As the country with the largest Muslim population globally, Indonesia’s welcoming of the Pope held substantial significance. Highlighting this visit was the meeting between Pope Francis and Indonesian President Joko Widodo at the Presidential Palace in Jakarta, which drew the focus of global media.
To underscore this historic moment, the Indonesian government decided to broadcast the meeting live. The event was simulcast on all major Indonesian television channels and streamed globally on social media platforms such as YouTube, aiming to convey a message of peace and friendship between different religions to the world.
Indonesian National Television was charged with this significant live broadcast task, facing unprecedented challenges. Traditional live broadcast methods are limited by geographical location, network coverage, and transmission stability, making it difficult to meet high-quality, low-latency broadcast requirements. Ensuring stable return of high-quality audio-visual signals from various indoor and outdoor scenes, especially in sensitive areas like the Presidential Palace, was the primary challenge. After extensive consultations and validations, Indonesian National Television selected the TVU One live broadcast backpack as the core broadcasting equipment to overcome these challenges. The TVU One is capable of delivering high-quality video transmission in complex environments via multiple public mobile networks without relying on traditional satellites or dedicated lines, significantly simplifying the broadcast process and enhancing the efficiency and flexibility of live production.
Throughout the live broadcast, TVU One demonstrated impressive technical capabilities:
- The IS+ proprietary protocol and its algorithms effectively solved the issue of asynchronous connections across multiple mobile networks, achieving efficient multi-path transmission of audio-visual data through bandwidth aggregation.
- The intelligent VBR dynamic encoding technology based on HEVC provided high-quality audio-visual encoding adaptable to network fluctuations.
- FEC (Forward Error Correction) further guaranteed low-latency transmission of the live signal.
The successful live broadcast of the meeting between Pope Francis and the Indonesian President not only showcased the exceptional performance of TVU One in complex environments but also highlighted the critical role of technology in promoting cross-cultural exchanges and spreading peace. Through advanced live broadcasting technology, this historically significant meeting was presented to a global audience in real-time, allowing people from different faiths and cultural backgrounds to witness this important moment together. As live broadcast technology continues to advance, innovative solutions like TVU One will play an increasingly vital role in facilitating global dialogue and enhancing international understanding, contributing to the creation of a more open and inclusive world.
