Accedo is well established as a leading developer of multi-screen video applications for some of the largest and most successful pay TV operators and broadcasters in the world, said Dr. Kanaan Jemili, CEO of DivX, LLC.

DivX OmniView enables video distribution and playback across multiple screens, including Android, iOS, Web, PCs, Smart TVs and set-top boxes. Integrated DivX DRM means that OTT services can scale securely across all popular device platforms and support multiple usage and purchase models.
With support for 4K and advanced streaming features, such as multi-language subtitles and audio tracks, chapter points and more, DivX enables OTT services to differentiate their experience, as well as reduce operating costs using HEVC, 4K and DASH. In addition, with major IC and CE manufacturers consistently licensing the latest DivX technology, DivX OmniView enables operators to extend audience reach.
DivX OmniView enables an advanced and differentiated streaming experience, industry-best 4K video quality, and the ability to deploy quickly to multiple devices and platforms thanks to the widely adopted DivX Certification program, said Michael Lantz, CEO of Accedo.
