MobiTV's True TV Everywhere Solution Recognised at International TV Connect Conference

Online, March 20, 2013 (Newswire.com) - - MobiTV, a global leader in enabling delivery of live and on-demand TV everywhere, today announced that it has been selected as a finalist for the coveted Best Multiscreen Solution award in this year's international TV Connect Industry Awards. The honour is awarded to companies that have demonstrated innovation, excellence and achievement in providing multiscreen TV services that support the delivery of video to several output terminals like TV, PC, tablet and mobile.

MobiTV's True TV Everywhere solution provides operators and service providers with the ability to launch live TV and Video On Demand (VOD), across multiple platforms and devices. The solution can be adapted for seamless integration with existing TV infrastructure and back-end systems for fast time-to-market deployment. Customers looking to extend their content to other platforms can utilise MobiTV's existing ingestion and encoding efforts.

"Consumer demand has increased the need for service providers to provide a truly connected multiscreen offering that extends the delivery of primetime, live sports and VOD content to any device in and out of the home," said MobiTV Chief Executive Officer Charlie Nooney. "We're honoured to be recognized by the TV Connect Awards for our innovative solution that allows service providers to deliver personalized experiences reliably and efficiently across screens."

It is now a necessity for service providers to extend TV everywhere to attract and retain consumers. However, the complexity of navigating the rights landscape and network conditions often becomes a roadblock for service providers looking to deliver beyond the home. MobiTV is the industry leader known for pioneering and innovating delivery models to connected devices even across unreliable networks and tumultuous content rights landscape.

The 2013 TV Connect Awards will be hosted at the prestigious One Mayfair venue in central London. Formerly IP&TV World Forum, TV Connect's rebranding reflects the changing nature of the ecosystem, which has become more convergent and strategic in its focus. This conference reflects the coming of age of the industry, which is moving away from a focus purely on technology, and shifting more towards services and experiences.
