Cinedigm Announces Support for the Roku Platform via Matchpoint Blueprint™ App Platform
February 24 2020 - 10:00AM
Cinedigm (NASDAQ: CIDM) announced newly expanded development
support for the Roku® platform via the Company’s highly-scalable
Matchpoint Blueprint™ app platform. The
cross-platform app development framework provides content owners a
comprehensive and robust app development platform, giving them the
power to easily launch well-designed and feature-rich OTT video
streaming apps that are optimized for all major app platforms, now
including Roku.
Matchpoint Blueprint™ apps can now
easily be developed for the Roku streaming players, as well as for
The Roku Channel and a variety of Smart TVs and Roku TV™ models.
Matchpoint Blueprint™
facilitates rapid development and delivers cost-efficient
cross-platform applications with a broad range of features
including integrated billing, configurable content menus, custom
watch lists, in-app notifications and alerts, machine
learning-based recommendations, single sign-on (SSO), DRM, ad
support, advanced analytics reporting, and more—giving content
creators the power to fully develop and launch apps in mere weeks
instead of months, while drastically reducing the amount of time
needed to launch a video streaming app. This makes
Matchpoint Blueprint™ the ideal choice for small
to medium-sized content owners, providing them with the ability to
create advanced custom apps at a low cost with no engineering
experience required.
Matchpoint Blueprint™ also
offers freshly redesigned aesthetics and high usability, making it
possible for users to quickly and easily create detailed opening
video animations, stylish custom backgrounds, and more. In addition
to the Roku family of devices, Matchpoint
Blueprint™ users can find the platform on the web, as well
as on iOS and Android devices—allowing developers to conveniently
stream their growing creations directly from their phones using
Blueprint Plus’s Chromecast capabilities.
The Matchpoint Blueprint™ app
is a component of the Company’s innovative managed-service
technology platform Matchpoint™, a game-changing
service that enables content distributors, OTT service operators,
web publishers, and OEMs to efficiently and cost-effectively create
compelling OTT and media subscription services. The success of the
Blueprint Plus and Matchpoint™
technology has established Cinedigm’s emerging status as the top
experts for advertising-supported platforms, and the Company
continues to employ Matchpoint™’s invaluable
resources to build support for key leading content television
platforms across the globe.
"Cinedigm is committed to building a more
internationally robust platform and launching Blueprint
Plus on Roku devices is a crucial step in helping to
accomplish that goal," said Cinedigm Digital Networks GM Tony
Huidor. “Roku users have responded warmly to our eclectic content
in the past, and we are excited to provide them with another
intuitive premium offering that will help them create high-quality
apps of their own. Aspiring creators and seasoned professionals
alike will benefit tremendously from all that the user-friendly
Blueprint Plus app offers—making what was once a
long, expensive, and often arduous process significantly easier and
more cost-effective, and allowing them to bring their unique
visions fully to life as they get their creations out and to
consumers in far less time than on similar template apps.”
