Deliver a Compelling Experience, Boost Monetization With VO’s End-to-End TV Platform

At IBC2018, VO will showcase its end-to-end, cloud-based TV Platform as a Service (TVaaS) based on user interface from VO partners. TVaaS provides OTT and pay-TV operators with a one-stop solution to deliver multiscreen services across any network. The solution includes:

  • a flexible service delivery platform
  • the VO secure video player, a multi-platform player integrated with major DRMs for premium VOD and live content to enable a compelling viewing experience
  • apps
  • advanced analytics dashboards
  • a unique search-analysis tool
  • state-of-the-art advertising functionality

The fully managed solution delivers outstanding TV services; enables operators to respond quickly to technical, competitive, and business challenges; and manage, publish, personalize, and monetize content on multiple devices.

Enabling Addressable TV With Operators’ Data

With TV advertising revenues being challenged by the digital advertising market, European TV channels see addressable TV as a unique growth opportunity. As a result, operators are finding themselves in a position to enable household-level targeting on their controlled devices and to monetize their audiences. VO and its partners, SoftAtHome and Viznet, are working together to offer a best-of-breed end-to-end addressable TV solution natively compatible with the various EU specificities, in particular, integrating privacy and security by design under GDPR. The demo at IBC2018 will feature VO’s innovative audience management capabilities, and in particular the ability to help operators monetize their TV data.

Content Protection Services are Invaluable Today

VO is bringing its next-generation suite of anti-piracy protection services to IBC2018 that empower operators to combat illegal streaming on the web and collect legally relevant documentation to fight piracy.

In addition, VO’s real-time DRM analytics capabilities will be demonstrated. The AI-enabled detection of service anomalies, such as content piracy incidents, can provide invaluable insights into the operational challenges faced by a premium content service provider. Coupled with a wide range of possible countermeasures, these insights become actionable in near-real time by a security analyst, thereby making a significant difference in service profitability.

VO will offer several demonstrations showing the company’s technologies in action at IBC2018.

These include:

  • A demonstration with Global Technology Group, a leading telecommunications operator in Myanmar, to showcase how the operator is successfully delivering high-quality OTT content, including live and on-demand, for its LaLaKy! service with VO’s TVaaS platform.
  • VO’s deployment with Orange Spain will be showcased with a hybrid Android STB, powering OTT and IPTV offerings. The Orange service is secured by the VO DRM solution and is available on STBs, smart TVs and mobile devices.
