San Francisco – January 6th, 2009 – PoliceOneTV (www.PoliceOneTV.com), an online resource providing original law enforcement-related video, today announced the availability of its popular video series and segments on Adobe® Media Player, a cross-platform Adobe AIR application that lets viewers discover and interact with their favorite content. Beginning in January 2009, viewers will be able to access PoliceOneTV’s entire library of original law enforcement programs, including the popular “Will to Win” and “Fitness with Di Naso” series, directly from Adobe Media Player.
PoliceOneTV, the original video component of leading law enforcement Web site Police1.com, joins several other major content providers and creators also distributing their content through the Adobe Media Player, a lightweight application that offers new features for both viewers and content owners. The player allows viewers to watch content online or download and view videos offline, all with full-screen playback. Adobe Media Player also offers a powerful subscription feature, which will enable viewers to subscribe to their favorite PoliceOneTV series and then automatically receive new episodes as they become available.
“The collaboration between PoliceOneTV and Adobe enables us to present our original content to both domestic and international law enforcement professionals through a simple video interface and content platform that many of them are already using,” said Alex Ford, CEO of Police1.com. “This alliance demonstrates that Police1 is the clear leader in providing online and offline video solutions that help law enforcement operate more efficiently, effectively and safely.”
“The compelling, mission-critical content provided by PoliceOneTV is a great addition to the Adobe Media Player catalog and an important resource for officers everywhere,” said Desiree Motamedi, senior product marketing manager for Adobe Media Player at Adobe. “Adobe Media Player also is a convenient option for officers, who can queue up and download PoliceOneTV content, track and download new episodes automatically, and manage their personal video library.”
PoliceOneTV, which launched in March 2008, has created more than 100 pieces of exclusive content featuring internationally recognized law enforcement experts such as Dave Smith, Betsy Brantner-Smith and James Di Naso. PoliceOneTV features videos from three main categories: P1TV Original, consisting of hard-hitting stories and interviews; Training, covering all aspects of law enforcement training, including health and fitness; and Products, featuring product reviews and demonstrations to assist officers in the product evaluation and procurement process.
PoliceOneTV premieres three new segments - one from each main category - each Monday night at 8:00 p.m. EST/5:00 p.m. PST.
