What is TVU Partyline?
TVU Partyline is a cloud-based Real Time Interactive Layer (RTIL) from TVU Networks that brings a live production team together in real time. Crew, talent and remote contributors share one session and see and hear the program as it is produced, so the team works as if it were in the same studio, wherever each person is.
Share fully synced signals, call takes, cuts and replay packages without worrying about latency, and collaborate in real time with your audio mixer. Sessions run on TVU's patented IS+ transmission protocol for broadcast-quality video and audio and signal resiliency over the public internet.

It uses TVU’s patented IS+ transmission protocol to ensure broadcast quality video and audio, as well as signal resiliency throughout a TVU PartylineTM session over the public internet, regardless of the number of participants.Latest TVU Solutions integrated with TVU PartylineTM:
