Singapore, July 18, 2011 – Danny Wilson, Pixelmetrix President & CEO, will be addressing attendees at the SMPTE Australia Conference on the QoE/QoS Performance Metrics for Over-The-Top Video. He is scheduled to speak on Thursday, July 21, 1.30 pm, Conference Room 2, Hall 3 of the Sydney Exhibition Centre.

Wilson said, “Reliably delivering TV content to the next generation of mobile devices requires a new toolset to manage QoS and QoE.  With the hype surrounding OTT in this era of ubiquitous TV, more and more companies are rushing to market.  With so many players, competitive advantage will be reduced to two things: content and quality."
