InfoWorld | at | by Mike
PacketVideo, a provider of MPEG 4 streaming video to wireless carriers announced this week that it will support Windows Media Audio and Video 9 series in its PacketVideo pvServer Mobilemedia content delivery system. The PacketVideo technology is embedded in handsets and PDAs and has a server component. The agreement between the two companies means that PacketVideo will be able to deliver Windows Media content to handsets not using Microsoft's Pocket PC operating system, such as the Symbian operating system, used by Nokia, and data-enabled cell phones of Ericsson. PacketVideo will also use Microsoft's .Net technology to add SOAP and XML interfaces to MPEG 4 and Windows Media systems.
