Create/Upload Yourself:

When you use RealPlayer, or other compression and playback system, your original video feed is put through an "encoding" process that removes as much information as technologically possible from your original file. The result is the remarkable capability to deliver your video file over the Internet, even to viewers with dial-up modems.

But, there is a catch to this process, which is that encoding your video file for delivery both reduces perceived quality and alters the look of your original video. The result is a product which would disappoint most viewers, unless they were deeply interested in the content or unless, through substantial research, pre-planning and studio-style enhancement, the image was optimized several times along the way to provide effective end-user/ viewer experiences. By the way, these corrective techniques are not just lab procedures, but artistic work as well.

After substantial effort, feedback and surveys, we have a process that gives you access to high-quality corrective technique, allowing you to start out right, with stunning graphical and color-enhanced originals, using a method similar to high-contrast, color-copying techniques. Compensating for the effects of compression, we offer enhancement software that mimics this same type of enhancement on both images and sound, allowing you to make your screenings as clear and attractive as possible, based on advanced compensation technology.

Now you can preview your movie, send it to your friends in an email postcard, or put it on your website. You can even record additional video and insert it. You can specify how long images stay on screen with the display time feature. Arrange your footage, add music or narration to it for the scenes you've picked, title it, and you're ready to upload and post.

Video Assisted By Pros:

UsersGroup was began in March, 2000 as a Group Purchasing Program for video services, Web hosting and Internet TV tools by a group of investors and technicians who noticed the special needs of DotTV site owners. Many site owners, we found, are professionals who excel at what they do, but wished to let others help with video production and other matters outside their main realm of expertise. We also found many computer professionals interested in participating in the DotTV takeoff, along with video and production professionals who wanted to reach new audiences with what they do. Most were willing to do high-quality volume work for quite reasonable rates.

We first wanted to develop a program that would allow our end users to have full ownership of their projects, while we provided tools and assistance to help projects develop cost-effectively. Based upon careful observation, we feel the sky is the limit with DotTV branded Internet, for clients with strong entrepreneurial spirit that are willing to work for what they want, who develop quality sites and ride the wave of rapid expansion offerings, we knew this was the client base we wanted to help. Our UsersGroup now has both the desire and the support staff to do the extras, allowing you to be the best you can be at your core area of endeavor.

UsersGroup has in its short history become a serious provider of e-site video, streaming resources, TV video, along withsound and file management solutions. UsersGroup solutions are targeted at two fast-growing market segments: electronic commerce and TV commerce. Both Ecommerce and DotTV applications are penetrating even the most traditional of brick and mortar industries, with over 100,000 public DotTV purchases at last count.

Ecommerce revenues are predicted to increase 7 to 10 times within the next 5 years, with DotTV revenues maintaining a healthy share, attracting more and different users to their TV branded Web. To accommodate these users, our resources for switch and server-based products provide smart, secure content switching with transaction persistency. These combined capabilities help make new DotTV sites faster, more reliable, more secure and ultra-scaleable.
