Orange has chosen Broadpeak’s Cloud PVR solution for its new network PVR service.
The solution allows Orange subscribers to store content from more than 150 recordable channels. One of it benefits is that in the event of an equipment breakdown or upgrade, the recordings are still available since they exist in the cloud. The solution simplifies the management of recordings, handling ingest and recording of ABR live streams. After recording live content in one video format, the solution packages and encrypts it on the fly in any ABR format, providing Orange with significant storage savings.
Commenting on the development, Yvonnick Boursier, TV technical director at Orange, said: “Video content consumption is rising, and we want to provide our subscribers with the flexibility to record as much programming as possible.
“Broadpeak’s solution allows you to record multiple programs simultaneously while continuing to watch live TV, and it’s all accessible on any screen, whether you’re at home or on the go, for the ultimate viewing experience”.
Jacques Le Mancq, CEO at Broadpeak, added: “Reducing operational costs and increasing engagement with subscribers is extremely critical right now for pay-TV operators.
“We’re thrilled to power Orange’s NPVR service, which is delivering storage cost savings and enabling its subscribers to watch their favourite TV shows anytime, anywhere, on all devices”.
