“Advanced CAS: How to benefit from the content universe”, is the title of the presentation by Yves Padrines, Vice President, Business Development & General Manager NDS GmbH, NDS France, who will speak on Tuesday, 26th of May.
IP and media convergence is upon us. The evolution of the broadcasting markets to implement new services based on advanced conditional access and DRM protection combined with IP and interactivity, enabling consumers a new entertainment experience, is about to take-off in Germany and abroad.
From an international and local German market perspective NDS presents worldwide technology trends, particularities and success factors of new services enabled by the power of IP and the universe of content available – on all four screens: TVs, PCs, mobile phones and portable media players.
Starting from a business model using CA protection and DRM technologies for networks featuring a return-channel such as broadband cable, DSL or mobile as well as satellite/ IP or DVB-T/ IP, NDS explains the main aspects of a hybridisation as the logical consequence to combine broadcast and IPservices and presents international examples of providers embracing convergence and new media services successfully.
NDS’ end-to-end solutions secure digital content platforms around the world and enable new interactive value added services. In Germany and Austria NDS is providing solutions to companies such as Arcor/ Vodafone, Kabel BW, Premiere, Tele Columbus and Telekom Austria.
