Anevia's New Software Head-End to Offer OTT and Virtual Channels

Anevia, a leading provider of OTT and IPTV software solutions, has today
announced the release of the latest version of its Flamingo solution, the
world's first software head-end, which now enables hotels, hospitals and
enterprises to implement innovative viewing experiences through OTT and virtual
channels.

Anevia's Flamingo 4.2, developed using Anevia's inhouse expertise in OTT,
offers a host of new TV services including Web TV, virtual channels and Replay
TV, as well as allowing users to record content.

Thanks to the integration with Infinitum Media's à la carte TV portal (Web
TV), hotels can now increase the guest experience by offering a large choice of
TV channels from all over the world, with cleared license rights.

This new release can also create virtual channels with content that is specific
to the customer's business, including adverts and its own internal programming.
It treats such content as a TV channel within the Flamingo 4.2 head-end, rather
than playing it from a separate media player. This brings organisations
significant cost benefits, as there is no need for a separate HDMI encoder or
media player, and it is easy to update.

The new Flamingo enables Replay TV, meaning that the provider can record
content so that viewers can catch up on their favourite show whenever they
want. No more rushing after work or skipping dinner to watch a scheduled
broadcast.

With the new Flamingo, users can choose to record a programme and watch it at
some future date - without requiring extra hardware.

Moreover, this powerful hybrid head-end enables organisations, such as
hospitals, hotels and enterprises, to cater to the increasing demand for
high-quality video through its HEVC descrambling function. The function has
been field-tested by Canal+ Afrique, guaranteeing compatibility with its
streams.

Ivonne Prugnaud, Vice President Sales Worldwide Enterprise, Anevia commented:
"The world is becoming more global, and the number of international guests at
hotels is exploding. What channels people choose to watch on TV, and in what
language, will vary from country to country. So it's crucial for hotels to
offer a wider range of channels - including Web TV. We're excited to be making
this possible through Flamingo 4.2, with a pre-integrated catalogue of foreign
channels."

Find out more about Flamingo 4.2 when Anevia attends HTNG, Dubai, 11 - 13
March.
