San Diego, CA, September 11, 2014
DivX, LLC, a leading provider of next-generation digital video solutions, and Accedo, the global market leader in TV application solutions, are showcasing a technology demonstration of DivX OmniView with the Accedo VIA reference applications at IBC 2014. Designed to enable over-the top (OTT) services to provide secure, high-quality DivX video playback on multiple devices, including a DivX Certified Samsung SmartTV , the collaboration will be on display September 12-16 at the DivX stand in Hall 5.C10 and the Accedo stand in Hall14.E14.
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. The combination of DivX OmniView and Accedo VIA will enable OTT services to further differentiate their video offering and increase audience reach to the vast DivX Certified device footprint.
Accedo is the partner of choice for pay TV operators and media companies who offer their audiences on-demand access to premium VOD and catch-up TV on popular consumer electronic devices. 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. These are all important features that are highly valued by our customers, and we're excited to work with DivX to demonstrate an advanced video experience that's consistently stunning across screens.
