Tieline Launches Enterprise Edition Report-IT iPhone Codec Application
Sep 9, 2010
Codec manufacturer Tieline Technology has announced the release of the new Enterprise Edition of Report-IT Live, the multi award-winning iPhone* 'live on location' audio codec application.
"The Enterprise Edition of Report-IT
Live has been released in response to requests from large networks
to simplify access to Report-IT Live for reporters,
provide better
security over their IP networks and allow the studio to configure
all connection settings," said Darren Levy, Tieline's International
Marketing Manager. "The TieServer powered Enterprise Edition of
Report-IT provides the ability for studio engineers to use cloud
computing concepts to program, manage and secure all live broadcast
connections across their IP networks."
Report-IT
Live Enterprise Edition delivers all the features of Report-IT Live
Pro with the ability for IT administrators and network engineers to
centrally administer all configuration of Report-IT from the
studio. This includes preprogramming all IP address, connection and
configuration settings remotely via TieServer from the studio, and
never exposing these details to reporters and contributors in the
field.
The
Enterprise Edition of Report-IT only allows devices access to
connect to the studio via password control. This delivers better
network security by controlling codec visibility across broadcast
networks.
All a
reporter has to do is download Report-IT Live Enterprise Edition
from the i-Tunes App Store, open the app and enter a preconfigured
password that has been provided to them by the studio. All the
dialing and connection settings will then be downloaded from the
secure Tieline TieServer cloud into the application
automatically.
"A simple
TieServer graphic user interface at the studio provides the
interface for network engineers to fully control who has access to
dial into their live broadcast networks over IP and how they
connect," said Levy. "It is also great for users because there is
no technical programming of Report-IT required whatsoever.
Reporters just download the app, login via a password and press
'Connect' to dial into the studio quickly and securely - it doesn't
get any simpler."
Studio
Engineers unfamiliar with how Report-IT Live works can answer most
common questions about the performance of the iPhone as a broadcast
tool by downloading Report-IT Lite from the i-Tunes App Store for
free. Report-IT Lite lets users record reports, FTP reports back to
the studio and even try live broadcasting - so it's easy to see how
features can be usefully deployed within their
network.

The iPhone's in-built microphone delivers robust, higher fidelity
FM quality audio compared with most other phones on the market. In
addition, Apple has a very strict policy for testing apps before
they are allowed to run on the iPhone, so the platform is extremely
stable for live broadcasting, recording, file editing and FTP
transfers. The Report-IT Live application will also run on the iPad
and iPod touch (2nd and 3rd generation).
