Yospace at IBC – This Time it’s Personal
posted:
The unique Yospace approach is based on two key technologies. First, it interfaces closely with the broadcaster’s own playout automation system so it can switch to alternate content with frame accuracy. That means the viewer is never aware that there has even been a substitution.
Second, because the content replacement and streaming distribution are offered as a cloud service, the system can scale to any number of simultaneous viewers and complexity of content replacement. Given sufficient granularity in the subscriber management system, a unique and tailored commercial break can be tailored for each individual viewer. Taken together, the Yospace innovations mean that broadcasters can now support the delivery of linear programming to alternative platforms with a powerful commercial proposition.

“Everyone agrees that multi-screening and delivery to mobiles, tablets and computers is one of the top issues to be debated at IBC this year,” said Tim Sewell, CEO of Yospace.
“Our unique technology is already exciting the broadcasters who are trialling it, and the whole team is looking forward to discussing detailed implementations with broadcasters from around the world at IBC this September.”
