Vidmind Adds Catch-Up and Multiscreen Linear TV to its Hybrid OTT/DTT Platform

TEL AVIV, Israel, March 31, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --

    Vidmind has partnered with Media Excel to deliver time-and-place shifting of linear TV
channels as part of its turnkey hybrid OTT/DTT solution
[http://www.vidmind.com/hybrid-tv-whitepaper ]. Virtual operators can now utilize existing
free-to air content and offer it to their audience to view at any time and across multiple
connected devices - as part of a Prime TV experience.

    Using Vidmind's platform [http://www.vidmind.com/product/platform ], mobile operators,
ISPs and retailers can launch a Prime TV experience by combining free-to-air and premium
OTT content, and deliver an alternative offering to traditional satellite and cable TV
providers at a minimum investment in technology and content.

    This novel time-and-place shifting capability further enhances the OTT/DTT Pay-TV
offering by providing end-users with access to rich content that matches and adapts to
their individual lifestyle. Live TV, premium VOD and Catch-Up content come together under
a unified TV Everywhere experience.

    The solution transforms live DVB-T TV to linear OTT TV, with the permission of the
content owners, and makes it available on a multitude of connected devices in real time as
well as at different time through the Catch-Up service. The solution is deployed at the
operator's head-end or the Cloud and combines Vidmind's platform flexibility and control
with Media Excel's HERO superior video quality and versatility.

    Both Vidmind and Media Excel will be showcasing the new solution at NAB in Las Vegas.
