No More Cables or Delays: TVU Technology Streams Basketball Tournament Live
Seven TVU backpacks enable seamless broadcast production and YouTube streaming for Inter Highschool Basketball Tournament in Osaka.
CUPERTINO, Calif., June 18, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- OPTAGE Inc. (eo Hikari TV) successfully utilized seven TVU units, comprising TVU One and TVU PRS One backpacks, to deliver comprehensive coverage of the Inter-High School Basketball Tournament held on June 1st, 7th, and 8th, 2025. The deployment enabled simultaneous television broadcast recording and live YouTube streaming throughout the Inter Highschool Tournament.
The media production team implemented an efficient workflow addressing basketball broadcasting's unique challenges. Given the sport's fast-paced nature and critical requirement for real-time communication, all camera switching operations were performed directly at the venue to ensure immediate responsiveness to game action.
"Basketball is a fast-paced sport that requires zero-latency intercom communication, so camera switching was done on-site," explained Mr. Yamaguchi from the Media Production Team. "The switched output video, along with camera sources such as scoreboards and overhead shots, was transmitted in parallel to the station using TVU One and TVU PRS One backpacks. Final video mixing and commercial insertion were handled in the studio sub-control room at the station before transmission and recording."
The production workflow maximized TVU backpacks' parallel transmission capabilities, sending multiple video feeds simultaneously to the broadcast station's studio sub-control room. This approach allowed sophisticated post-production work including final video mixing and commercial insertion while maintaining the live broadcast schedule.
The TVU implementation delivered significant operational benefits that streamlined the entire production process. The advanced transmission systems achieved stable video transmission without requiring fiber optic installation at the venue, eliminating costly and time-consuming infrastructure work. The systems enabled parallel transmission of footage from cameras positioned in challenging remote locations, such as above the stands, significantly reducing on-site setup burden and cable management complexity.
Most importantly, there was virtually no delay difference between all seven TVU backpacks, dramatically reducing time needed for technical adjustments and synchronization. This consistency allowed the production team to focus on content creation rather than technical troubleshooting.
This successful deployment demonstrates how advanced transmission technology enhances sports broadcasting efficiency while maintaining broadcast-quality standards for both traditional television audiences and modern digital streaming platforms. The project establishes a compelling foundation for future sports broadcasting initiatives that demand flexibility, reliability, and professional-grade results across diverse venue configurations.

Samsung Confirms User Account Deletion—Now Just 6 Weeks Away
Account deletion warning for Samsung users. Future Publishing via Getty Images You may have seen warnings this week for Samsung users (1,2), as the Galaxy-maker prepares to delete user accounts. This mirrors Google and others who do the same for security reasons. So what accounts are affected, and how do you protect your own? First the good news. This only applies to inactive accounts. Samsung says this means accounts that have not been used for 24 months, and where that is the case, those accounts will be deleted from July 31. You may have multiple accounts — or perhaps you are not currently using a Samsung device. Either way, you need to act now. As SamMobile explained when this change first became clear, 'if you've used multiple Samsung accounts on different devices and haven't signed into one of them for a while, you may want to do so… Samsung says that this is being done in the interest of ensuring that the data of users who haven't used their accounts for two years remain protected.' If you do have any of these 'inactive' accounts, you should have received an email from Samsung. But if the email address associated with the account is also inactive, then you won't receive any warning at all. 'When an account is deleted,' warns SamMobile, 'access will be restricted and all of the data linked to that account will be deleted.' Samsung says to protect these accounts, 'log into or use a Samsung service or product while logged into the account so that it's no longer considered inactive.' Failing to do that, the company says, means 'accounts and data once deleted can't be restored.' Most Galaxy users are now more focused on the current One UI 8 narrative, likely asking how long they'll await for Android 16 with its new security and privacy updates. This is now live on Pixels and still in restricted beta on Samsung, with all hoping for a more seamless experience than was seen with One UI 7.

Asian shares mixed and oil prices stay high over Iran-Israel crisis
Asian shares were mixed and oil prices remained high on Wednesday as investors closely tracked the escalation of the conflict in the Middle East. US benchmark crude oil was down around 0.43% at $74.52 per barrel in the afternoon in Asia — or the morning in Europe. Brent crude, the international standard, slipped around 0.43% at $76.12, although both WTI and Brent remain high on the month. Crude prices rose more than 4% on Tuesday after US President Donald Trump left a Group of Seven summit in Canada early and warned that people in Iran's capital should evacuate immediately. Within about eight hours, Trump went from suggesting a nuclear deal with Iran remained 'achievable' to urging Tehran's 9.5 million residents to flee for their lives. Iran and Israel continued to exchange air strikes on Wednesday. The fighting has driven prices for crude oil and gasoline higher because Iran is a major oil exporter and it sits on the narrow Strait of Hormuz, through which much of the world's crude passes. Past conflicts in the area have caused spikes in oil prices, though they've historically proven brief after showing that they did not disrupt the flow of oil. Related Israel-Iran crisis: How vital is the Strait of Hormuz for oil market? Explosions ring out in Tehran as Israel says it struck a centrifuge site overnight Japan, meanwhile, reported that its exports fell in May as the auto industry was hit by Trump's higher tariffs, with exports to the US falling more than 11%. But Tokyo's Nikkei 225 jumped 0.78% to 38,837.48. Hong Kong's Hang Seng dropped 1.17% to 23,698.65 while the Shanghai Composite Index rose 0.3% to 3,388.77. The Kospi in Seoul gained 0.54% to 2,966.20 while Australia's S&P/ASX 200 shed 0.1% to 8,533.10. On Tuesday, US stocks slumped under the weight of higher oil prices and weaker than expected retail sales in May. Trump raised the temperature on Israel's fight with Iran by calling for 'Unconditional surrender!' on his social media platform and saying, 'We are not going to' kill Iran's leader, 'at least for now'. The S&P 500 fell 0.84% to 5,982.72 and the Dow Jones Industrial Average dropped 0.7% to 42,215.80. The Nasdaq composite fell 0.91% to 19,521.09. On early Wednesday morning in the US, S&P futures rose 0.11% to 5,991.50, Dow Jones futures increased less than 1% to 42,245.00, while Nasdaq futures advanced by 0.13% to 21,759.00. The markets will be looking to the Federal Reserve as it makes a decision on its interest rates today. The nearly unanimous expectation among traders and economists is that the Fed will make no move. In currency trading early on Wednesday, the US dollar fell 0.2% to 144.94 Japanese yen. The euro edged 0.18% higher, to $1.1502.
