Thomson's DVB-H Mobile TV solutions pass trials with Orange Spain
Orange Spain pilots Thomson’s head end equipment and Mobile TV service platforms with Viaccess content security
Thomson has announced that Orange Spain has completed successful technical trials using Thomson’s mobile TV solutions in conjunction with Viaccess solution for secured content protection, Purple-TV. The tests, which were started in December 2006, used a range of Thomson’s solutions for mobile delivery, including the SmartVision service platform and Grass Valley Opal IP encapsulators, Argos Mobile encoders and Lazulite management systems.
Serge Mal, General Manager of Thomson’s Network Intelligence Solutions commented “Being part of one of the first ever successful trials using this simulcrypt technology clearly illustrates the compatibility of all Thomson’s solutions for video services delivery. We are looking forward to future collaborations with both Viaccess and Orange Spain.”
“Simulcrypt technology is a breakthrough development in video content protection and this is one of the first ever trials.” Added José Manuel Ortiz, Technology Innovation Director of Orange Spain. “With the completion of positive successful technical tests using Thomson’s DVB-H solutions with Viaccess content security we are looking forward to the next phase of trials in the user environment.”
“Viaccess’ Purple-TV solution allows conditional access to digital Pay-TV content for operators and device manufacturers ” explained Mathias Hautefort, Viaccess CEO. “Thomson and Viaccess are already powering France Telecom’s IPTV services globally and this project in Spain was the ideal opportunity for us to put the interoperability of Thomson’s mobile TV solutions to the test. As Viaccess is reinforcing its presence in the mobile market and strengthening its leadership in Mobile TV security, this successful cooperation will enable us to pursue numerous further opportunities in Europe and elsewhere”.
