Evolution Digital has reached a deal with the NCTC to distribute its eVUE-TV IP video on demand (VOD) service to NCTC member operators.
Evolution Digital's eVUE-TV s designed to deliver thousands of hours of movies and on-demand TV shows, while leveraging IP video technologies to reduce costs for the operator. eVUE-TV aggregates IP linear and VOD across a single interface, and future integrations to the platform include cloud-based services.
The eVUE-TV platform will be introduced as an option for NCTC's members on the newly developed VU-IT! platform, which includes a solution for back office integration, OTT applications and services to enable IP linear and IP VOD. The service will initially be available on TiVo software-enabled devices, but can also be deployed on other platforms, as well as mobile devices. VOD content is uploaded from the cable operator's local VOD sources and transcoded to allow an exact replication of its VOD catalog in IP.
Evolution Digital's eVUE-TV is designed to allow customers on the VU-IT! platform to navigate live and on-demand content on a variety of set-top devices with one remote. Viewers can also access eVUE-TV through mobile devices in the home, including smartphones and tablets.
