Boxer TV Selects Viaccess-Orca's TV Everywhere

Viaccess-Orca has announced that Boxer TV, a Swedish pay-TV operator owned by the Teracom Group, has selected its TV Everywhere solution to extend its DTT and on-demand service offering into the multiscreen environment.

Using a combination of Viaccess-Orca's Connected Sentinel digital rights management (DRM) and Prime Sentinel smart card-based conditional access system (CAS), RiGHTv service delivery platform, and COMPASS content discovery platform, Boxer TV will be able to deliver more than 60 channels of live TV as well as personalised subscription VOD (SVOD) and catch-up TV content.
Viaccess-Orca's TV Everywhere solution allows pay-TV service providers to shape content for subscribers on multiple screens. Boxer TV's new multiscreen service is expected to launch in fall 2014 and will initially support iOS and Android™-based smartphones and tablets.
"Viaccess-Orca has been our trusted technology partner for many years," said Roland Svensson, vice president product, Teracom Boxer Group. "By providing us with a unified solution for multiscreen, encompassing content protection, interactivity and delivery, discovery, and personalisation, Viaccess-Orca will allow us to provide a consistent television experience to more than 1 million subscribers in Sweden and Denmark, anytime, anywhere, and on any screen."
The TV Everywhere solution at Boxer TV will rely on Viaccess-Orca's cloud-based Connected Sentinel DRM platform, providing security for any device and supporting a range of business models to increase revenue streams.
"VO is proud, through its TV Everywhere solution, to enable Boxer TV to fully embrace the dramatic changes in how people consume content and their need to be fully engaged in the TV experience," said François Moreau de Saint Martin, CEO of Viaccess-Orca.
