.

Version 6.4 now supports live encoding on even more of the most popular media formats, including Microsoft Live IIS Smooth Streaming as used for Set-top Boxes (STBs), PCs with Silverlight®, Xbox®, and Windows® mobile devices; Akamai HD iPhone and iPad streaming; Apple® iPhone, iPad and iPod® mobile devices; Adobe® Flash® Dynamic Streaming; 3GPP mobile and others. By eliminating the need for an external iPhone stream segmenter, ViewCast has simplified encoding workflows and reduced overall system costs.

Other new features of SCX 6.4 include improved MPEG-4 streaming start-up, which enhances the user experience by encoding MPEG-4 streams for file segmenting, transmission and storage, and the introduction of a passive FTP option for companies using firewalls that impede adaptive streaming deployment.

Standard features include integrated segmenting, support for multiple CDN authentication protocols, built-in AES-128 encryption, support for WM format SDK 11 with added support for Windows Media DRM Client Extended APIs, profile grouping, multiple stream redundancy (MSR), and automatic stream reconnect (ASR).

<>The Niagara 7550 also comes standard with ViewCast SimulStream® technology, which enables a single video source to generate several video streams at once, with each stream configured differently for laptops, cell phones, or mobile devices. It also allows simultaneous streaming in many popular formats, including Windows Media®, (Silverlight®), Flash®, H.264, as well as container support for 3GPP and 3GPP2.

Niagara SCX 6.4 is an enhanced version of the Company's powerful SCX streaming media management software. The new Niagara SCX 6.4 includes a number of advanced features, including support for adaptive live encoding via Microsoft® IIS Smooth Streaming and PlayReady® DRM support, updates to Akamai® HD iPhone and iPad streaming, improved MPEG-4 streaming, and presentation and security enhancements for adaptive streaming.

Improved adaptive streaming presentation features dramatically enhance the viewer experience by allowing the media player to dynamically select the appropriate bit rate, frame rate and scaling for each viewer's available bandwidth, eliminating "re-buffering" delays. Other added features that are new with Niagara SCX 6.4 include definition of standard profiles, improved presets availability, the capability for audio-only streams and a toggle for on-screen display statistics. These new features further enhance service provider ease of use while improving video quality.

Niagara SCX 6.4 will be available on ViewCast's professional-grade Niagara Pro II, Niagara 7550 and Niagara 4100 streaming media appliances, with upgrades available to existing owners of ViewCast streaming appliances.

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today reported year-over-year growth and strong operational progress for the first quarter ended March 31, 2011 and subsequent weeks.

The Company reported that revenue in the first quarter, as expected, reflected seasonal buying patterns and integrator uncertainty regarding government funding impacting the early part of the quarter followed by more robust sales volumes in March and April. The quarterly revenue was driven in large part by more than 35 percent growth in the sale of Niagara® appliances to both new and established customers.

Highlights of the First Quarter

Important progress made in the first quarter and subsequent weeks included:

• Participation in the Annual NAB conference where the Company previewed the Niagara 4100 and Osprey 710e and hosted live demonstrations of VMp, Niagara 7500 and Niagara 2120 streaming media encoders, and Niagara SCX 6.2 streaming media management software. The show also highlighted the Niagara 2120 and 4100 in bundled solutions with Sony's midrange video production switching products, which were demonstrated within both companies' booths.
• The release of two new Osprey video capture cards, the Osprey 460 and 260, for multi-stream, multi-platform delivery,
• The introduction of the 710e HD Card combining HD/SDI Video and AES digital audio capability in a single card,
• The signing of an agreement on May 4, 2011 with the holders of Series B, C and E Preferred Stock of ViewCast that results in the conversion of the majority of the Preferred Stock and eliminates accumulated and future dividends,
• The hiring of Kevin Dowd as Managing Director of ViewCast's Hong Kong office. In that role, he is responsible for growing ViewCast's business in China and the Asia-Pacific region, driving sales initiatives to deliver ViewCast products to new and existing customers, and training and support of the Company's distribution partners.

ViewCast President and Chief Executive Officer Dave Stoner said, "Following a very strong fourth quarter and full year 2010, we saw typical seasonal pullback in the first part of the 2011 first quarter that was deeper than we had anticipated. We also saw sales flow and order activity pick up significantly in both March and April, giving us good momentum into Q2. Our sales pipeline across our product portfolio continues to be healthy and we are seeing both existing and new customers finding new and innovative uses for our digital encoders as they look for look for new ways to monetize their digital media assets. Our recently expanded sales force and distribution channels worldwide are already producing new opportunities and new business and we continue to anticipate a year of steady growth in 2011."

First Quarter Financial Results

In the 2011 first quarter, revenues increased one percent to $3.71 million from $3.68 million in the prior year period. Operating expenses for the first quarter 2011 were $2.9 million compared to $2.7 million for the prior year period. Operating loss for the first quarter 2011 was $(750,000) compared to a loss of $(284,000) for the year-earlier period as the company continued to make investments in new sales and marketing infrastructure and initiatives both domestically and overseas.

Net loss for the first quarter 2011 was $(791,000) compared to a loss of $(311,000) in the first quarter 2010. After preferred dividends adjustment, the first quarter 2011 net loss per share applicable to the common shareholders was $(0.03) per share on a fully diluted basis compared to net loss per share applicable to the common shareholders of $(0.01) per share on a fully diluted basis in the first quarter 2010.

EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) for the 2011 first quarter was $(578,000), compared to $(54,000) in the 2010 first quarter. EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure that ViewCast management believes can be helpful in assessing the Company's overall performance and considers as an indicator of operating efficiency and earnings quality. The Company suggests that EBITDA be viewed in conjunction with the Company's reported financial results or other financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced that the University of Montreal has deployed a donated ViewCast Osprey® 440 video capture card and SimulStream® software to aid in the 24/7, live monitoring of a family of peregrine falcons that reside on campus. With this technology gift from ViewCast, the University is able to stream real-time video of the falcons to researchers, project supporters, and wildlife conservationists around the world.

"The University of Montreal's peregrine falcon monitoring project exemplifies the literally thousands of potential innovative streaming media applications enabled by ViewCast's streaming media solutions," said Dave Stoner, president and CEO of ViewCast. "Our media solutions are designed to be cost effective and easy to use, as this monitoring project demonstrates."

Once an endangered species in North America, peregrine falcon populations have soared in recent years due in part to the efforts of people like Eve Belisle, the University of Montreal's peregrine falcon project leader, who discovered the high-flying falcons in the area in 2007. Ms. Belisle aided in the construction of a nesting box atop a 26-story tower on campus, where the falcon family has nested since 2009.

Utilizing two video cameras, an IBM server and ViewCast's four-channel Osprey 440 video capture card, Ms. Belisle has streamed live video of the falcons to as many as 2,000 viewers per day, chronicling the family's nesting behavior and the arrival of five falcon chicks over the span of two nesting seasons. The two video feeds are supported by ViewCast's advanced SimulStream software, which leverages the Osprey 440's multi-channel capabilities to capture and output multiple video streams simultaneously.

"ViewCast's contribution to the University of Montreal's peregrine falcon monitoring initiative has enabled us to share live video of these wonderful creatures with a worldwide audience, and in so doing, promote the continued research and conservation of peregrine falcons," said Ms. Belisle. "ViewCast's technology makes it easy for non-broadcasting professionals like me to apply streaming media in creative new ways, and I'm grateful to have their support."

"ViewCast is delighted to contribute our technology and technical support to this initiative, and we wish Ms. Belisle all the best with her worthy endeavor," Stoner added. To see live streaming video of the peregrine falcon nest at the University of Montreal, visit

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today reported that it had signed a Preferred Stock Exchange Agreement with the holders of Series B, C and E Preferred Stock of ViewCast that will result in the conversion of the majority of the Preferred Stock and eliminate accumulated and future dividends.

The agreement calls for the holders of B and C series of preferred stock to immediately convert their holdings into approximately 16.7 million shares of ViewCast Common Stock, representing an exchange value of $0.60 per share.

The E series (non-dividend bearing) holder will have the right for the next twelve months to convert its preferred shares for 16 million shares of common stock, an exchange value of $0.50 per share. The E series holder will be compelled to exchange its shares for Common Stock at an exchange value of $0.50 per share if at any time in the next 12 months the Company successfully raises net proceeds of $7 million in one or a series of common stock offerings.

ViewCast President and Chief Executive Officer Dave Stoner said, "It would be difficult to overstate the importance of this agreement and the significance of this milestone for ViewCast, its stockholders and all of its constituents. The two classes of preferred stock that were converted at a substantial premium to ViewCast's share price were a necessary tool when they were issued many years ago as the Company was in its early stages. We are grateful to the Ardinger family and the other participants in those rounds, and we believe that their commitment to the Company during that period ensured the continuation and growth of the organization."

ViewCast's Chief Financial Officer Laurie Latham added, "In today's environment, the structure of the preferred securities has become an impediment to the Company and its common shareholders. The conversion of these shares will eliminate an overhang that inhibits new investment, share liquidity, financial results and the ability of the Company to list its securities on a national exchange."

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today unveiled the newest addition to its legendary Osprey® series of high definition (HD) video capture cards. The Osprey 710e HD is an advanced video capture card that allows users to ingest a combination of high-definition serial digital interface (HD/SDI) video and AES digital audio using four built-in AES/EBU inputs. This architecture eliminates the need for separate AES-to-SDI embedding equipment and simplifies overall workflow. Professional broadcasters, governments and OEM system integrators with broadcast-grade, HD/SDI video and AES audio needs can now use one card to deliver digital video and digital audio signals for their webcasting, live streaming, podcasting, mobile TV and Video on Demand (VOD) applications.

"The Osprey 710e HD card affords our professional broadcast customers a powerful new tool to enhance their video with AES/EBU audio capabilities," said ViewCast president and CEO Dave Stoner. "By accommodating digital video and audio processing with one card, we've enabled our customers to deliver the highest quality digital media to their audiences faster and more cost effectively."

The Osprey 710e HD high-definition and standard-definition (SD) combination video capture card comes with advanced features that distinguish it from competing cards used for ingesting video into video editing systems and other applications, including:

• SDI and AES digital audio
• High-powered PCI Express® (PCIe) technology for maximum performance
• Acceptance of both SD and HD inputs
• Automatic adaptation between SD and HD signals
• On-the-fly HD to SD downscaling
• Low-profile architecture for form-factor constrained environments
• Professional broadcaster features, such as loss of video detection, color space conversion, automatic telecine detection and processing, and automatic optimization for changing motion content

The Osprey 710e HD card also comes standard with SimulStream®, a premium driver enhancement that provides the ability to feed multiple encoding applications at the same time. SimulStream can be used with a variety of available streaming codecs to easily create and manage live streams, support SD and HD streams, and create multiple streams of the same type with completely independent settings for sizing, scaling, logos and bit rates. The SimulStream option enables:

• Completely independent settings for sizing, scaling and bit rates, plus logo overlays with dynamic positioning
• A multitude of simultaneous video format outputs

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced the availability of two new Osprey® video capture cards - the Osprey 260e and Osprey 460e. Both cards are designed to work with industry standard media encoding applications including Microsoft Expression Encoder and Adobe Flash Media Live Encoder, and are ideally suited for broadcasters, enterprises, governments and OEM system integrators looking for high-quality, reliable solutions for webcasting, live streaming, podcasting, mobile TV, video on demand and/or surveillance applications.

"Osprey video capture cards are widely recognized as the industry standard for high-quality, rock-solid streaming performance," said Dave Stoner, President and CEO of ViewCast. "With the introduction of the Osprey 260e and 460e cards to ViewCast's award-winning Osprey product family, we continue to improve upon that tradition as we extend our technology leadership to meet the demands of today's multi-platform digital media marketplace."

By adding SimulStream® to either card, users can encode content in multiple formats, bit rates and resolutions – simultaneously, from a single video source, to reach the expanding variety of devices available to consumers for viewing media content wherever they are. Both the Osprey 260e and 460e cards optimize the PCI Express (PCIe) bus architecture to unleash the power of modern multi-core PC engines with unfettered access to all PC resources. This capability means more power for the most demanding streaming applications.

The Osprey 260e provides one channel selectable between composite, component, or Y/C video and balanced or unbalanced audio in a low profile form factor, ideal for compact system enclosures. The Osprey 460e card is designed to simultaneously capture four independent channels of analog video and unbalanced stereo audio signals and process them independently, minimizing internal PC space requirements. The channel density offered by the Osprey 460e dramatically reduces total system cost by increasing the capture capacity within a single system.

The 460e A/V option also provides additional video inputs and four stereo balanced audio inputs to the rear panel connectors. The optional video inputs include the selection of component or Y/C (S-Video) for each of the 4 channels or 3 additional composite inputs for a total of 16 switchable composite inputs per card.

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced the hiring of Kevin Dowd as Managing Director of ViewCast's Hong Kong office. In this role, he will be responsible for defining technology solutions for customers in China and the Asia-Pacific region, supporting sales initiatives to deliver ViewCast products to new and existing customers, and training distribution partners. Mr. Dowd is based in Hong Kong.

"Expansion in the Asian marketplace is a key strategic driver this year for ViewCast and, in doing so, we are committed to providing world-class support to our existing and future Asian customer base," commented Dave Stoner, President and CEO, ViewCast. "Leveraging ViewCast's technology expertise with Kevin's existing relationships and understanding of the unique business climate of the Asia-Pacific Region, we intend to exceed our customers' expectations for our value-added products and services."

ViewCast first established an Asian presence in the late 1990's to harness the spectacular growth in this market and provide regional customers with high-quality, cost-effective streaming media appliances. Under Dowd's direction, ViewCast plans to grow its existing customer base and become the leading provider of streaming media and asset management solutions in Asia.

New analysis from Frost & Sullivan, Analysis of the World Total Broadcast and DTT Video Encoders Market, finds that the market earned revenues of nearly $190 million in 2009 and is expected to grow at a high single digit growth rate through 2016, fueled by digital deadlines and high definition upgrade revenues. Digital mandates are anticipated to fuel immediate demand for video encoders in Asia, particularly China, with HD and other advanced compression format upgrades being the real market drivers.

In addition, WinterGreen Research predicts that digital asset content management markets worldwide are anticipated to reach $558.6 million by 2014. This market growth is a direct result of movements to leverage the Internet as a channel, respond to implementation of broadband networks for video and image transmission, create automated marketing systems implementation, and leverage market opportunities brought by the ability to have data sent over portable wireless devices. Disparate changes in the presentation of video and image content promise to drive market growth.

"Kevin is a welcome addition to the ViewCast family," said John Hammock, ViewCast's Vice President of Sales. "He is an experienced professional with a successful track record of building and managing businesses in China and the Asia-Pacific region for leading multinationals."

Dowd brings to ViewCast a significant network of relationships among the largest manufacturing and service organizations in the region and at the highest levels of local and central governments in China and throughout Asia. He joins ViewCast from RGB Networks, a provider of video solutions to the cable and IPTV industries, where he served as Regional Director for the Asia-Pacific region and was responsible for developing sales throughout the APAC region, developing effective channel partnerships and direct sales to operators in China, Taiwan, Korea, SE Asia, Australia/New Zealand and India, and multinational Chinese OEM partners, including Huawei and ZTE. His previous work experience spans various companies, including Kasenna Inc, deCarta Inc, Verilink Corporation, Aethra Telecommunications Systems, Asialink Technologies, Accord Networks Inc., Polycom, Inc. (Polycom Network Division) and STT Ltd., Shanghai, China.

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST),ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced that the Company had a strong fourth quarter of 2010, the third consecutive quarter of substantial year-over-year revenue growth. ViewCast management expects to continue significant annual growth for 2011 and looks forward to introducing new products and features along with establishing additional strategic business partnerships throughout the year and into 2012, according to President and CEO Dave Stoner. Full financial results for the 2010 fourth quarter and year will be announced at the end of March.

"Once again we achieved steady, substantial fourth quarter and year-over-year revenue growth," Stoner said. "Thanks to the recovery of the economy, our investments in product development and an influx of talented senior management and staff, we believe we are on track in 2011 to enjoy the best year for digital media product sales in ViewCast's history."

Stoner outlined some of the major accomplishments of 2010, including:

• A record year for business with ViewCast's largest OEM customer.
• The enthusiastic customer response to the launch of the Niagara 4100, a rugged, portable streaming media appliance that delivers high-definition (HD) video from virtually any location.
• Addition of Apple HTTP Live Streaming for the iPhone and iPad to the Niagara encoding platform.
• New experienced senior leadership in sales, business development and product development.

Stoner's positive outlook for 2011 is based on a variety of market and other factors. He said, "The data we see on emerging customer activities indicates that we are returning to a solid base with more normal seasonal purchasing patterns. That indicates to us another strong year of growth with the first quarter showing the least strength as annual plans take shape, followed by steady growth in the balance of the year as those customer plans are executed. We also anticipate the kick-off of at least one new large customer relationship in the first half of 2011 reinforcing that pattern."

According to new analysis from Frost & Sullivan, digital mandates are anticipated to fuel immediate demand for video encoders in Western Europe, with HD and other advanced compression format upgrades being the real market drivers. ViewCast is poised to capitalize on this opportunity with its high-performance, easy-to-use solutions for webcasting, mobile streaming and Internet TV, and innovative capabilities such as high definition to standard definition switching-on-the-fly, widescreen signaling, bitmap overlay, de-interlacing, inverse telecine, and a wide range of other professional features.

Stoner continued, "Substantial new business opportunities exist in the market and our products are well positioned to capture those sales opportunities identified. We believe by increasing our sales reach into the market and feet on the street, more sales opportunities will be generated under our capable sales leadership; such initiatives will likely translate into continued and accelerated revenue growth."

That confidence has been reflected by private investors including a ViewCast board member resulting in the Company's recent $750,000 equity raise at the end of 2010. The capital added a little kick start to accelerate the addition of sales staff and increase lead generation programs besides providing additional operational working capital. Already, the expansion of the Company sales force into a truly global unit with new team members in Europe and a local presence in the Asia-Pacific region has been accomplished.

"We have methodically built a foundation for another growth year in 2011," Stoner concluded. "Our strategy continues to be to expand our global sales footprint by enhancing our internal sales team, partnering with key global distributors and seeking strategic merger and acquisition prospects, while at the same time investing in product development to meet the needs of a rapidly evolving marketplace."

—ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced that Israeli-based Go-Live has selected ViewCast's Niagara® 2120 streaming media appliance for its Go-Live broadcasting Kit®, a portable, light-weight broadcast device that transmits high-quality live video on the internet via a fully mobile and wireless workflow.

A true end-to-end solution, the Go-Live Kit allows real-time, professional-quality Flash® H.264 streaming over 3G networks via cellular modem, and is alternatively available with Windows Media 9 support. Offering "push button" simplicity for live, on-location broadcasting and simple IP-based log-in controls, the Go-Live Kit is both easy to use and maintain. Best of all, it fits conveniently in its own backpack and weighs less than 14 lbs., so that it can be easily carried by a single cameraman. The Kit virtually eliminates reliance on expensive satellites and mobile studios, enabling news agencies, TV stations and other production facilities to produce live news events from any location on the globe utilizing available mobile infrastructure.

"When we considered the core streaming appliance that would power our portable broadcasting kit, we decided to buy rather than try to develop the core encoder ourselves. This saved us significant amounts of time and money, and allowed us to focus on the product's key peripheral devices,"
said Eitan Ortal, CEO and CTO of Go-Live.

"The Niagara 2120 was primarily chosen due to its portability, small form factor and price, but it was as if the Niagara 2120 was built specifically for us," continued Ortal. "It had everything we needed: accessibility, high-quality video encoding, rigid structure, and intuitive operation. We are proud to say that our Kit is now the most reliable platform we offer. It streams in even the most demanding environments, and offers spectacular image quality and long battery life thanks to the core Niagara 2120 encoder."

"Go-Live's novel backpack-contained broadcasting system exemplifies the innovation and agility that ViewCast strives to cultivate with our high-performance, portable Niagara encoders," said ViewCast President and CEO Dave Stoner. "By enabling broadcasters to capture and stream live action wherever it happens without compromising performance or video resolution, ViewCast and Go-Live are helping to push the boundaries of streaming media applications."

— ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over enterprise, broadband, and mobile networks, today announced that UPS's Communications Digital Asset Management (DAM) system, powered by ViewCast Media Platform (VMp™) Digital Asset Management software, was the recent recipient of a 2010 DAMMY Award in the category of Best Storage, Archive and/or Preservation Solution. Winners of the inaugural event were announced at Createasphere on September 24, 2010.

"This DAMMY Award is well-deserved recognition of a truly innovative storage, archive and media management solution," said Suzan Sherburn, Director of Brand Management for UPS. "By combining the ViewCast Media Platform with the UPS DAM team's commitment to preservation and access, we've created a highly customized DAM system that improves global communications and ensures consistency of the UPS brand, while preserving our assets and enabling the creation of new assets that will have lasting importance to the company."

For seven years, ViewCast has played a key role in the design, implementation and success of the UPS Communications DAM system, which leverages the capabilities of VMp Production to manage the UPS Brand Exchange® website. UPS Brand Exchange, which launched in 2003, is the official online resource for the tools that UPS employees and brand communicators need to effectively communicate the UPS brand. It also enables customers, sponsored organizations, and other third parties to obtain branded materials.

"As a Fortune 50 corporation, UPS manages a complex array of global operations and facilities," said Dave Stoner, ViewCast President and CEO. "VMp is able to address UPS' diverse operations and cross-functional objectives, while providing the flexibility to support the company's unique DAM requirements as their business needs, objectives and applications continue to evolve."

With the help of ViewCast, Brand Exchange was developed into three distinct DAM portals representing three levels of access to DAM assets. The DAM team also insisted on core preservation principals in metadata modeling to repurpose existing assets in order to save the company money. VMp's ingest process was able to collect metadata from the company's varied systems and integrate the UPS library with the DAM system, porting SQL data into the XML DAM. Today the UPS system has six metadata models – one each for photos, documents, graphics/logos, video, web, and reports. These models are continually refined to meet the needs of users, and training for both portal use and metadata creation is frequently scheduled.

Improved workflow and a streamlined brand request/approval process resulted in an immediate return on investment. Benefits extended beyond cost savings to include stronger integration between UPS's communications departments, and easier employee access to the most recent versions of guidelines, office templates, legal documentation, photography and other materials needed to present the UPS brand consistently around the world.

About the DAMMY Awards

Createasphere launched the DAMMY Awards in 2010 to recognize excellence in digital asset management. They acknowledge achievement and resourcefulness in DAM, recognizing pioneering individuals and organizations that have created new revenue opportunities, efficient workflows, exceptional storage and archive solutions, and more. Createasphere held the first annual DAMMY Awards on September 24, 2010. http://www.createasphere.com/En/dammys.html

Next month at IBC 2010 in Amsterdam, ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over broadband, enterprise and mobile networks, will showcase its latest software and digital media management solutions, designed to optimize the management, scheduling and online delivery of rich media content. ViewCast products that will be showcased at the event include Niagara SCX® 6.2 streaming media management software with support for HTTP-based adaptive streaming to Apple® mobile devices; SchedulStream® scheduling software used to schedule and automate the timing of live streaming events; and ViewCast Media Platform (VMp™), a unified framework that helps organizations manage the full life cycle of their digital media.

"ViewCast's commitment to meeting the unique needs of digital content generators, distributors, and consumers is stronger than ever, and this is reflected in the breakthrough solutions that we've introduced to the market in 2010," said ViewCast President and CEO Dave Stoner. "Our ever-accelerating pace of innovation ensures that our customers are equipped with the industry's most powerful, flexible streaming media and digital media management capabilities, and this will be on full display at IBC 2010."

Niagara SCX® 6.2

is an enhanced version of the Company's powerful streaming media management software that supports HTTP-based adaptive streaming to Apple® iPhone®, iPad® and iTouch® mobile devices. New features include integrated segmenting, adaptive bit-rate encoding, support for CDN authentication protocols, and built-in AES-128 encryption. Niagara SCX software supports all of the most popular media formats, including Adobe Flash Dynamic Streaming, Windows Media/Silverlight, 3GPP mobile and others. By eliminating the need for an external iPhone stream segmenter, ViewCast has simplified encoding workflows and reduced overall system costs.

At the heart of Niagara SCX 6.2 is the new "Adaptive Live Media Publisher" component, which simultaneously creates multiple H.264 video streams that are time-aligned to support delivery in adaptive formats. Adaptive formats dramatically improve the viewer experience by allowing the media player to dynamically select the appropriate bit rate for each viewer's available bandwidth, eliminating "re-buffering" delays.

SchedulStream®

scheduling software enables users to schedule and manage the date and time of live streaming events or multiple streaming sessions on ViewCast Niagara encoding appliances.

ViewCast Corporation (OTCBB: VCST), a developer of industry-leading solutions for the transformation, management and delivery of digital media over IP and mobile networks, today announced that TVTI Video Technologies Inc. has selected ViewCast's award-winning Osprey® 700e HD video capture cards to underpin the company's video analytics solutions and services for professional sports teams. With high performance Osprey 700e HD cards at the heart of TVTI's HD video infrastructure, coaches and scouts are afforded a high resolution view of player and team performance mechanics.

"TVTI clients such as the New York Yankees rely on our video analytics technology to help them improve team performance and assess competitors' weaknesses," said Mark Watson, founder of TVTI. "Ultimately, the value that we provide to our clients begins at the video capture stage. Osprey 700e cards equip us with the performance and reliability that we need to satisfy our world champion clientele, while providing the configuration and management flexibility that we need to drive cost and resource efficiencies across our systems."

 

"The professional athletics market is yielding some of the most exciting, innovative applications of video capture and streaming technology in the industry, and TVTI and its clients are at the forefront of this trend," said ViewCast President and CEO Dave Stoner. "ViewCast's advanced HD capture and streaming solutions are the ideal fit for any athletics organization seeking a high performance, high throughput video platform to efficiently deliver content to coaches, players, and fans."

TVTI has deployed numerous Osprey 700e-equipped video/data capture systems into the field for use onsite at clients' home games, with great results. The New York Yankees are using a TVTI system to record and archive four angles of every pitch in HD. Using four Dell® Precision workstations equipped with Osprey 700e HD cards, the Yankees' video production team records approximately 300 pitches per game, yielding 1200 raw HD AVI files for each home game. The video files are later compressed, organized, and archived for rapid retrieval.

Back at TVTI headquarters, racks of Osprey 700e-equipped Dell Precision workstations are employed to record MLB and NHL game feeds throughout the day. TVTI software tools are used to segment these feeds into individual 'event' files and synchronize these files with player-specific statistical data provided by third-party partners. The video is then distributed to clients, who will use it to analyze their competitors in the days preceding a game.

Renowned for their performance, reliability and management versatility, Osprey 700e HD cards enable advanced capabilities such as dual SD/HD support with seamless on-the-fly signal switching, and the ability to feed multiple encoders (RealVideo®, Windows Media®, Adobe® Flash® and MPEG-4) at the same time in any combination. The Osprey 700e HD card provides TVTI with the bandwidth required to deliver up to 1080i video resolution via a high-speed PCI Express® bus, and also features configurable archiving capabilities that help simplify post-processing workflows for TVTI's video scouting service.
