Viaccess and Orca announce at the IBC convention in Amsterdam, the introduction of a pre-integrated end-to-end hybrid solution over the open internet for IPTV service providers, content aggregators and broadcasters.

Succeeding the release of the complete end to end solution for IPTV, the new hybrid solution combines digital video broadcasting channels, and advanced interactive services through the Internet, such as progressive VOD downloads, catch-up TV, push-VOD and client personal video recording.

Viaccess and Orca’s new hybrid platform with open Internet functionality, currently on display at IBC, is designed to help enrich the consumer experience, while expanding the reach of next-generation TV services. IPTV service providers implementing the solution will be able to extend coverage eligibility to areas outside their current IP managed network perimeters.

The offering will also position broadcasters to compete against other digital TV providers through sophisticated on-demand and catch-up TV services, allowing viewers to access content at their convenience and watch programs they missed. In addition, the new solution will enable content aggregators to provide a content service with no need for an underlying IPTV network.
