Both solutions are based on the Exterity AvediaStream range. AvediaStream TVgateways take terrestrial, cable or satellite video and audio and make it available over an IP network as content streams of any definition. AvediaStream Encoders are added to deliver channels from fixed video sources such as Blu Ray players, DVD or digital video capture devices.
Content is delivered to any screen using AvediaPlayer Receivers, or to PCs via Artio Content Clients. AvediaServer, the multi-user IPTV management system, allows full control of what content is available, where it can be seen and by whom.
