Triax has announced today that its TDX headend now supports Pro:Idiom, the Digital Rights Management solution from LG Electronics.
Hospitality providers and operators can now distribute end-to-end encrypted HDTV content from Triax headends to LG Hospitality TVs throughout their establishments.
“We’re thrilled to be offering a DRM solution for LG’s Hospitality TVs on our TDX headend,” said Jeroen van der Maat, Global Alliance Partner Manager, Triax.
“The Pro:Idiom system’s high-quality security provides reduced cost compared to solutions with external DRM servers and low maintenance piracy prevention that’s easy to implement on our leading headend platform.”
“It’s a pleasure to welcome Triax as a licenced manufacturer,” added Yannis Pagoulatos, European Head of Hospitality Sales from LG Electronics.
“Triax’s reliable and innovative headends are an integral part of seamless hospitality solutions. By implementing Pro:Idiom®, they now work in perfect harmony with LG Hospitality TVs, systems and third-party professional channel broadcasters, offering ample solutions for our shared hospitality customers and partners.”
The Triax TDX is a modular headend, making it easy to design bespoke TV distribution solutions and offer premium content to hotel guests. The Pro:Idiom DRM is available on a new Triax IP backend module that can be installed in any TDX headend. No additional hardware beyond the LG Hospitality TV is required, and pre-existing headend installations can be easily upgraded with a new IP backend and the 5.0 software.
