Remote Counsel Streaming

Features

• No software costs. Neither court reporter nor attorney need purchase software to utilize Remote Counsel Stream. Other streaming provider requires expensive software subscriptions.
• Transcripts are accessible after the deposition concludes and can be saved as an ASCII file. Other streaming provider's transcript is not available once the reporter disconnects.
• Remote Counsel Streams can be "time shifted" so that the video is also available after the deposition concludes. There is no extra charge to have depositions time-shifted.
• Attorneys can monitor multiple depositions simultaneously. Other streaming provider limits monitoring to a single deposition per computer.
• You can host your own branded login page. Direct your clients to your webpage to see your streaming transcripts. Other streaming provider makes your clients go to their webpage.
• Brand the client viewer window with your logo and information.
• Remote Counsel Stream can be initiated from any videoconference unit.

Streaming Equipment

Video

Courtroom Connect provides two methods for streaming: streaming from a videoconference unit, and mobile streaming through a VBrick encoder.

• Streaming Suites (via videoconference) - Remote Counsel Members can simply turn on a videoconference unit at the deposition and Courtroom Connect will take the audio/video from the videoconference unit and stream it out to viewers.
• Mobile Streaming (via VBrick encoder) - For a more mobile solution, Courtroom Connect provides the VBrick encoder. This unit works with s-video or composite input and RCA from the videographer's camera. The onsite requirements include a high-speed Internet connection and Port 80 open outbound.

Real-time Text

• Remote Counsel - To stream Remote Counsel web-based text, the reporter needs Case Catalyst 4.5 or higher, or Cat Shuttle software (a free download).
