LAUSANNE, Switzerland, September 14, 2015 /PRNewswire/ --



iWedia, a leading provider of software solutions for TV devices to service operators
and Consumer Electronics manufacturers, today announced that it has integrated its
Teatro-3.5 software solution for Android TV Set-Top Box (STB) with the nanoCDN technology

and video-on-demand (VOD) servers for cable, IPTV, OTT, hybrid TV, and mobile operators
worldwide.

The announcement was made at IBC 2015, which is being held in Amsterdam from Friday,
September 11th through to Tuesday, September 15th. Both Broadpeak (hall 4, booth B78) and
iWedia (hall 5, booth B40) exhibit at the show where the integrated solution will be
demonstrated.



Broadpeak's award-winning nanoCDN technology enables operators to extend their CDN
into the home network, leveraging equipment such as broadband gateways, STBs and cable
modems. Through the power of multicast, nanoCDN makes live HTTP video delivery to any
device truly scalable, turning millions of broadband gateways or STBs into active
components of an operator's content delivery infrastructure. nanoCDN implements multicast
support for most popular ABR (adaptive bit rate) formats, guaranteeing a superior quality
of service.



iWedia's Teatro-3.5 software solution for Android TV STB implements iWedia's
ANDROID4TV framework and APIs to seamlessly extend Android and integrate all the multicast,
unicast and broadcast components necessary to give support to managed IPTV, OTT TV and
broadcast TV services. Teatro-3.5 allows access to live TV (over IPTV, OTT, and over DVB),
on demand and catch-up services, recording and time shifting features, as well as to
Google services including YouTube and the Google Play app store.



"TV ops increasingly rely on OTT distribution in addition to multicast and/or
broadcast. At the same time they tend to adopt Android TV STB to enhance their content
offering with a bouquet of apps," says Herve Creff, VP Marketing at iWedia. "Our
Teatro-3.5 STB software is an ideal solution to operate such a STB and the integration of
Broadpeak's nanoCDN technology dramatically enhances the Quality of Experience with
respect to live TV OTT."



"An Android TV STB is obviously an ideal target for the distribution of live http
television using the different popular ABR streaming formats as the framework has been
mainly designed for OTT support. However performances issues may happen with this type of
distribution," says Jacques Le Mancq, CEO at Broadpeak. "The integration of our nanoCDN
technology within iWedia's Teatro-3.5 software solution for Android TV STB solves these
issues as it brings the scalability needed when millions of viewers tune in to the same
live event."
