theibcdaily Q&A OUTLINED
Muriel Le Bellac, chief executive, Videomenthe Has IBC come at a good time for the electronic media industry? Why?
IBC2017 is a tremendous time to shine the spotlight on these solutions, whether they are from leading or emerging companies.
We are living in an exciting time that is allowing us to push back the limits of processing and making our content available via multiple devices. We should take advantage of this and exploit every solution and every revolutionary method, in a progressive and flexible way, to gain the greatest benefit from it.
What do you think are the key developments in, or threat to, your market sector at the current time? Let’s talk about the cloud then. One of the approaches is to view the cloud as an extension of the on-site facilities. By the way,
this use case was Eolementhe’s [Videomenthe’s media workflow platform] starting point. But the sector is not 100 per cent cloudready. Our answer is to offer standalone and hybrid SaaS modes, in addition to the SaaS mode. So, we propose several options to fit current models and practices by providing sustainable and transitional solutions while being ready for cloud adoption in the near future.
Why should delegates visit your stand at IBC? We have just released a major update: Eolementhe version 4. The interface has been improved so that it is even more easy to use with a complete set of features. We have also extended the choice of partner solutions for processing media files, allowing for seamless integration into the clients’ workflows, whether they are
production or post-production houses, TV channels, a video content platform or journalists. So, when visiting our booth, we will show you how-to run media files workflows from a laptop and a smartphone too. 2.B39

By Ian McMurray A topic of discussion with visitors on the Zenterio stand is how it recently completed the migration to Zenterio OS of the first 85,000 legacy set-top boxes for COSMOTE TV, the OTE Group’s pay-TV platform. COSMOTE TV began delivering set-top boxes based on Zenterio OS in 2015. The service, rebranded as COSMOTE TV in November 2016, is available over both satellite and IP networks, and now has more than 503,000 subscribers across Greece. In 2016, COSMOTE TV introduced its hybrid service, becoming the first operator in Greece to combine broadcast television with content delivered over the internet. Hybrid subscribers gained access to movies and TV series on-demand plus catch-up TV, all delivered through their STBs. OTE and Zenterio worked together to enable these features on the COSMOTE TV platform, with Zenterio developing the updates to the user interface as well as providing the box operating system. In addition, Zenterio acted as the primary system integrator for the project. 5.C11
