TVU Networks, a global technology and innovation leader in live IP solutions, announced that Televisió de Catalunya's (TV3) ‘Minut a Minut’ sports television program successfully relied on TVU's mobile transmitter app TVU Anywhere to simultaneously host more than 25 football fans globally in a virtual talk show during a two hour live broadcast on their channel Esport3. The program's panelists were able to engage in live video exchanges with fans in full HD picture quality and with minimal delay.

“The TVU Anywhere transmissions ran flawlessly throughout the broadcast, which was especially important when switching between the numerous live fans,” reported Daniel Barcon, Director of ESport3 at TV3. “We had full control to activate, deactivate and set the time period of validity for the multiple accounts, which was very reassuring. The ease of the technical setup, as well as the functionality of the TVU Anywhere app for participants allowed people from a variety of different backgrounds to connect with each other over their passion for football.”
