This agreement is particularly important for Hispasat for two reasons. First, it strengthens its position in the area of distribution of audiovisual content to theaters. In addition to a first initiative in Spain in 2013, similar, have occurred such as the agreement reached in Mexico for the distribution of movies and live events, or the agreement signed with the Teatro Real of Madrid for the live broadcast of the operas of the theatre in cultural centers and other institutions. Secondly, it is another achievement in the strategy of expanding services in Europe that the operator has been developing in recent years.

So far, the distribution of films to cinemas was carried out mainly through DCP (Digital Cinema Package) files using hard drives. This implies the creation of hundreds of copies of the original, that then are packaged and sent to the different rooms of cinema in which is screened. The cinemas downloaded the content of the disc hard in the server of the projector and then return the disc to the Distributor to be used again. All of this implies complicated logistics that is not free of risks and delays.

Gracias a acuerdos como el firmado entre Hispasat y Telespazio, todo este proceso puede ser sustituido por una sola transmisi n simult nea de la pel cula a trav s de sat lite a todas las salas de cine. Este proceso reduce la cantidad de materiales pr cticamente a cero, eliminando los dispositivos f sicos y reduce de manera dr stica la log stica y el tiempo de distribuci n de pel culas a salas de cine, as como el aumento de la seguridad en la entrega.
