NevaTV - Quality streaming with cookies.

[Vievi]

I was going to hold off on posting this till tomorrow, but given the literal flood of PM's, emails and IRC queries I have received in regards to it - and the fact I feel we need to move on from recent drama, I think I'll just post it now and save my inbox the trouble! :)

NevaTV (http://nevatv.com) is a professional video platform that whilst offering traditional game casting features, offers a number of innovative features that it hopes will gain your attention.


Competitive game casting by a quality team.
Desktop player functionality.
Downloadable VOD content (including 1080p HD!).
iPhone streaming support.
Minimal advertising, if any!
Multiple players, including support for Flash, HTML5 and more.
Proven live delay technology.
Public live platform, want to stream a game with our technology? You can!
User uploaded VOD library, show the world your casting skills.


We're currently hiring both paid and volunteer staff, and are always interested in expanding our partnership opportunities with third party companies. If you think you have something to offer the NevaTV (http://nevatv.com) network, then just shoot an email opportunities@nevatv.com with a brief outline of what you can provide, what you want in return, and we'll get back to you as soon as we can.

Anyway, the prototype version of the platform will be going live on May 20th - and we'll be starting off with a live "meet the team" cast so you can see who and what we've put together, and what we have planned for the community.

[sHred`]

I think you forgot to post the link Ryan. ;)
But, anyone with a brain has already found it.

[song_tinh]

Hey Vievi, you can split VoD to 70 -80 MB / Part. My Internet is too slow and hard to buffering 1GB Video like HoNCast

[Marre]

I think you forgot to post the link Ryan. ;)
But, anyone with a brain has already found it.

As he said it wont be going live until 20th may, so guess the link gets released then.

[Bdiz]

The link is www.nevatv.com btw

[Marre]

Ah sweet, thought it was going to be held back until the release.

[Vievi]

The link is www.nevatv.com btw

Damn you and your capable brain! Anyway, we've come up with a few new ideas that we'll be implenting... as listed below!


Consistent interviews, we're aiming for daily!
Feature articles, I think this is self-explanatory.
Instant Replay! Want to know exactly what happened in that last big team fight? Select the "play by play" option for more detailed coverage of exactly what that Zephyr just did to faceroll the other team!

[WaRDeN]

looks cool, desktop streaming, no ads, html5, public live platform all seem really interesting

[alexandre]

great news

[Vievi]

Hey Vievi, you can split VoD to 70 -80 MB / Part. My Internet is too slow and hard to buffering 1GB Video like HoNCast

We will definitely be making low bitrate streams available with users with poor connections, and we're setting up (as in now) - edge nodes in Australia, Japan, China, France, Brazil and South Africa.

[Vulfe]

Cool.

[`sota]

I'm really excited to see this company bloom. I know the hard work that's being put in to make it a success and the features it will be providing will allow for the community to be more involved and hands on, which at this point in time I feel is really needed.

I love the replay idea by the way =]

[Gundamgaming]

Hurry up Ryan, I need a new place to stream :P

[Vulfe]

Question: Will you (Vievi) be shoutcasting at all? If not, why do you not grace the internet with your beautiful voice?

[Vievi]

Justin, drop me an email directly on ryan@nevadigital.co.uk and we'll get you setup so you can continue what you're doing! :)

[Vievi]

Question: Will you (Vievi) be shoutcasting at all? If not, why do you not grace the internet with your beautiful voice?

Haha, I doubt I'll be casting competitive matches, but I'll definitely be doing a lot of podcasting! :)

[Gedok]

Do you guys plan on going to Bloodline Champions?

[Vievi]

Do you guys plan on going to Bloodline Champions?

As of this moment, we have made no definitive decision on what other games we will be branching in to - we've had a number of suggestions made to us, and we will look at each and every one :).

[Gedok]

Alright. Reason being is because I've been in the beta for quite some time, so I know the game in and out.

[Whiteblade]

Good luck with the venture.

[Sl0ws]

Good Luck Neva do not go into business with a pedo bear again please. Not good for you or the HoN community.

[Vievi]

Alright. Reason being is because I've been in the beta for quite some time, so I know the game in and out.

Feel free to drop an email to opportunities@nevatv.com and we'll discuss this in more detail. :)


Good luck with the venture.

Thanks!

[Ashur]

Looking good so far, I like it.

[nephroid]

Sounds very promising. :)

And thus it has been responded to!

Thanks for your support :D!

I hope it lives up to your expectations. :)

[Streit]

Then we just need some hijacking of some of the good shoutcasters :D

But it sounds promising. Good luck with it.

[Otherside]

This sounds like win.

BTW any news on what positions are open in terms or being able to help out.

[Tazz]

BLC is pretty poopstick looking tbh =/

Haha, I've been accused enough of that lately - to not attempt to hijack anyone. If anyone comes to me though, it's a different story. :)

Anything and everything. If you think you have something to offer? Get in touch!

This is what we were waiting for! =]

Also, just so everyone knows! We've registered our own IRC channel!

Come join us at #NevaTV on the Gamesurge IRC network!

If enough user demand is apparent, we will also extend to Quakenet.

I highly doubt Breaky is going to join us, but we do have some big names. ;)

[Falle]

This looks great, I have faith in that you'll do very well. I got 2 questions:


Exactly what will you cover? Mostly HON gaming, or do you have more games/other areas in mind?

How much of competetive HON will you be covering? Like, only Neva sponsored tournaments, or will you cover everything that's remotely interesting?

[Hippie]

This looks very promising, I'll be highly interested in seeing how it turns out. It's a shame things had to turn out this way, but you guys seem like you'll do great on your own, whereas I was getting a little sick of HoNcast's clunky interface and poor streaming.

Emailed the opportunities address, quite interested in what might be available.

1. HoN will be the main focus at this point in time. However, we are looking at covering other games.

2. We will be covering as many tournaments as possible. It would only be smart to do it that way - but we should be covering as many tournaments as organizations allow us too.

[Radioman]

Good **** from Neva.

[milkheartyou]

Good luck guys.

[Guile]

awesome, really looking for a place to stream my matches. XFire is kinda ugly.. although it doesn't make me lag :X hopefully NEVATV doesnt. Going to send you an email shortly vievi

[s0v4]

If you manage to deliver, this will be epic GL

Also whats the ETA on all of this?

And maybe off topic but what is going to happen with the neva tournament?

EDIT : just noticed when it is going live, nvm the first question

[Aboo`]

I highly doubt Breaky is going to join us, but we do have some big names. ;)

hehe ok ;)

[thrake]

Sounds almost too good to be true. Definitely looking forward to your project.

[sHred`]

We have more than HoN in mind, StarCraft 2 and DotA will both be covered.

Pretty sure it's "cast everything we can".

[Asway]

Should add in Quake live that list^_^

Back on topic, Best of luck to you guys! I cant wait o to see what you guys can pull off.

[Condomplate]

Looking good, would like to see some casting companies with integrity.

I know for a fact I'll be streaming some HoN, Monster Hunter, just about any game I feel like on there.

[Vievi]

Yay, lots of replies! I'll try
Exactly what will you cover? Mostly HON gaming, or do you have more games/other areas in mind?

Whilst our primary focus is currently Heroes of Newerth, we are actively engaged in talks with other organisations to bring you content from a wide range of games.


How much of competetive HON will you be covering? Like, only Neva sponsored tournaments, or will you cover everything that's remotely interesting?

Anything that people want us to cast! We've had two events contact us so far, along with a couple of organisations testing the water. We'll definitely be covering the Neva events, and are toying with the idea of third party organisation casting for some games.

Neva is investing a significant amount of money in to upgrading the platform, and we're working on new technology to make things run smoothly.


Also whats the ETA on all of this?

And maybe off topic but what is going to happen with the neva tournament?

An early prototype version will be going up soon, and the tournament will continue as it currently does :).and summarize a list of responses here ^_^.

[Hsssh]

I hope that you`ll pull it off. Tbh, sounds too good to be true.

[Skellington]

Got to admit, those are some badass ideas.

[Vievi]

I hope that you`ll pull it off. Tbh, sounds too good to be true.

The infrastructure and platform is already in place, we've had countless applications for both paid and volunteer staff positions - and right now? I'm testing HTML5 video and 1080p over a mix of HTTP and RTMP. I did some iPhone testing earlier today, video playback was smooth - and once we're live, I'll look in to getting an iPhone app with direct playback developed. :)

[TripleTollum]

If you manage to get Sixy and Carm onboard instantly #1 shoutcasting service in the internet. The bosses are underappreciated in gr.org :(

[Engywook]

Sounds awesome, really looking forward to the html5 stuff. Good luck.

[feedtheid]

Shot an e-mail regarding possible shoutcasting/interviews/etc. This is in my degree field, and video games are in my life field.

[d``]

You better have a clean history.

[Vievi]

You better have a clean history.

Thankfully, I do. :)

Replied!

[Vievi]

Okay, after talking with the team and looking over the technology required for it, we're confident we can unleash our biggest surprise.

Please note, this awesome surprise will not be available on HD streams, and people with poor bandwidth connections probably won't be able to use it.

The surprise? Multi-lane cameramen and PiP (picture in picture) on streams. Seamlessly switch between lanes when action happens, and follow the lane that interests you the most!

[Hippie]

I know I already commented, but...

That is AWESOME.

Thank you, great news.

[TotalyMoo]

Sent you an email Vievi :)

[Cross]

Wow, i gotta say you sure are aiming big

I really hope that you will be able to get everything up and running as you saying.

[Anchovies]

I wasn't a fan of Neva ditching Honcast just before the finals of the Neva tourney yesterday; I thought it would have been better to do it after the tournament but anyway, best of luck with your new venture. Competition is alwasy healthy.

Uh... it -was- done after the finals. They were broadcasted.

[Anchovies]

Uh... it -was- done after the finals. They were broadcasted.

The absence of Breaky and other honcast shoutcasters from the finals suggests otherwise. Technically, the broadcast went ahead but the decision to drop Honcast appeared to be done and advertised before the finals. Apologies if this is wrong - this was just how it looked to me.

[FrOzEn_sKill]

Wow is no one else excited for the iphone feature?

FINALLY I can watch streams when I'm on a bus ride to school/work.

Thanks soo much :)

Breaky had to go, so Chapy casted. :)

[anon]

Seems like Vievi's running for president with this epic to-do list. Really hoping it all works out--you seem to have the technology side of things down. Now you just need some quality shoutcasters to make it interesting to listen to as well as to watch, and you're golden :)
Best of luck in the venture, Neva. I'll definitely be tuning in May 20th.

[cheami]

this looks very promising. i sincerely hope for a quality website. vievi is the new name to talk about regarding hon.

nevatv will outplay honcast in 2 weeks of it going live. calling in.

[T0mmyPickles]

With Hunter_ gone, I'm pretty sure that this game is no longer competitive.

:(

[Fishyy_]

android streaming support?

[SuffocatioN`]

With Hunter_ gone, I'm pretty sure that this game is no longer competitive.

:(

I'm pretty sure it has a higher chance of having a clean competitive history now that he is gone.

[plaq]

nobody should be bothered to pick sides in this drama. business relations rely very much on trust, especially sponsorships. and when that trust is gone (for whatever justified or unjustified reason) the stronger side will terminate the relation to protect its interests.

we've enjoyed the quality service of honcast for some time now, free of charge, and now its gone. now you can either mourne the loss forever and curse at whoever you feel is responsible or support the guy who steps up and offers to provide a similar, maybe even better service. vievi, i salute you. make sure to offer some kind of premium membership on the new site. im sure some others would also be willing to show their support and pay a moderate one time fee for good work.

so long

[cheami]

With Hunter_ gone, I'm pretty sure that this game is no longer competitive.

:(
with hunter gone, hon will be be exactly the same regarding competitive play.

[Solace]

With Hunter_ gone, I'm pretty sure that this game is no longer competitive.

:(

dumbest thing ive ever heard lol... this game has more money involved then dota/lol in the same time frame of release. wouldn't even be surprised if it does better without the shady acts of hunter.

[Orden]

I need my shout casting fix and I am not following the best video or the most competitive matches, I like those things too, but something about breakycpk is addicting. Not to mention all of the other sites I've found have a lot of people with irritating voices, so someone should give that man a raise and makes the VODs work soon so I keep my peace of mind.

[Skellington]

android streaming support?

Exactly! For those of us who hate apple ****.

Gosu gamers had this posted and cited from NevaTV - someone's not checking their verbage.


Update: A few more features of NevaTV's VoD interface were released.

- Consistent interviews, we're aiming for daily!
- Feature articles, I think this is self-explanatory.
- Instant Replay! Want to know exactly what happened in that last big team fight? Select the "play by play" option for more detailed coverage of exactly what that Zephyr just did to faceroll the other team!

---
Emphasis mine.

A faceroll implies there was little effort (that you could headbutt your keyboard and still win), not that Zephyr killed the crap out of their team. Know your internet jargon!

Good news!

[Punishment]

looking forward to this

care ftw

[boozo]

i'm really liking your ideas and plans vievi.
but i'm saddened that honcast and neva cant work together anymore, since i believe the synergies (shoutouts to breaky :P) would be better for the consumer than competing companies. and if the competition results in one of the pages shutting down, it'll be even worse :/

[Mith]

No breaky means that I won't be watching NevaTV. I don't care about who's right or wrong, breaky is the best shoutcaster out there. Sticking with honcast :)

[weedz]

honcast.com doesnt exist anymore.

[Falle]

No breaky means that I won't be watching NevaTV. I don't care about who's right or wrong, breaky is the best shoutcaster out there. Sticking with honcast :)

Ha this is actually something I feel Neva has going for them, no breakycpk. I can't help to feel that while he has a great voice, he becomes too mechanical in his casting. I don't feel I have to get into details, but I get tired of listening to him fast.

Chapy is by far the most pleasant one to listen to as a main broadcaster, in my opinion. I'd love to see chapy plus kaution doing expert commentating *crosses fingers for Neva*

[Sabrata]

Chapy is indeed one of the best and most entertaining caster i've heard!

gogo neva

[milkheartyou]

So u mean there is something better than neva?

[Vievi]

We're in talks with numerous people, but I'm happy to announce that Chapy and Snoopy will be joining the NevaTV team! :)

really nice to hear that you will do Android Support!

Other Question is, do you also have German Casters? Or just casting in English?

GET CHAPPY.

#1 shoutcaster who actually is a top player so provides good insight, funny, and has a good mic.

What more could you ask for?

Just to dispel some rumours going around, since I'm getting random messages on my phone at 5AM in the morning. :)

For those of you in the United States making over $4,000 with us and on a salary, we have an EIN for tax purposes (for your W2 form, e.t.c). We also have the relevant setup here in the United Kingdom, so no need to worry about that. :)

We're incorporating in the United States alongside the EIN, and will be based within the state of California - we're currently setup as a partnership until that's done however. In the UK, we'll be incorporating today in England & Wales as a private company limited by shares (LTD).

I thought Neva Digital was a big company - why would you be incorporating your company today? If you were actually a legit company - you should already be inc'd.

Also, why would you ALSO incorporate when all you need is a Federal Tax ID to operate within the United States? You don't need a physical address. Also, you said earlier that your so called "company" doesn't need a Federal Tax ID - but now you say you have one? I've got the logs to back it up as well - so don't try saying you were keeping me in the dark - that one's been used before.

I'll wait for the defensive reply. Or the attacks. Or the anger.

Neva Digital is indeed incorporated, I am referring to NevaTV. :)

The management board has agreed to incorporate in the United States as well, for numerous reasons - including the fact I will be spending half my time in California from next month onwards.

Also, you said earlier that your so called "company" doesn't need a Federal Tax ID - but now you say you have one? I've got the logs to back it up as well - so don't try saying you were keeping me in the dark - that one's been used before.

Sorry, I missed this point (almost 6AM here, so a bit tired). You do not need to report any earnings under $4,000 - so for people within NevaTV who are either not earning this much, or are earning $0 yet under a contract of employment, providing them with the EIN is entirely pointless, and not needed.

For people who earn more than this (we have a couple of people already above this mark), they've been provided with the EIN if located in the United States, and advised on what to do if located elsewhere.

If anyone has questions on corporate status, as always you can email me. If it's related to NevaTV though - email me on ryan@nevatv.com, I'll email you back as soon as I can!

vievi, right now you are one of my favourite people in hon

Neva Digital is indeed incorporated, I am referring to NevaTV. :)

The management board has agreed to incorporate in the United States as well, for numerous reasons - including the fact I will be spending half my time in California from next month onwards.

Lets dumb this down for people who don't know yet. When you say management board, you really mean you and your 5 fingers. We all know you couldn't care what anyone else has to say - so lets not act like you do.

Also - when I asked you this morning regarding which company you said I would be contracted under - you said I would be contracted by NevaTV - however, Neva Digital, LTD was listed on the contract....hmm.

By the way: It's $1,000 or less. I guess that business owner you guys consulted earlier isn't pulling through as hoped huh?

Carmen has an equivalent stake in ownership to myself, her say holds as much power as mine - and on both a personal and business level, I value her opinion greatly, more than my own. In reference to the other two board members, I have always listened to Penance's advice - and it's thanks to him in part, that our events run so smoothly.

Chapy recently joined the management team, we've had ideas going back on forth, we've interviewed applicants - and I truly value his opinion. I am extremely thankful we managed to acquire him, and I am happy we've put him in a position where he has power in the direction of the company, he's been nothing but an asset from day one. And day one was yesterday! ^^

In reference to the naming issue, I apologise, this was an error on my part. Since we have existing employee agreements in place at Neva Digital, I simply transferred them over. If I forgot to change the name, I'm sorry on that - they were changed for the others! :)

I don't get why can't you just take all honcast casters. I am sure they will agree to move to your platform. If they won't agree - that would be dumb.

My point is, you both will suffer from separating the community.

And i am somewhat sure that NTV will have premium features that cost $$$. They are making business here sooooooo....

I'll have to check with someone who is a specialist in US income tax (I'm no expert), but I do believe it's...

In terms of actual tax paid... in 2009, $5700 was the rate (standard deduction)... plus your personal exemption of what, $3650? I'll have to double check what the reporting threshold is though, so I'll get back to you on that once I have a chance to speak to a US tax specialist tomorrow. :)

Platform is looking great Vievi. I sent you an email :)

Discussing taxes has no place in this topic or in any public, on-topic section on this forum as far as I know. If you want get a boner over taxes than PM vivei directly or email him, thanks.

It's pretty widely known that competition is healthy, the only thing that adding another casting company into the mix will do is raise the quality of content for every casting company affected. Raise the bar if you will.
