TiVo and Harmonic Unveil Network PVR Prototype at IBC
2013年9月12日 - 9:02PM
Marketwired
TiVo Inc. (NASDAQ: TIVO), a global leader in the advanced
television entertainment market, and Harmonic (NASDAQ: HLIT), a
leader in video delivery infrastructure, today announced that they
will demo a prototype of their next generation network PVR, fully
equipped with an integrated multiscreen solution backend from
Harmonic during the International Broadcasting Conference 2013
(IBC) in Amsterdam. A select group of TiVo clients, business
prospects, and media will be able to demo the nPVR. This demo marks
an important step toward TiVo's goal to enable cost effective and
feature rich paths for operators to transition toward an IPTV
solution.
The TiVo network PVR will use TiVo's Emmy Award-winning service
delivered from the cloud and is a natural extension of the TiVo
solution. This is an important next step for operators as they
consider a transition to IP delivered content and utilization of
low-cost IP clients and consumer provided devices (tablets,
smartphones, etc.) with an eye toward enhancing the user experience
inside and outside of the home, which is becoming a critical
component in the increasingly competitive video market. TiVo's
network PVR extends the TiVo Service and consistent user experience
while enabling consumers to easily find, consume and socially share
cloud delivered content through the TiVo user interface.
The foundation of the TiVo service and cloud based architecture
enables Pay-TV operators to access a multitude of 'TV Anywhere'
content, including IPTV, IPVOD, catch-up, start-over and nPVR from
the Emmy® award winning TiVo service in the cloud on TVs via
low-cost IP clients and consumer provided devices (tablets,
smartphones, etc.). TiVo's offering will reduce operator capital
expenditures, enable them to manage business rules, including
complex content rights and operator policies, and generate a
richer, more consistent user experience for their subscribers. As
more content and services become cloud-based, TiVo will enable
operators to give consumers everything they want, including linear
TV and start over with 'super catch-up,' a personally tailored
interface, unlimited recording capability, multi-screen viewing and
the ability to interact with other users on the network. TiVo's
network PVR will also soon offer operators contextual promotional
capabilities, social TV and recommendation filtering across
disparate libraries of content. TiVo and Harmonic have worked
together prior to this initiative. The deployed Virgin TV Anywhere
solution in the U.K. demonstrates how the companies enable the
transition to IPTV.
The high quality content is prepared using Harmonic's integrated
multiscreen solution. Harmonic brings together the ProMedia™ Live
real-time multiscreen transcoder with enhanced H.264 video codec
technology for creating high-quality adaptive bitrate video
streams, ProMedia Package adaptive stream preparation application,
ProMedia Origin HTTP streaming video server, and Harmonic MediaGrid
shared storage to address the demand for video delivery to Internet
and mobile devices.
Thierry Fautier, Vice President Solutions & Strategy at
Harmonic, said, "As the worldwide leader in video delivery
infrastructure, we are thrilled to again collaborate with TiVo and
demonstrate here how our best in class ProMedia multi-screen
content preparation applications for live transcoding, packaging,
and origin server, integrated with our MediaGrid shared storage
solution can be used to play an integral role in powering a next
generation network."
Joshua Danovitz, Vice President, Innovation at TiVo, said,
"Operators are working to enhance the experience they are
delivering to their customers through delivering an experience they
love on any screen, while reducing their costs. The TiVo network
PVR is just one step toward our goal to support the transition to
content everywhere via IP and this prototype serves as an example
of the constant innovation that guides our vision to give consumers
everything they want, anywhere they want it. Extending the TiVo
service to address network storage, as well as enabling the
oversight and management of complex content rights and operator
policies, is a core strategy in moving operators to a full IP
environment and this prototype offering is a clear example of how
TiVo can use its deep TV industry expertise to help operators
evolve to deliver a cohesive next generation viewing experience.
During the project, Harmonic has demonstrated excellence in
delivering an enterprise solution that addresses the key
infrastructure needed to deploy a full IP solution."
IBC 2013 runs from September 12-17 in Amsterdam. TiVo's booth is
located at stand number 14.531/hall number 14. Harmonic's booth is
located at stand number 1.B20/hall number 1.
