SAN MATEO, CA – August 25, 2004 – Video delivery innovator RGB Networks has joined SeaChange International's Certified Partner Program. RGB's groundbreaking Video Intelligence Architecture (VIAT) will be integrated with SeaChange's Video-On-Demand System to increase the efficiency and cost-effectiveness of sophisticated video services.

"By integrating VIA with SeaChange's open VOD server architecture, we will significantly enhance and improve the capabilities of the on-demand video delivery industry."
RGB Networks' VIA provides highly scalable and cost-effective bandwidth expansion for advanced video services such as VOD. By coupling VIA with SeaChange's widely deployed and proven MediaCluster server technology, service providers will reap even greater stream densities at lower costs.
"SeaChange is focused on helping operators maintain the widest field of choices when planning their VOD services," said Yvette Kanouff, corporate vice president of strategic planning, SeaChange. "Our open architecture is the cornerstone of this advantage and by integrating with leading solutions such as RGB's, we will maintain that advantage. Hundreds of unique SeaChange VOD rollouts worldwide prove its ability to integrate a growing array of options from headend to set-top."
