multiple Envivio Three Screens video encoders to launch a new Web TV

“The Envivio Three
Screens solution provides TTNET subscribers with a superior viewing
experience by ensuring exceptional encoding and video delivery with
support for technologies such as Smooth Streaming,” said Metin Olgun,
General Manager of Birtel. “The result is that the new TTNET Web TV
offers video quality to computers and Internet-connected TVs that
exceeds what people have come to expect from satellite TV.”
The Envivio Internet TV solution employed by TTNET, based on the
Envivio 4Caster™ C4 encoders, delivers more than 70 live and on
demand channels to the Web TV service subscribers across Turkey. The
solution directly ingests MPEG-2 satellite sources, eliminating the
need for additional costly and quality-degrading interfaces. The
4Caster C4 encoders supply IIS Media Servers with continuous streams
of Microsoft PlayReady DRM-protected, Silverlight video encoded at
up to HD resolution for distribution to subscribers. The 4Caster C4
systems simultaneously encode video at multiple resolutions enabling
TTNET to use adaptive streaming technology to continuously deliver
video, without interruptions or buffering, as network bandwidth and
other conditions vary. Service reliability, redundancy management
and operational control in the headend are fully integrated within
the Envivio 4Manager™ network management system.
“The TTNET deployment is an excellent example of how Envivio’s high
efficiency encoding and support for advanced features like Smooth
Streaming and PlayReady DRM are enabling operators to innovate and
expand their services,” Julien Signès, President and CEO of Envivio.
“The Web TV service introduced by TTNET creates a new revenue
opportunity for the company by offering a powerful enticement for
consumers looking for an alternative to incumbent services.”
