demand streaming to our audience
for many years and have recently
started to work with Elemental for
encoding. The servers have proven
reliable and high performing and
we also appreciate the strong
engineering background of the
Elemental team," said Kaj af
Kleen, CTO for Viaplay. "We need
to upgrade our infrastructure
continuously to accommodate
the innovation we see in the video
streaming market and we believe
Elemental is a good partner for
enabling this."
The solution for Viaplay

with the Platform's mpx video
management system.
The system provides easy

enmark's principal telecom
company, TDC, has deployed a
comprehensive multiscreen solution
from Harmonic to deliver time-shift
services with catch-up TV content
through its YouSee and TDC brands.
The total solution includes
Harmonic's ProMedia suite of
multiscreen production and
preparation applications, NMX
Digital Service Manager video
network management solution, and
MediaGrid shared storage systems.
Leveraging its extensive range
of adaptive bitrate technologies,
Harmonic's solution enables TDC
to deliver high-quality streams of
100 channels to more than 1.4 million
subscribers on TVs, PCs, tablets,
and smartphones.

"To enrich our live and VOD offering
with catch-up TV content, we
needed a new video infrastructure
solution that was flexible, scalable,
and capable of supporting a variety
of devices, including our existing
base of deployed set-top boxes,"
said Tom Eltzholtz, Director, TDC.

Harmonic's ProMedia suite is being
used to deliver 100 channels

TitleBox servers, a 32 terabyte NAS
server plus third-party hardware
such as file format converters
and a Panasonic vision mixer.
These have been integrated, with
n+1 redundancy, into Neptun TV's
Constanta headquarters and the

provide us with a one-stop shop
for HTTP packaging, recording, and

seamless. Thanks to Harmonic's
solution, we now have the flexibility
to deliver superior quality catchup TV services to our customers
anytime, anywhere, and on any
device, including our large install

integrated to optimise the delivery
of catch-up TV content for TDC's
multiscreen service.

POL / USA: Poland's largest
commercial broadcaster, The Polsat
Group, is transitioning to an integrated
Avid media production environment.
The move, according to Avid,
is to accelerate production, and
efficiently create, manage, distribute
and monetise Polsat's media assets.
Polsat has now integrated
an Avid Interplay Media Asset
Management system into its
existing Avid infrastructure.
The Telewizja Polsat (Group) has 20
popular TV channels.

LiveU Iberian
Deployments
ESP / POR: RTVE and 13TV in
Spain and Medialuso in Portugal
have deployed LiveU technology.
RTVE utilised four LU70
backpack units supplied by
Overon (part of Mediapro) for its
'Espana Directo' programme.
Meanwhile 13TV, an independent
broadcaster in Spain, has been
using three LiveU backpack
units for its news output.
Medialuso, Mediapro's Portuguese
offshoot, has been using six LU70s.
