App development platform provider Metrological and the creator of CloudTV, ActiveVideo, are teaming up to provide an innovative OTT solution for Pay TV providers around the world. The new solution will allow providers to activate their services on existing set-top-boxes via the cloud, creating a handy workaround for any potential issues regarding browser compatibility or a lack of full HTML5 support.
Two providers in the Caribbean and Latin America regions are reportedly already gearing up to deploy their services using the cloud-based solution some time in 2018. The joint effort will be demonstrated at the Metrological booth at this year’s Cable-Tec Expo at the Colorado Convention Center in Denver, from October 17th to the 20th.
